Wedding Photography & Videography Services
Trying to find pricing from wedding venders can be harder than finding the Holy Grail. I try and be transparent with all of my pricing. This should be as easy and simple as possible.
Your wedding day is maybe the only time where both sides of your family and friends all come together to celebrate. These moments will be cherished forever. Which sounds really corny, but is a really big deal.
That’s why all wedding coverage I provide will be customized specifically for your day and have no cap on delivered images. There is no photo limit. Any number of images that meet my standard & help tell your story will be edited and delivered.

FAQ
What is your booking process?
Inquire about your availability for your date! All dates are available until they are booked.
From there I love to either meet you and your fiancé for coffee or a video call. This is when we talk about our favorite movies like Star Wars (not the newest ones those suck) and The Lord of the Rings.
$1000 is due at booking to reserve the date as a retainer/deposite. 50% of the total cost is non-refundable. All reminding balance is due one week before your wedding.
Do you have a travel fee?
For weddings outside of the Milwaukee, Madison, and Chicago area there will be a travel fee assessed on a per event basis.
For out of state & international weddings I charge the cost of a plane ticket and three days of lodging. I and any team members need to arrive well before your day to mitigate the risk of any airline delays.
I will travel to wherever you want to celebrate!
Do you shoot film?
Yes. But not always.
I do not guarantee any specific amount of film photos.
There are a million variables that affect this. But if film is a priority for you please let me know!
What camera do you use?
I work with a small variety of cameras and lenses including but not limited to:
Nikon Z9
Nikon Z8
Nikon Zf
Nikon f100
50mm 1.2 is my favorite and main lens. Usually paired with a 28mm, or 35mm. With many other lenses & tools available as needed.
Can we see a full wedding gallery?
Definitely! Just let me know by emailing me at weddings@derrickparsons.com and I am happy to send over a full gallery or two. If you give me your time of year and location info I’ll try and find a similar gallery to send over.
When do we get our photos?
For every wedding I deliver a sneak peek of some of the best photos from the day within 48 hours. Sneak peeks are usually around 20 photos.
Getting everything ready takes some time. All photos are always delivered within 8 weeks.
How many photos will we get?
There is no limit to how many photos I deliver. Any number of images that meet my quality standard and help tell your story will be delivered.
How do we get the photos?
I deliver digital galleries where you can view and download your photos. The photos will be available at the full resolution from my cameras.
The galleries are easily shareable with family and friends. If you would like to see an example just ask!
Do you photograph LGBTQ+ weddings?
Of course!
Drone photos and footage?
Yes! I am a certified SUAS pilot under Part 107.
Weather, location, and timeline permitting, the drones will always fly.
Because of the variables involved I cannot guarantee drone images or photos. However we will always fly when we can.
