FAQ

WHICH MOMENTS DO YOU CAPTURE THE MOST DURING THE WEDDING?

When I photograph, I focus on the atmosphere of the moment and spontaneous moments using natural light and shadows. I love capturing details as they connect various parts of the wedding. My favorite part is the ceremony and the photo session. The ceremony is rich in intense emotions, while the session offers a unique intimate moment that is unlikely to be repeated. The atmosphere of that day cannot be replicated in a previous session. I suggest taking at least half an hour for oneself during the wedding. I use flash during wedding parties to achieve cinematic moments, but long exposures are also part of my style. If anyone desires a portrait during the wedding, I am always available to accommodate them.

DO YOU HAVE A SECOND PHOTOGRAPHER WHO WORKS WITH YOU?

During weddings, two photographers work together to simultaneously capture unique moments, details, and emotions from different perspectives.

CAN COUPLES COUNT ON PHOTO SESSIONS WITH FAMILY AND RELATIVES?

Of course! We always agree to photograph sessions with family and relatives if requested during the wedding day. Although there are formal photographs, we are available. However, we do not publish this type of photos on our online channels. It is important to note that we cannot know all the most influential people in your life, so if someone does not appear in the pictures, it is not our fault. My approach to wedding photography is not traditional; I focus on moments and make portraits only if required. I don’t automatically invite every guest to be photographed with you.

DO YOU OFFERS INCLUDE AN ADDITIONAL DAY FOR WEDDING SESSIONS?

Each wedding package includes an extra day for the session if the couple does not have the opportunity to do their wedding session on the wedding day. In most cases, it will be a day or two after the wedding, but some couples decide for a few days before. So it’s gonna be like a little pre-wedding session.

WHAT EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE THROUGHOUT YOUR WEDDING DAY?

I use a Canon R6 as main camera and a Canon 5D Mark III as backup body. For lenses, I use Sigma’s Art series, including a 35mm and a 50mm with 1.4 aperture, as well as an 85mm Canon. During wedding parties, I use Canon SB650 flash and Godox V1N. Also, from this year, I also offer analog photo shoots using my Nikon F5.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE UNMODIFIED PHOTOS?

During the wedding, I take about 3000-5000 photos in RAW format. Next, I make a selection among these photos. However, I never provide photos in RAW format. The number of edited images provided to pairs varies depending on the package you choose.

ARE YOU AVAILABLE TO TRAVEL TO ATTEND A WEDDING AT A SPECIAL DESTINATION?

Certainly! I love to travel and am passionate about photography. I am available for wedding photography services abroad anywhere you desire. There are no limits for me, so feel free to invite me anywhere! I am ready for new adventures!

IT'S POSSIBLE FOR US TO VIEW THE ENTIRE PRIVATE ONLINE GALLERY OF PREVIOUS WEDDINGS?

I have numerous content and photos on my social networks and website, but I respect the privacy of wedding gallery passwords due to GDPR regulations. Some clients prefer to keep certain photos private. On my website, in the "REAL WEDDINGS" section, I showcase complete weddings photographed in Italy and across Europe, with photos approved by the couples. My images cover all aspects of the wedding, including details, preparations, portraits, ceremonies, parties, and bridal sessions. If you are considering hiring me as your photographer, these contents can assist you in your decision.

HOW CAN WE BOOK YOU?

If you like my work and want to book my photo shoots, visit my saramanna.com website and complete the form. You will receive my offer and, if you decide to proceed, I will send you the contract to sign. Prepayment within seven days of signing the contract is required to confirm the booking, with 30% of the total amount of the chosen package. You can pay by bank transfer or PayPal, as indicated in the contract.

HOW LONG DO WE HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION?

After receiving my offer and if you have no questions, you have ten days to make a decision. If I do not receive a response from you within this period, I will consider the date available to other customers. Please ask anything you want to know or tell me your decision, even if it is negative. If several couples request the same date, the one that made the prepayment will be confirmed first. This information is crucial for my organization and to ensure accurate communication with all interested customers.

WHEN CAN WE EXPECT TO RECEIVE OUR PHOTOS AND OUR ALBUM?

For every wedding, I try my best. Every photo is carefully edited and processed with care. Due to the high volume of work during wedding season and travel planning, all printed materials, wedding books and prints included in the wedding collections that take place from April to October will be delivered by December of the same year or the beginning of the following year. Photo delivery takes up to 45 working days, while the wedding book can take 8 to 12 weeks, sometimes even longer.

CAN WE MEET YOU BEFORE WE BOOK?

Absolutely! If you are close to our city, we can meet for a coffee or a drink. I like to get to know couples before the wedding to better understand their expectations and better plan for the big day. Every detail is crucial to get perfect wedding photos. If we can’t meet in person, we can arrange a video call on Skype (Sara Manna) or on whatsapp at +393407204674.
