Frequently Asked Questions
Pricing, booking & insurance
How are your prices so affordable?
We are affordable, but not cheap. We don't believe hiring a professional photographer or videographer should break the bank, and your wedding day certainly shouldn't cost you $10,000 to $20,000 just for photography. We keep prices down by how we work: our crews cover several events a day, so we run at high volume instead of charging one client for an entire day; our post-production team includes dedicated editors, some based overseas, who retouch and edit efficiently; and we share people, equipment and systems with our parent company, MacroHype. The result is professional cameras and lighting, experienced photographers and videographers, and careful, professional editing at a price that is published on our website and the same for every client.
Are the pictures edited?
Yes. Every delivered photo gets standard editing: exposure, white balance and color correction. When you book, you can add premium editing ($50 per hour of photography) for detailed retouching, and professional color grading ($25 per hour of photography) for a custom, consistent color style.
Is MacroSnaps insured?
Yes. We are fully insured through State Farm for $1 million each occurrence and $2 million general aggregate. If your venue needs a certificate of insurance, email info@macrosnaps.com and we will send it.
Why is the first hour priced differently from additional hours?
We leave a gap between shoots so our crew always arrives on time, and the time and cost of travelling to your venue is built into the first hour. Photography is $250 for the first hour and $100 for each additional hour; videography is $300 for the first hour and $200 for each additional hour. The minimum booking is 2 hours, and prices are the same wherever you book.
What is your refund and rescheduling policy?
All bookings are non-refundable, because each booking secures the date and our team's commitment. If MacroSnaps can't perform the service because of unforeseen circumstances such as illness or equipment failure, you receive a full refund. Cancellations by the client aren't eligible for a refund or rescheduling. See our Terms and Conditions.
Conferences & corporate events
Can you cover a multi-day conference?
Yes. We regularly cover two- and three-day conferences, with one or several photographers per day depending on how many rooms run at the same time. Send us your agenda and we will plan the crew with you, at the same published hourly rates.
Do you also film the conference?
Yes. Our conference videography team records keynotes and panels and edits highlight recap videos, and we can live stream sessions for remote attendees.
Can you take audio directly from the venue's AV system?
Yes. Where the venue allows it we take a feed from the soundboard so recorded talks have clean audio, and we also run our own backup microphones.
Can you live stream our conference?
Yes. We can live stream keynotes and sessions to your platform of choice. See our live stream service or contact us to plan the stream.
Can you deliver full session recordings as well as a recap video?
Yes. Tell us which sessions need full-length recordings when you book or request a quote.
Do you work with companies that have events in several cities?
Yes. We have our own crews across the US, Ontario and Quebec, so national companies can book consistent coverage for every office or roadshow stop, with one point of contact.
Can you take headshots at our corporate event?
Yes. We can set up a headshot station alongside event coverage. For dedicated headshot sessions, see our business headshots service at MacroHeadshots.
Weddings
Can you photograph a courthouse or city hall wedding?
Yes. Our 2-hour package is popular for courthouse and city hall weddings, including portraits nearby afterwards.
Can we book photography and videography together?
Yes. Many couples book both; book each service online or call us and we will coordinate one crew.
Can you live stream our wedding?
Yes. Our wedding live streaming lets family and friends who can't attend watch your ceremony in HD from anywhere. We send you a private link to share with guests.
