Help you to get some answers
How do we book you?
1. Reach out to me
By filling out the contact form (or direct email, Instagram DMs, etc) with your date, your idea and questions that you have.
2. Let’s talk!
I offer free consultation call to help answer your questions. This is a great chance to know each other and know if we are a good fit. It helps you feel confident to move forward.
3. Confirm your date
Once you feel we’re the right fit, we’ll move forward with signing a contract to confirm your date. I only require a 35% retainer fee to start.
How will we receive our photos? How long does it take?
A private online gallery with high resolution edited images will be delivered to you for viewing, downloading and storage. A sharable online gallery is available upon your request.
Your edited gallery will be ready:
– in 5-6 weeks from your elopement, wedding, vow renewal day.
– within 4 weeks from your family, engagement session and couple session.
If I could deliver your full gallery in 2 weeks, I would definitely do. But from my practice over the years, I would rather my clients wait 6 weeks for a pretty gallery than 2 weeks with rushed editing.
Sneak peak gallery will be delivered within 48 hours from your wedding day / photoshoot so you can rewind your moments and shared them with your loved ones.
Do you photograph engagement session or just weddings and elopements?
Yes. I photograph engagement (pre-wedding) session.
These are my main type of photography services: elopements, intimate weddings, family portrait, family event, engagement, couple portrait and couple proposal in all around Vietnam.
What is your approach to weddings, elopements?
My approach is STORY-TELLING. I will get to know you first, then will guide you, help you to feel comfortable in front of the camera so I can capture important moments, portraits and any candid moments in between. I also photograph people, elements that matter and relate to you & your day in order to tell a story about your special day that reflects your vision, your uniqueness.
How many photographers do we get?
You will get 01 photographer (Anda) for your elopement, intimate wedding, vow renewal, wedding anniversary (fewer than 30 guests), engagement, family and couple sessions.
If your wedding, family event involves more than 30 guests, there will be at least 02 photographers.
What is your approach to engagement or family photoshoot?
My approach is to know you first, then will guide you, help you to feel comfortable in front of the camera so I can capture your beautiful portraits and candid moments on the photo session.
For family photoshoot, I have experience working with kids from age 2 to teenager. I keen on a friendly approach to be a person they can trust, create a safe environment and engage with them by some games, then I will capture their natural, beautiful moments with their parents.

How many photos will we get?
1. My photography approach for weddings is story-telling so I’ll capture everything, everyone that’s involved in your wedding day so I can tell your wedding story via images. Such as you getting ready, detail of beautiful wedding attires, group portrait with your bride-maids, groomsman, ceremony venue decoration, vows exchange, welcoming guests, party … You can imagine that there are a lot of things to tell about your wedding day
There will be no exact number of images that I’ll deliver to you because every photoshoot, every wedding is different. However, I’d always put quality over quantity so your gallery will be well-selected before the delivery.
You can expect an average of: 35-40 edited pictures per hour for wedding, elopement day
2. My photography approach for family and couple session is portrait & candid moments. I want to ensure your family portrait, group shot, and couple portrait will be delivered aside with all natural, candid moments of you enjoying the holiday.
You can expect an average of:
30-35 edited pictures per hour for family photoshoot
25 edited pictures per hour for couple and engagement photoshoot.
3. If you book analog photography as an add-on service, the amount of photo will be added on top of delivered digital photos.
Can we get a personalized elopement package according to our needs?
Of course you can, when you decide to elope, you open a door to all the possibilities you can have for your day. It’s all about your experience and how it will be captured so you can tell your story to your family, your friends, and your children for many years to come. The more hours of photography coverage, the more flexibility you can get.

How do your travel fees work?
I add all of my travel expenses (round-trip flight / ferry / bus, rental vehicle, minimum 1 night of accommodation) into the total cost of packages that is out of my base (Ho Chi Minh city).
Do you accept payment installment?
Yes, I can accommodate smaller installment if you prefer. All additional transfer fees must be paid by you.
Can we print our photos?
Yes, you can. I will grant you a personal printing rights. You will be able to choose your favorite printing lab. It’s more convenient & practical to do it in your home country than having a print from Vietnam and deliver it to your country.
How can we deposit retainer fee when we are far away?
The retainer fee can be transferred via PayPal, Western Union, MoneyGram, SWIFT banking or Cryptocurrency.
I also prepare a few more payment transfer methods which may be available in your country. We can discuss about it in our consultation call. My goal is to provide you a suitable, most economic way.

Can two foreigners legally get married in Vietnam?
Theoretically yes! Two non-Vietnamese individuals can legally get married in Vietnam as long as:
– They are a heterosexual couple
– At least one of them has Residency or Temporary Residency status granted by the Vietnamese government. This means that one person must be living in Vietnam with official permission from the government.
For visitors, it is recommended to legalize marriage in your home country and have symbolic wedding ceremony in Vietnam.
Does Vietnam accept same-sex marriage?
Vietnam’s laws do not recognize same-sex marriages, civil unions, domestic partnerships, unregistered cohabitation, or any other form of recognition for same-sex couples (Read more on Wikipedia)
However, it is recommended to legalize marriage in your home country and then have a symbolic ceremony in Vietnam.
Is it safe for LGBTQ+ couple travel and elope in Vietnam?
Yes it’s safe.
Although the laws of Vietnam do not recognize same-sex marriage, the authority doesn’t do anything to harm your wish of having your elopement here.
Same for wedding venues, wedding vendors, accommodations are very friendly and welcoming.
Do you take LGBTQ+ wedding?
Hell yessssssss!. Celebrating love and diversity is my favorite. It will be my privilege that you let me be a part of your wedding and document it.

Do you also photograph in other area out of your base, countries? Can you travel to my wedding in a different city, country? What would be the cost of your travel expenses?
I’m currently based in Ho Chi Minh city (a 40-minute flight from Phu Quoc Island). I travel to Phu Quoc Island often and anywhere in Vietnam. I’m happy to capture LOVE wherever you desire.
For travel expenses, I don’t charge any additional fees for travel within Vietnam because my travel fees are already included in all Vietnam packages.
For destinations beyond Vietnam, the travel costs are calculated on my basis, including round-trip flights, rental vehicle/taxi and at least two nights of accommodation. Photographing weddings in a foreign country will require me a visa and a work permit. Share with me your plan, I will sort out my permits.
You can also get a discounted package when I’m in a specific area, follow my travel schedule.
