I have WhatsApp but I only give it out on the day before the photo shoot for last minute coordination. All the planning will be done with e-mails. It's safer and I avoid a double booking. I can send you links to pages and print out the emails.

The first step would be for you to look at my website. I have written a page on scenerios for a surprise engagement. For locations, click on the category for surprise engagements on my blog page. This is a good starting point.

Please look at this website for ideas. Several locations are closed during the winter months. Others might be fence off and cattle grazing on them. It's a good idea to give me an idea of what you are looking for (ie: lake, river, mountain etc.). We can choose the location a day or two before the event when we have a better idea of the weather conditions.

I do get a few time wasters asking me lots of questions and pumping me for ideas. Then they don't use me. I have become secretive regarding locations. Thanks fin advance or your understanding.

I prefer cash for any job under CHF. 500.- paid at the end of the photo shoot.

Sorry. It's impossible to predict the weather because of the temperature on top of the high mountains and the cold water in the lakes. Please don't rely the national weather forecast.

We can change the days for better weather. It will be your decision to go ahead with the photo shoot or cancel. I can take pictures in the rain.

Some locations get busy like the Harder Kulm viewing platform. Or the Iseltwald pier. It also depends on the time of the year. I cannot guarantee that we will be completely alone.

(This was an actual e-mail that I received.) I can't recommend anyone else. Every photographer has his or her own style and price! It's best to search on the Internet. Check their collection of photos on their website. What is the detail like. Are the pictures small or large? Check to see if they do a lot of photo shoots with couples. Do they have a blog with regular updates.

Ich spreche Deutsch, Englisch und Norwegisch

There is no cancellation fee. Please let me know as quickly as possible if you have to cancel.

No deposit if it is under CHF. 500.-. I do not ask for a non-returnable deposit..

I photograph your event. I do not hand the job over to an assistant or another member of the family. Anyone can click a button on a camera. However, composing a picture with the background and creating a good atmosphere makes a good photographer in my opinion.

I normally edit at least 100 pictures on the day of the photo shoot. I create the online web gallery and will send you the link with the pin number. The rest of the images will be edited over the next 2 day depending upon my workload.

Your web gallery is online for at least one month. Your pictures can be downloaded for free in single images or all together in zip file. I create 2 backups of your files and can upload them again at a later date.

No. I don't have the time to answer them. I have no record of what we discussed. All inquiries by WhatsApp are ignored. I only use it for last minute coordination. I will send my number to my clients the day before the photo shoot.

Sorry, my prices are not negotiable. Please check with other photography websites. You will quickly discover how my prices compare with other photographers. Please remember that a lot of the time is with editing the pictures after the photo shoot.

I am very busy during the high season. My prices attract a lot of interest. Lots of work means lots of experience.

Please keep your e-mails short. Long e-mails are normally from a person asking me about locations and with no intention of using my services.
