Frequently Asked Questions

How do you describe your style?

My photography style is photojournalistic, cinematic, and authentic. Every image will be captured in a way that is artistically done, yet true to the moment.
My professional style is a concierge-level of service paired with friendly confidence. Whether it's in the time leading up to the day or the day of, I know how and when to make requests, and when to fade away into the background.

Do you offer engagement sessions?

Absolutely! Often engagement sessions are added to our wedding packages, but we also offer this as an a la carte service starting at $1000 for a 90-minute session and approximately 100+ images.

You offer both wedding photography and videography?

Yes! Lux Everlasting is a Chicago wedding photographer and videographer, and most couples book both. The Modern Suite includes a short "Featurette" film, and custom video packages are available for any collection.

How much do your wedding packages cost?

Wedding photography and videography packages start at $4200, with the full Heirloom Collection at $8400. Reserved rates are available for elopements, winter dates, and weekdays.

How do we book your services?

Once we confirm availability and discuss details, and you'll receive a custom quote (or two) for review. Once you accept, pay your $1000 deposit, and sign your contract your wedding date is reserved for Lux Everlasting services.

How many images will we receive?

Final image count can vary based on guest count, timeline, and other details. For digital photography most couples receive about 800+ images, with modern full wedding days resulting in 1000+ images.

When can we expect our images?

Your Signature Set (a special, handcrafted collection of my personal favorites) is usually delivered in about 1 to 2 weeks. All images will be delivered in about 4-6 weeks. All videography is delivered within 4-12 weeks.

How do we get our images?

For digital photography, your images will be delivered digitally via your own personal online website. This gallery will be available online for one year. Please note though, with our Archival Backup service, I will keep a copy of all your final images for safekeeping in case you need to re-download them.
