Archives: FAQs

Where are you based?

I am based in Newcastle, NSW Australia.

I also travel around Australia and overseas to document weddings and elopements.

Do you travel for weddings?

YES! I love to travel and document weddings and elopements. It is one of my favourite things to do.

I am more than happy to travel within Australia or overseas to document weddings and elopements.

I have already been involved with destination weddings and elopements within Australia, Iceland (x2), Italy, Fiji and destination pre-weddings in Hong Kong, Bali, Italy, Scotland and England.

What is your pricing?

My ‘All Day’ wedding photography coverage starts at $3950.00 and includes up to 9 hours of photography.

I have a Price Guide which includes a tonne of information about myself, my photography and the collections I offer my clients.

I also offer custom hours/coverage for those having intimate weddings or elopements.

What is a wedding collection?

Wedding collections are pre-packaged options for you to pick from when booking me. The collections are built around the most requested services/options that my clients look to book each year. I created these collections over the past 10 years to accommodation my clients and what means most to them.

My new pricing guide contains all of the information about my wedding collections and I love to share it!

How do we book you?

Booking is very simple! Simply head to my booking form to get your date locked in – https://www.jackchauvel.com/book/

Your date is secured after I have received a signed digital contract and a booking retainer ($1000).

Your booking will be managed by me via my secure booking website.

Do you offer wedding albums?

I love my wedding albums and showing them off to anyone who asks. They are a beautiful representation of your wedding celebration in something you can hold, touch and enjoy f or many years to come. They become a family heirloom, a one of a kind book that tells your story.

I personally love the feel of holding images in the print form of a wedding album. I like to keep things simple, so I offer a ‘square’ format lay-flat fine art matte albums.

What wedding album options are available?

I offer (as a base) 10″ x 10″ and 12″ x 12″ sized albums which all compliment each other in the way they tell a story. All of my albums come with 45 spreads (90 pages) as standard (which is the maximum size my supplier offers). There are a variety of cover material options (leather or linen) and embossing for you to pick from in customizing your album.

I have samples of each album that I offer, and I am more than happy to show you exactly how awesome they are in person. They can be ordered at any time before or after the wedding day.

Since I design in a square format that can be translated from the largest size, to the smallest; it allows me to produce the one design across multiple formats. From this I can also create parent albums (which are a duplicate of a main album) for parents upon request. All albums include album design and a 3 stage process of design and delivery.

Am I able to purchase an album after my wedding day?

You are able to purchase an album (or three) before or after your wedding day. I have capped the time period at 12 months from the date I deliver your photos for you to take advantage of the included initial design & design change sessions. After 12 months there will be a small consultation fee for us to get together to discuss and design your album.
