Get in touch (via the form on our contact page or email us ~ thewild@kingandopal.com). We'll schedule a time to chat about your vision and plans, write up a proposal, you sign it and return with a 50% deposit, and your wedding date is secured. Bada bing bada boom!

We bring years of experience, partner-vendor relationships, and our unique storytelling abilities to every shoot. During the planning process we are collaborative and accessible for discussing timeline, location scouting, styling, travel logistics, and whatever else you may find helpful as you manifest your vision. Also included is a photography planning session (in-person or video chat) one month prior to your wedding or elopement where we will discuss shot lists and finalize timeline and details. We spend about 85% of wedding day shooting in a photojournalistic style. You will receive all digital edits in an online gallery for viewing, sharing, and downloading.

And YES ~ you can have all of the photos with full printing rights.

Send us a message & we can chat about your specific vision!

We are based in Chicago, Illinois USA & yes, we are always down to travel. In fact, we crave it. We'll go wherever you'll have us!

A ton. Depends on a variety of factors: the package you chose, the weather, number of locations, & most importantly... you!

Generally speaking, for a full day of coverage you can expect between 400 to 700 fully edited images.
For engagement & couple's sessions you can expect up to 40 fully edited images.
Portrait sessions vary according to number of looks, locations, etc.

For weddings & elopements, we do our best to deliver a sneak peek gallery within a week or two, and your full collection within 90 days from the event date.

For any other photo session, you can expect your images within 30 days from our shoot date.

Of course. Happy to provide a venue-specific Certificate of Liability Insurance upon request.

We often shoot together, particularly where simultaneous coverage in multiple locations is desired (i.e. getting ready, before the first look, catching moments from multiple angles as well as reactions). But there are times when only one photographer is needed or preferred, in which case we shoot individually. We'll discuss your vision and needs to determine the best fit!

Not much! We have climbed 50ft ladders, jumped fences to shoot amongst sheep, trudged in knee-high mud, and endured frozen eyelashes just to name a few adventures, all in pursuit of a shot. We enjoy a challenge. =)

We are diligent about proper planning ~ we've always got backup cameras and equipment, and a network of photographers to call on in the event of an illness or emergency. You are in good hands, we're absolutely dedicated to making the photography component of your wedding or elopement as stress-free as possible.

You will have the option to order prints directly from your online King & Opal gallery. We highly recommend a high-quality album or coffee table book to showcase the beautiful photos you've invested in that tell the story of your wedding day or elopement. Together we can create a gorgeous keepsake that embodies your aesthetic and vibe, filled with the images that are most dear to you. It's honestly so worth it.
