Frequently Asked Questions
How can you possibly do both photo and djay services?
I am naturally a multitasker in all aspects of my life. If I'm not doing three things at once I'm bored! The responsibilities of a photographer drop off drastically after the formal photos are done. This allows me to also provide the music. While a song is playing I can go out into the crowd and snap pictures. My camera equipment sits beside me, ready to go, right until the end of the night. I also utilize remotes to control my playlist and my lights if the need be. I have done well over 50 weddings as the photographer and djay and I am yet to have a disappointed client!

When should I book your services?
I always recommend booking ASAP. There is never any pressure but I do not consider a date closed until I have a deposit.

When is the final payment due?
Final payment is due the day of the wedding in the form of cash or cheque (made out to Cameron Shaver). You are welcome to pay the final balance at any time once the final contract is drawn up.

How many pictures will I get?
There is no upper or lower limit for the number of pictures that you will get. On average , depending on how many locations we use, I deliver between 800 to 1200 pictures. You get every great picture that I take! Defining a set limit on the pictures I deliver is silly. I never know how may pics I will take and why would I eliminate a good picture simply because I hit an arbitrary cap?

Do you offer any print packages?
I could offer print packages, or you could do it cheaper yourself! If you don't want to be bothered I can do the printing for you but I am a huge advocate of clients doing things for themselves and saving big bucks in the process!

Are you insured?
Yes! I have plenty of insurance so that everyone is covered in any unfortunate circumstance.

How long will it take to get my pictures?
First, it depends on the time of year or how late in the season your wedding is. I average approximately 90 days for a turn around but I write 120 days into the contract just to be sure.
