Frequently asked questions

hopefully we can help answer any questions you have here, but if not, shoot us an email!

hello@thehornesphoto.com

What makes you unique?

We have a turtle that we rescued, we DIY a lot, we have always lived in Florida, we really like working together from home 24/7 (been doing it since before it was cool/a pandemic), and we have worked with over 100 couples up and down the East Coast.

Where do you live? Do you travel?

We live in Titusville, FL - If you’re outside of Brevard or Orlando, we’ll happily work on a custom quote for every travel situation, depending on distance, time it takes, and available AirBnbs/hotels. Email Kaylee to get more detailed about it.

Do we receive a print release for our photos?

Yes! When you download your images, a print release should download along with it. If for some reason you’ve lost it or it didn’t download, just let Kaylee know and she’ll send one right over.

P.S. While we encourage you to print your photos from our shop and lab, we understand sometimes the budget just doesn’t allow for that! There’s just something special about holding a photo in your hands. Something nostalgic, tangible, and emotionally important happens, which is why we want you to have printed photographs no matter what. We will always include the print release with every gallery we shoot.

How many photos will we receive and when?

4 Hour Package: 250+ photos

8 Hour Package: 600+ photos

Engagement: 100 photos

Quickly! We like a snappy turnaround time. Weddings are delivered within 6-8 weeks. You'll get them in a clean and easy online gallery and can check our Facebook and Instagram pages for the occasional sneak peek! The gallery link can be shared with anyone and it makes it easy to download all the photos, order prints, and pick your favorites.

How does image delivery work?

We will send a gallery that looks like this SAMPLE GALLERY, along with download instructions.

DO you have backup equipment?

Yes! We carry extra cameras, lenses, cards, and batteries with us either on our person or in our vehicle, to access in case of an emergency. We also have umbrellas and extra clothes in case the weather gets crazy.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Feel free to ask if you need verification for your venue or vendors.

Do you backup our photos?

We wouldn’t be able to sleep, otherwise! We back everything up in 3 different ways. Once your photos are finished and all online, we still keep the backups in our system as well. It should be foolproof, but pride goes before a fall, so after we hit send and give them to you, we just pray to God that you download them and save them for yourselves as well, because anything could happen. Please download them. Please back them up for yourselves as well. Please be smart. (Love you, mean it.)

Do we get all the photographs you take?

We will select and edit everything that fits within our guidelines and will give you all the photographs that spark joy, aren’t blurry or featuring closed eyes, and that make sense for the story of your day.

Do you have a Weekday discount?

We absolutely can offer discounts for weekday weddings (Mon-Thurs) - Just mention it when you inquire!

Can we see a full gallery?

YES. Ask us! Is there one in particular? We're happy to show off a full day!

How do we book and pay?

$500 and a signed contract gets it done! INQUIRE.

I have a family! Do you do anything besides weddings?

Absolutely we do. See KayleeHorne.com for more information.

What happens if you get sick on my wedding day? Or there's a HURRICANE?

We have a strong network of photographers who are able to back us up if needed. We're there for them, they're there for us. Being a part of a solid community matters to us, so those relationships are genuine. Within the contract is a provision for us to hire an associate to photograph the wedding on our behalf and then we will edit and deliver your photographs, business as usual.

When it comes to hurricane season, the contract you sign protects and allows us to evacuate and leave a week before your wedding. YES, even if you decide to be risky and have a windy + wild wedding anyway, we, as professionals with thousands of dollars of expensive equipment and safety concerns, have to weigh the choices. If it comes down to such a tough decision, we know in our hearts that we are always going to protect our family, home, and business before we drive out in hurricane force winds and endangering not just our gear but ourselves in high winds and rain. If you’re a local, then you likely understand. We just don’t play around with those acts of God, so feel free to keep the hurricane season in mind as you plan your outdoor beach ceremony in mid-September. ;)

WE'RE AWKWARD, CAN YOU HELP POSE US?

SO ARE WE hah - Welcome to the club! Being uncomfortable is 1000% normal because, really... How often do you have a big camera staring you down?! That’s why we have put a lot of time learning strong, easy, and visually pleasing poses so that we can guide you through a few and you'll realize it's really just a lot of looking at each other or looking at a camera or doing a prompt that Kaylee throws at you! Easy peasy! We’ve got your back.

If you’re worried about the wedding day, let’s set up an engagement session so that you can both catch on to our vocabulary and posing style, we'll catch on to your personalities, and all of us will feel a lot more comfy about pulling out some dumb jokes and having a relaxing time on the wedding day.
