Questions & Answers

What are your rates? How much will it cost me to book you for my wedding?
Since every assignment is very unique and every client has special needs I feel unable to post an hourly rate or a general price for a protrait session/wedding/advertising job. If you feel that my photographic style matches your ideas just contact me – together we will find the package that suits your needs and purse. Wedding overage starts as low as N$ 5000 for a half day coverage.

Will you be able to shoot my wedding even if it is taking place at lodge XY or another remote destination?
I am based in Windhoek but I enjoy travelling a lot. So if you need pictures taken at the coast, the northern regions, Grootfontein, Keetmanshoop, Cape Town or anywhere else – not a problem! Just contact me so we can talk about the details.

How many pictures will you take at our wedding?
I do not limit the number of pictures taken on a wedding. I will present you the best photos of your wedding day, usually that will be 500 to 700 pictures.

When should I start looking for a wedding photographer?
As a photographer who does a lot of wedding shoots I often hear the question: How long in advance should I look for and book the photographer?

Let me try to answer: If you want one specific photographer to take your wedding photos because you like his/her style (and of course photography is all about the style!) it is a good idea to book at an early stage of your preparations. Most weddings take place on a Saturday and a wedding photographer can only shoot one wedding per day. That means he can only do a certain number of weddings per year.

Then of course there are those days with a lot of weddings here in Namibia, like the long weekend in August or during the holiday season in December. These dates are very sought after and I am often booked for them very long in advance. So if you want to tie the knot on one of those days and you want a good photographer to cover it – book well in advance (that’s several months or even longer)!

Will you be available to meet us before our wedding?
Sure, I will gladly arrange a meeting before the wedding to discuss all open issues and talk about all the important details.

Do you offer gift vouchers?
Sure! Giving a gift voucher for beautiful photography is a great gift idea. Just write or call me to find out more.

Which languages do you speak?
Namibia is a big country with diverse ethnic groups and languages. My mother language is German and I also speak English and Afrikaans. I do have some knowledge of Russian and Polish. At the moment I’m also busy learning some Oshindonga, but don’t expect too much yet 😉
