Q: Who is Figtree Productions? |
We are a small family-owned photography studio in New Jersey, serving the NY metropolitan area. Spanning two generations and over 20 years experience; Figtree Productions comprises of Joel, Doris, and their daughters Jessica and Danielle. Everything that you see on this website, our images, albums, and even this website itself have all been created in-house by us. We do not hire out other photographers, or use outside designers for our albums, which is highly unusual in this day and age for wedding photography. |
Q: What style of photography do you shoot? |
We get asked this a lot! We are able to offer a blend of both traditional and modern photography with our unique style, guaranteeing a unique perspective on your wedding day. We photograph as a team, which allows us to bring you several perspectives blended into one vision. This team approach allows us cover weddings in a way that cannot be duplicated by one photographer alone and ensures that that all of the beauty, love, raw emotion, and spontaneity of your special day are captured. |
Q: What kind of packages do you offer? |
We offer three very distinct multi-leveled choices: Album Package Coverage - 5 levels of coverage that include 3 photographers, bridal albums, parent albums, thank you cards, wall portraits, engagements sessions, proofs and negatives. Album + Video Coverage - 4 levels of coverage that include the above , plus our unique documentary video coverage. A-la-carte Coverage - Your choice of either a 4 hr , 7 hr or 10 hr day with 2-3 photographers, all the digital files and no albums included. Please click here to contact us today for more information |
Q: What format will our wedding proofs be? |
You will recive your digital proofs on a CD (paper proofs are available for an upgrade). We also provide a web gallery for friends and family to view your pictures online, as well as our unique Slideshow DVD (included in most of our packages). Depending upon the selected coverage you will receive between 400 – 800 color and exposure corrected images to review. We spend an extensive amount of time artistically rendering, color correcting and refining all of our images from the proofs to the final album prints. The Slideshow DVD is a compilation of the best images set to music, and designed by us.
|
Q: Can you tell me more about your "Designer" albums? |
All our albums are designed exclusively by Danielle from scratch without the use of any templates. Each album is custom created for you based on the images that you pick. During the design process, you will be working with Danielle personally. She will send you a mockup of what the album will look like before it is actually produced, with the opportunity to revise the design to your preference. You can revise the design until it is truly 100% your own at no charge. |
Q: Do you take black and white and/or sepia photographs? |
We will give you a mix black & white and sepia photographs along with the color images in your proofs. We can also change a color image to black and white or speia upon request, for no additional charge. Once we know what your particular taste we can determine the ratio of color verses black and white on an individual basis.
|
Q: How do I let you know what groups I want photographed? |
Several weeks before your wedding, we will give you a short pre-information sheet to fill out. It is designed to stirs up your thought process in terms of the events of the day and also informs us of the particular photographic request and desires both you as well as your families have for the day. For formal groupings we do encourage you to have a family member or friend on hand or coordinate; it allows everything to flow much smoother. .
|
Q: What type of equipment do you use? |
Having been photographing weddings for over twenty years, we probably have obtained and used just about every type and size camera to produce our images! In fact, we have an entire display cabinet filled with cameras we've used over the years. Joel and Doris had used medium format 2 ¼ Hasselblad equipment for almost 20 years, until digital photography became the industry standard. Today, we use professional Canon EOS SLR cameras and have never looked back. In short, we are constantly updating our equipment to provide you with the best quality images possible.
|
Q: How many times do we meet before my wedding? |
We provide a complimentary engagement session that should take place at least a month prior to the wedding. We have found over the years that the couples who have experienced our engagment session feel more secure on the day of their wedding that they have picked the best team for photographing their special day. Then, about one month before the wedding, we will meet again to discuss the flow of the wedding day in detail. Of course, we also encourage our couples to feel free to contact us at anytime with questions or concerns.
|
Q: What is your pricing? |
Our pricing is based both on the amount of detail we spend on your wedding as well as the particular products that you select. A-la-carte coverage starts at $2500; album packages start at $4,000; and combined album packages with video coverage start at $6,000. Please contact us more information or to set up a a presentation at our studio where we can discuss pricing and products in more detail.
