FAQs
+ Why did you get into photography?
Fortune and glory kid, fortune and glory. For real? No! During the two years before Brittany started the business there were many important life moments for family and friends that were being photographed and unfortunately for several close friends those photographs fell short of expectations. Those friends, knowing that Brittany had been photographing landscapes and portraits for fun, asked her to reshoot their own images. They were beyond thrilled with her work and that's where she decided to never let anyone feel as let down as those friends. Dean joined in the business a few years in by carrying gear. From there he moved into grabbing a spare camera to have a little fun and he too fell in love with photographing. Now he takes events on his own and has his own projects! There's way more details on our about us page, we just had to work in an Indiana Jones quote somewhere.
+ What kind of gear do you use and are you insured?
We use Sony for both our photo and video work. You can find us both typically working with two cameras each at a time with extra backups on hand as well. Insurance – yes! All of it. Gear insurance, Liability Insurance, etc. If your venue needs that information, let us know! We will have our agents get that to them right away.
+ Do you backup files?
Yes! Our cameras all record to two memory cards at a time. When we get home from your wedding the cards get split up into two different locations and the images backed up on our computer, external drive, external drive in a waterproof/fireproof safe, external drive off-site. And when we finish editing your images – those finished files go online as well. Backing up files is kind of an obsession of ours.
+ How much does photography cost?
That’s a good question. If you’re looking around online you’re probably seeing a wide range of prices. We’ve priced ourselves based on experience, years in the business, quality and services we provide. For family sessions we start at $925 and include the digital files. For weddings we have a wide range of options. Our elopements start at $2600 while our full weddings start at $5100 with the average investment between $6500-$7300. For full details please reach out for a customized quote.
+ What about videography?
We love covering weddings with video as well. Right now we are offering video in conjunction with our single photographer package where Brittany is your lead photographer and Dean your lead videographer. If you'd like to have Brittany & Dean as your 2 photographers we have partnered with some amazing videographers we work a lot with to create a custom package!
+ What about including an album?
Over the years we've added in and removed albums from our collections depending on trends happening. But we are team albums. Why? We value albums in our personal life so much - why wouldn't we want them for our couples. Every year we spend about a month putting togther a family album for us and then specialized ones for any vacations we took. They're treasured by everyone in our home and we want you to feel the same way when you share your wedding. Sure, you can show everyone a USB drive or an online gallery, but the album tells your story!
+ Who do we get when we hire Two Adventurous Souls?
We are a wife and husband duo so you get us! We are also expanding with more options with our Associate Photographer collections. When you select your collection there's no "bait and switch" you might see with some larger, multi-photographer companies - with us, you get us!
+ What do you wear when working?
Another great question! For weddings we usually like to blend in and look like a guest. Depending on the weather Brittany is wearing a dress or dress pants and a shirt. Dean loves his bowties so he's usually in a suit. For family sessions Brittany is usually in something a bit more casual as she's laying in the sand, playing in the ocean, maybe even climbing a tree to capture those fun family moments.
+ Do you charge travel?
There are no travel fees for sessions in New England and during our season in Costa Rica. Exceptions might be for multiple day events or on the islands where coverage ends after the last boat for the mainland leaves. For anywhere outside of those areas – lets chat! We are always excited to go new places as it really stokes our creativity.
+ I’d like to customize a wedding package, can I do that?
Certainly! Lets talk. We offer 1 & 2 photographer and videographer packages from elopements all the way through multi-day events. Let us know what you're looking for and we can create something just for you!
+ What if you get injured or can’t make our date?
Brittany has photographed weddings while having morning sickness every three hours, to nursing, to photographing with a sprained ankle – all without missing a beat! If an emergency/injury comes up we will try our absolute best to make your day. We have a network of photographers with a similar style to us we can count on to step in for one or both of us in an emergency and the unlikely event that one or both of us can’t make it. We would still handle all the post-production editing to ensure the images reflect the style you booked!
+ Do you have any vendor recommendations?
Absolutely! After you book your wedding with us, we send along a list of recommended vendors. With our connections to weddings across the country and internationally we can connect you with awesome vendors in any area!
