Questions
Packages
What are the packages available?
Please view our current photography and videography
package page
for details. For pricing and rates, do email us at
info@weddingclips.com.
We
can also customize our packages to suit your event.
How early should I book a package?
About 4-6 months before your event date is a good time to book.
The bookings are on first come, first served
basis, so if your wedding falls on a popular date (such as blackout
dates), it is best to book even earlier to avoid disappointment.
The busiest months for us are June, November and December. If
you book a photographer for your wedding now, you will lock the
package price quoted to you. Bookings
are confirmed by making a 50% deposit.
How much will a 2-day, 3-location wedding photography/videography
service cost?
For customized wedding packages, please
contact
us.
What are the additional charges that I have to be aware of?
The number of hours in a package are for service within 1 day.
Additional hours are chargeable, as are packages split over more than 2 days
(or more), off-island locations and the "midnight
shift" (11
pm to 7 am).
It is assumed that the couple provide transport
for the photographer when moving from
one location to another throughout the day of the wedding. If not, the photographer
may claim transport fee to get from one location (e.g. bride's house) to another
(e.g. hotel).
Why is my package price different from so-and-so who booked with you last
year?
Our prices may vary due to date of event(e.g. blackout dates), ongoing
promotions and custom package inclusions. Our package pricing are also revised
periodically to reflect current market rates. However, we pride ourselves on
giving you the best value so what you get is a fair price for the quality we
are offering.

CD
Photos are saved in
.jpeg format on a DVD-R disc to be read on
a DVD-ROM drive of a computer. The photo disc
is not meant to be played on a DVD-player,
although it is possible to do so on some newer
players. The photo disc is the
digital master copy of your photos.
It is advised that you make copies of the disc
for safekeeping and use the copied disc when
redeveloping photos at the photo lab.
For videos, footage is saved as a DVD movie
file on a DVD-R disc and is playable on both
computer drives and DVD players. There may
be some compatibility issues with playing DVD-R
on early DVD-player models which only support
DVD+R format. If
this is a problem, we will re-burn the footage
on a DVD+R disc. Currently, there is no single
standard format for recordable DVD.
