Serving the the greater Tampa Bay area and beyond!

Well, that depends on which collection you choose. You might only want one photographer. You might want a team. We will chat about that when you book us. Our 2022-2023 collections will always include me when I am available for the days!  You also have a chance that you might book our team members as well. Our team has been by our side practicing and taking in the way we photograph with of course their personal touch. All of this is discussed in our personal consolation.

We now consider ourselves professional travelers. We live half the year in our new home Tampa/Saint Petersburg Florida along with the New England Area. We are really on the go ! We also love the fall and changing of the seasons. We can fly back and forth on the weeknd's for most of the fall and spring. So what happens if you book a wedding for the summer months in Florida? Simple, we will arrange with you beforehand. A simple flight to Florida is less than 3 hours and any weddings in Florida have no travel cost . What is your travel fee if you are not in our area? If we need airfare/hotel/car rental we will pay for it and just need a reimbursement...

So much fun !

We will take 6-8 weeks to hand-edit your photos. Each photo is individually hand edited. Then they are uploaded to an online album that you can order prints or directly download to your computer or devices (We also recommend the cloud)

You will get a print release. You can print your image anywhere you want. (Unless you picked a collection that didn’t come with digital s.) Jon LaVerde photography keeps the copyright as we are the creator of the images. 

This can be a difficult question to answer. Say there are 2 couples. Couple 1 had an intimate 15-person wedding for 4 hours and couple 2 had a 12-hour wedding with 350 people. Couple 2 would receive more images because their day was longer and they had more individuals to photograph. The answer to this question is we are storytellers. We are here to document your day and tell you a story.

YES, we absolutely do.

One of the best things about wedding albums is that they can make a personalized statement about your marriage. Whether you choose a leather-bound album, one covered in fabric, or even a metal album, it can make a tremendous difference in how your photos are presented. Most albums can be personalized with your favorite image, your shared name, or even a favorite photograph that you select from your special day. By choosing a cover that is personalized, you can make sure that everyone who sees your album knows the value you place on your marriage.

Throughout our history, wedding albums have served as an essential record of a family’s history. Nowhere else can a person find so many authentic photos of relatives and friends engaged in a day full of romance and family attachments. By creating a wedding album, you will be contributing to your family history by ensuring that future generations have a tangible record of how their family came to be over time.

While it may be hard to imagine great-grandchildren so far down the road, it is likely that they could one day have your album passed down to them. Perhaps some of you have seen your grandparent's album and hold it dear to your heart. There are so many incredible things to see, what type of clothes they wore, the hairstyles, the automobiles that were at the wedding, or the other people that were at the wedding as guests or even the wedding party. These are great statements of the time period in which the wedding took place, and will help you reminisce when you are older.

Those who took the time to create a wedding album always report to us the happiness they have once they have an album to capture their memories. With your album, you can quickly show off your wedding photos and talk about your special day. Wedding albums are also a great way to revisit memories on each of your anniversaries.

Whether you are just in the planning stages of your wedding or are searching for ways to preserve photographs of your recent ceremony, it is good to know all of the reasons why a traditional wedding album is better for displaying and storing your photos than other methods.

Although we provide you with digital copies of your images, electronic media can fade. It is simply unable to provide the personalized appeal of a quality wedding album. In order to create a professional family heirloom that always brings back fond memories of your wedding, we help you choose an album that can hold all of the treasured photographs from your wedding day.

It is critically important that you let me know what kind of images you are hoping for from your wedding along with your engagement session. An insightful way to do this is to think of three to five adjectives that best describe the way you would like your images to look and feel. For example: fun, natural, romantic, elegant, classy, urban? (you get the picture--literally!). The adjectives you choose will certainly open up a dialogue for us to discuss your unique vision of your engagement session photographs. If it is a location or a venue we haven't discovered in our photography adventures over the years, we will do our utmost to either visit the location and or venue or gather as much information as deemed necessary to ensure that your images on the day of the event or session are maximized to its fullest.
