YayWe are so excited to capture your BEST DAY EVER! After you have contacted us and we have discussed your wedding plans, we will schedule your complimentary consultation to meet you and discuss the package options that will best suit your wedding vision. This meeting gives us a chance to get to know one another and gives you a chance to ask any questions you might have and alleviate any possible concerns. To book any wedding, or event on our calendar we require a retainer fee of $500. The final payment on the balance is due 30 days prior to the wedding date. Once you've selected the wedding package that works best for you, your wedding agreement has been signed and the wedding deposit received, we are able to book your date and your experience with Verola Studio begins!
Yes, Verola Studio LLC is a professional photography company licensed by the State of Florida. We are fully insured for the highest general liabilities that even the largest of the Five-Star Venues require. If your venue requires a Certificate of Insurance, please have them email us directly.
Absolutely! Each online gallery that our clients receive is set-up with a direct printing service feature, and any images that require custom editing can be ordered through the studio. We offer a wide variety of canvases, print products and our favorite Italian albums that are available to order through our pro photo lab. And remember, you receive a print release for personal printing of your gorgeous wedding images.
We prefer to shoot 60-90 minutes prior to sunset. The so-called "golden hour" really makes the photos so romantic! We love shooting at locations all over Indian River, St. Lucie and Martin counties and in new destinations (this will involve a travel fee). Engagement sessions are 1 hour at the most, and we recommend two outfits (a casual one and a dressy one). Keep in mind the location in which we are shooting and try to coordinate your outfits with each other while complimenting the location. We recommend solid colors and outfits that make you feel the most confident!
Once you book with us, we will send you a questionnaire to fill out with all your fun details! Once we receive this back we can set up a call or meeting to finalize your photography timeline. We are always here along the way and love to be apart of your planning process prior to the final timeline being put into place. It allows everyone to know how the photography will be captured. We also ask that you provide us with a list of family groupings desired for the portrait session.
Wedding portraits normally take at least 1 hour on the wedding day depending upon the number of must-have family formals, persons in the photographs, and location of your formals. If you have different locations, please remember to allow the necessary travel time. We usually request about 20 minutes for family formals, 20 minutes for the wedding party and 20-30 minutes for the romantic session with the bride & groom. The best time to do these is 1 hour prior to sunset but it also depends on if you are doing a first look or if you are having a traditional ceremony. We would love to speak with you about the perfect timeline for your unique day, so don't hesitate to contact us with any questions!
A first look is a moment when the bride and groom see each other for the first time prior to the ceremony. This is an intimate moment between you two. The decision of doing the "first look" is entirely up to the couple, however, many couples now are opting for a first look to get all the formal pictures done early and be able to enjoy spending time with their guests during the cocktail hour. A "first look" is important if you are planning on having a sunset ceremony and leaving little to no daylight for pictures after. Benefits of a "first look" include time alone together before walking down the aisle, emotional reactions, and feeling refreshed and not as nervous for the actual ceremony!
The Online Galleries are guaranteed to be hosted for at least three months. Your gallery is the most convenient way to easily share your photographs with family & friends. Simply provide them the link and the password. We try to keep the galleries hosted longer, but due to the storage considerations, we do have to delete the gallery from the server at some point. This is usually after a few months, allowing you to enjoy the gallery with all your guests, and to give you time to set up a favorites folder of the images you would like to see in your wedding album.
As a professional photography company, Verola Studio retains the full copyrights at all times of all the images captured at any event or session. We retain copyright of all the images taken on our cameras for marketing. We release the print rights to the client(s) that hire us for their individual sessions and events for the completed digital JPEG images that are retouched and delivered to them. The print release is meant for private use only so if you use any of the images anywhere, we kindly ask that you provide us credit on the photographs.
After the delivery of the final product, You (the client) are fully responsible for the back-up of your completed images for the future. Yes, we retain all the completed & delivered photographs for up to ONE (1) CALENDAR YEAR after the date of your wedding, session, or event. We would be more than happy to advise you on many ways to protect your images for the long-run: print the images, burn a CD, DVD, and a thumb drive of the digital images in multiple places, place a copy of the digital files in a safety deposit box, place the digital images on multiple flash drives, external hard drives or cloud storage.
