Frequently Asked Questions

1. What types of photography do you offer?

We capture life across stages and styles — Weddings, Maternity, Newborns, Toddler milestones, Christenings, Puberty, Engagements, Pet Shoots, Portraits, Modelling, Corporate Events, and more. From a 1-day-old baby to 90th wedding anniversaries — we frame every story with care.

2. Where are you based? Do you travel?

We're based in Chennai but shoot across India and worldwide. Be it a temple wedding in Kumbakonam or a destination shoot in Bali — we’re always destination-ready.

3. How early should I book?

For weddings and large events, book 2–4 months in advance. For portraits or personal shoots, 1–2 weeks’ notice is ideal.

4. How do I confirm a booking?

Simply contact us via our website, WhatsApp, or Instagram DM. We’ll understand your need, block the date, and initiate booking with a 50% advance.

5. How is your pricing structured?

Pricing depends on event type, number of sessions, crew strength, travel needs, and deliverables. We don't follow rigid “silver/gold/platinum” packages — instead, we offer customised solutions that match your story.

6. Do you offer photo albums, prints, or frames?

Yes. We offer premium albums, wall-mounted canvases, storybooks, and bespoke frames. Physical memories that you can touch, feel, and gift.

7. How long will it take to receive my photos/videos?

Delivery takes 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the scale of the shoot. We also offer express delivery (at an extra charge) for urgent requirements.

8. Do you provide RAW images?

No, we don’t share RAW files unless it’s part of a prior written agreement. We deliver high-res, professionally edited files that reflect the Bephotoed signature style.

9. I’ve never done a shoot before. Will you guide me?

Of course. We’ll guide you through poses and expressions, and make you feel comfortable. Many of our clients are first-timers who leave feeling like pros.

10. Do you help with outfit and styling ideas?

Yes. Sai Suraj is a certified Image Consultant, so you’ll get suggestions tailored to your body type, skin tone, and the story we’re telling through the shoot.

11. How long does a typical shoot last?

  • Newborns: 2–3 hours (with breaks)
  • Maternity/Couple Portraits: 1.5–2.5 hours
  • Pet Shoots: 1–1.5 hours
  • Events: Based on the itinerary
We keep it natural and unrushed.

12. What if the weather ruins my outdoor shoot?

We always keep a backup plan. Either we reschedule or shift to a cozy indoor/studio setup. Your story matters — rain or shine.

13. Do you shoot LGBTQ+ weddings, intercultural unions, or non-traditional ceremonies?

With all our heart, yes. At Bephotoed, we celebrate love without labels. We proudly shoot LGBTQ+ weddings, intercultural stories, and all expressions of identity and celebration. Everyone deserves to feel seen.

Yes please! We adore pets and even offer exclusive pet portrait sessions. Bring their toys, treats, or even a tiny costume — we’re ready!

15. Do babies really smile in shoots?
