FAQ

CBP Associates are professional photographers that have trained with and photographed with myself so that they learn my Colleen Bies style of photography. They are there to document your engagement session and wedding day, while you still get all the perks of having me help with your wedding day plans, timeline planning, and post processing and delivery of all your beautiful images. They are wonderful all on their own, or as an alternative should I not be available on your day.

what is a "cbp associate"?

Booking is made as simple as possible. To be fair to everyone, I take weddings on a first come first serve basis. A signed wedding agreement along with a 30% non-refundable booking fee is required to reserve your wedding date. Weddings with each photographer are limited to 2 bookings per month.

HOW DO I BOOK YOU AS MY PHOTOGRAPHER? 

After each photo event, we'll meet up to review  your images and choose your forever items whether it be an heirloom album, framed prints, or fine wall art. Engagement photos are ready within 3-4 weeks while wedding images will be ready between 4-6 weeks. You'll see a sneak peek on social media after so your session to have something to peek at while you wait.

when do I see my images? 

Challenge accepted! Fear not my friend. Part of why I love what I do is my ability to really get to know you both and to help showcase your naturalness. Real smiles and laughter and love all around. Let me help you remove that stigma eh?

what if I'm super weird and awkward in photos?

All your final images will be cared for and edited to the my standard editing. That includes composition, cropping, exposure and color. Any extensive photoshop work such as "airbrushing","body contouring" or removal of objects etc are extensive time consuming work and thus is an additional cost.

Will you "airbrush" my photos?
