QUERIES

WHAT KIND OF GEAR DO YOU USE?


I have stuck with Nikon since day one. And let me tell you - this is the best decision I have ever made when it comes to gear! Their low light performance is incredibly good with fast focusing and natural color rendition. Never miss a moment!

I personally like to shoot with two cameras during weddings or big events. I use a Nikon D850 as my primary camera with a Nikon D750 as a secondary for my photographs. All videos and cinematography are filmed on Nikon Z6 or Sony A7 range of cameras. My favorite lenses are: Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8 and the Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8, the ones I cant live without. I also prefer to use 35mm, 50mm and 85mm primes along with a 105mm for the macro and closeups. All members of the ADP Team use full-frame DSLRs or mirrorless cameras from Nikon or Canon or Sony with all the latest "techno-geeky" features.

We nearly always like to use a lighting system for those dramatic and creative shots. We believe Godox has the best products ranging from speedlights to studio strobes as well as videolights. We love using their AD200pros and SL60w lights along with varied collection of softboxes and Magmod light modifiers.

Also to make all the videos and cinematographs, we use a range of specialized equipments starting from motorized gimbals, sliders, drones, Go-pros, etc.

HOW DO I KNOW MY IMAGES ARE SAFE?


Trust us, this is the worst nightmare for any photographer and we often lose a night's sleep at the thought of important photos getting lost or corrupted. But we follow a fool-proof system to prevent that from happening. All images are stored as copies on two SD card when captured on camera and we always backup the images to multiple hard drives. And there are strict redundancy checks involved so that nothing goes amiss. All the images ready for delivery, are transferred to you via Cloud drives like Google Drive, One Drive, etc. which are completely secure from data loss. We always advice you to download and store a copy or two in your local drives for safe-keeping.

HOW WILL YOU TRANSFER THE MEDIA TO ME?


Due to the recent pandemic scenario, we have completely migrated the process of transfering photos and videos, ONLINE. We share all the promised media over in the "My Deliverables" section of your profile (which you will get on this website, once you book our services). The media is shared over cloud drives like Google Drive, One Drive, Dropbox, etc. and are retained for 6 months for you to download them for your own storage or use. However, in some rare scenarios, it may be possible to transfer or post the media using hard drives or media drives.

All photo-albums or physical deliverables will be delivered via post.

CAN I HAVE ALL THE RAW OR UNEDITED IMAGES AND VIDEOS?

Why do all the hard work when I am here for you? I will cull and curate all the images and videos and edit them to look the best, before transferring them to you. But yes, if you really want to have all the raw media, I will set an appointment when we can meet up and transfer the media in form of any physical media drive like pendrives, harddisks, etc.

HOW MANY PHOTOGRAPHERS AND CINEMATOGRAPHERS WILL BE PRESENT AT MY EVENTS?

 

The number of ADP Team members present at your event or coverage will depend primarily on the extent of your events and the coverage required and also on the type of package you choose for your events. But not to worry, we will always suggest and recommend the number of photographers in prior discussions. Also there will always be a second or backup photographer ready anytime for replacement in case the situation arises.

CAN I ADD HOURS OR DAYS LATER ON IF I THINK I NEED MORE?

Sure, why not! You can always add extra hours or days to your packages based on changes in your itinerary or schedule. If we are available for the extra coverage, we will never let any of your events go amiss. And if you feel unsure about your timeline or coverage, lets quickly plan an appointment or chat with us to get a clearer picture.

HOW DO I BOOK YOUR SERVICES? WHAT HAPPENS ONCE I BOOK?
