Compare the coverage window
The photographer needs to be ready before you arrive.
Check whether scouting, waiting time, the proposal and portraits all fit inside the booking.
A longer walk to the proposal spot can affect how much time you need.
Check travel and venue charges
Give each photographer the exact address, rather than only saying Hunter Valley.
Ask whether travel is included and whether the venue charges separately for photography access.
Your supplier and the venue should both confirm the permitted arrangements.

Your questions, answered
Is photography usually part of a proposal package?
Some packages include it and others offer it separately; check the coverage duration and gallery details in the written inclusion list.
Can I book a short session?
Ask the photographer about their minimum booking and whether it allows enough time for arrival, the proposal and the portraits you want.
Images show illustrative proposal styles, rather than a specific venue or completed booking.
