There is no limit to where we will travel for a great story! We love to travel, and shooting in new locations is always exciting and inspiring. With that being said, we do charge a small travel fee for weddings outside of our local area.

For weddings, a non-refundable deposit equal to 40% of your final package price is due at the time of booking. That secures your wedding date in our calendar and covers us for any potential losses if you were to cancel for any reason. The remaining 60% is due within 48 hours of your wedding day. We accept payment via credit card, cash, cheque, or e-transfer.

Once you book with us, you are provided with our Planning Stages Questionnaire, a simple and fun form for you to fill out that lets us know a little more about you. We use the answers to develop a plan/timeline for the wedding/session so that we are properly prepared and organized. For the wedding/session, we make sure to arrive early in case we were to run into any issues on the way. Once the wedding/session is complete and we have returned home, we immediately back up all of the RAW images from the day on 2 separate external hard drives. All of the photos are now in 3 different locations (the 2 hard drives and the memory cards). Once the editing process begins, we cull the images. In other words, we search through all of the images to pick out the best photos. From here, we pick and edit a few to deliver to you as "sneak peaks". We then individually edit each of the remaining images in the collection to perfect them. Near the end of this process, we often post a blog of the day on our website. Finally, we deliver the full collection to you via online gallery and/or USB flash drive.

We personally edit all images individually using the the latest Adobe Lightroom software and techniques. We occasionally use Adobe Photoshop as well, if there is something that we simply can't accomplish within Lightroom. We are constantly striving to learn and improve our editing techniques and skills through workshops and other information sources. The purpose of editing is to retouch and enhance each of the images to ensure a style that is consistent throughout the day and that best represents the mood and the couple.

Sessions are edited in the order that they take place. Editing takes up a significant part of the photo delivery process, and we take it very seriously. We are perfectionists, and each delivered image is individually edited and fine-tuned by us to represent our style and the feel of the day. The length of time that this takes varies based on the number of images in your package, the time of year, and the other sessions in the editing backlog. To make the wait a little more bearable, we always provide a few sneak peeks and a blog post before the full collection is delivered. Typically, our clients receive their full wedding collection within 4-5 months from the wedding day. Trust us, it's worth the wait :)

We always try to get you a handful of "sneak peeks" within a week of the session or wedding via online gallery. Your full collection of post-processed images as outlined in your contract are delivered via online gallery and/or USB flash drive.

As part of the contract, Sage & Sea Co. retains the copyrights to all of the images that are provided. As the client, you receive personal printing rights, meaning that your are free and able to print your own images. You can also of course share the images with family and friends. If you wish to share the images publicly, please credit Sage & Sea Co. by linking to our Facebook page or website.

Yes! You can absolutely post the images publicly, but please don't forget to credit Sage & Sea Co. by providing a direct link to our Facebook page, Instagram, or website. Also, please do not apply any additional filters or make any adjustments to the images before posting them publicly online. We hope you understand that we spend a lot of time perfecting each and every one of your images, and it is important to us that our images that are publicly posted accurately reflect our work.

As part of the contract, you receive the printing rights to all of the images that are provided in your collection. That gives you the right to print your own. We are also able to provide professional prints, albums, and canvases at additional cost.

We love to shoot with natural light. For natural light photography, often the best time is during the last few hours before and shortly after sunset. Photographers call this the "Golden Hour" because of the perfect natural lighting conditions. Shooting at this time also helps us to avoid harsh daytime sunlight, which often results in squinting eyes and shadows. During weddings, we scout out perfect spots that will allow us to avoid the harsh sunlight conditions if necessary. And we always try to take advantage of "Golden Hour" to get some epic sunset photos with you as well.

We will retain backups of your raw and edited photos for at least 2 years from your wedding date. Due to the extensive amount of storage space required to store all of the photos, we cannot guarantee that your photos will be backed up beyond 2 years after your wedding date. We advise that once you receive your photos, you take the necessary steps to back up them up as well.

Once you book with us, you are provided with our Planning Stages Questionnaire, a simple and fun form for you to fill out that lets us know a little more about you. This is where our brainstorming begins. We use the answers to develop a plan/timeline for the wedding/session so that we are properly prepared and organized. We often have a bit of an idea about what the edited film(s) will be like before we even start filming. For the wedding/session, we make sure to arrive early in case we were to run into any issues on the way. Once the wedding/session is complete and we have returned home, we immediately back up all of the RAW videos from the day on 2 separate external hard drives. All of the videos are now in 3 different locations (the 2 hard drives and the memory cards). Once the editing process begins, we cull the videos. In other words, we search through all of the videos to discard any unusable ones and to pick out the best ones. Here, the editing process begins. We extensively search for music that will match the mood/feel of the video. We then edit the video clips and audio together into a seamless film that represents the story of you and your day. Near the end of this process, we deliver the edited film(s) to you on a private online gallery so that you have the first chance to see it. Then, we often post a blog of the day on our website. Finally, we deliver the edited film(s) and raw footage (if applicable) to you USB flash drive or external hard drive.

We personally compose and edit our films using the Adobe Video Editing Suite (Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Audition). We are constantly striving to learn and improve our editing techniques and skills through workshops and other information sources. The purpose of editing is to compose, colour grade, stylize, and enhance each of the videos to ensure a style that is consistent throughout the day and that best represents the day and the couple. We also edit any audio used in any of our edited films using the latest audio editing software and techniques.

Sessions are edited in the order that they take place. Editing takes up a significant part of the video delivery process, and we take it very seriously. We are perfectionists, and each delivered film is individually edited and fine-tuned by us to represent our style and the feel of the day. The length of time that this takes varies based on the films that are being provided, the time of year, and the other sessions that we have in the editing backlog. Our typical turnaround for a 4-7 minute highlights film is 4-5 months after your wedding day. Trust us, it's worth the wait :)

Your edited films will be delivered online and through USB flash drive or external hard drive (depending on the sizes of the files that are provided). Some of your edited films can also be downloaded direcly via our Vimeo page.

Raw footage is the audio and video files straight out of the camera or recording device. Raw footage is provided as is, straight out of the camera, and unedited in any way. We are low-aperture cinematographers, shooting in a shallow depth of field to maximize the cinematic look to the footage. We also need to be very mobile, so we use a tool called a monopod, rather than a tripod. For these reasons, parts of the raw footage can be shaky, out of focus, or moving, as we move in between cinematic shots. Special parts of the day, such as the ceremony and speeches, are filmed both cinematically and using a tripod, resulting in both cinematic shots and stable, continuous shots.

Raw footage is included in your final package on a portable external hard drive, which is included in any of our film or combined packages.

As part of the contract, Sage & Sea Co. retains the copyrights to all of the edited films that are provided. This protects us in case someone were to attempt to make money off of any of our films. You are able to share the films privately with family and friends. If you wish to share the films publicly, please credit Sage & Sea Co. by linking to our Facebook page or website.

Yes! You can absolutely post the edited films publicly, but please make sure to credit Sage & Sea Co. by providing a direct link to our Facebook page or website. Also, please do not apply any additional filters or make any adjustments to the edited films before posting them publicly online. We hope you understand that we spend a lot of time perfecting each and every one of your films, and it is important to us that our films that are publicly posted accurately reflect our work. Also, please do not post any raw video footage online without our expressed, written consent.

We will retain backups of your raw footage and edited films for at least 2 years. Due to the extensive amount of storage space required to store high quality video and audio footage, we cannot guarantee that your raw footage and edited films will be backed up beyond 2 years after your wedding date. We advise that once you receive your edited films (and raw footage if applicable), you take the necessary steps to back up the footage and films as well.
