FAQ

Is Profound Photography a 1 man band or a team?

Profound Photography employs 5 full time professional photographers and videographers including the lead photographer Tonde. Amongst the team is a lady photographer who is also an editor at the studio.

Where are you based?

We are based in the heart of Harare at Sam Levy's Village, Borrowdale. We are available for travel to shoot your wedding anywhere you want us to be.

How far should we book in advance?

I suggest that you book as soon as your wedding venue is confirmed. We are now booking 2023 & 2024 weddings.

What about destination weddings?

We love destination weddings and the opportunity to take photos of our lovely couples in totally new and unique settings! Please send us a message so we can estimate the travel costs for us to get to anywhere you want us to be.

How do I reserve you for my day?

All dates are reserved once we receive your signed contract and the non-refundable booking fee of Usd1000. We work on a first come first serve basis so get in touch as soon as possible.

Tell us about your professionalism

One of the biggest compliments we get after every wedding we capture is how professional our team is, and not only on the wedding day but throughout the wedding planning journey as well. We value each of our clients and are always available to answer any questions they have, the experience you have with us from start to finish is the most important factor to us.

Do you offer videography/cinematography?

Yes, we have cinematography on our product line. It can be booked with wedding photography or as a stand alone line item as well.

Have you shot at our location before

If you are getting married in Harare, chances are that we have shot at your wedding venue before. However, we love shooting at new venues and seeing a location with fresh eyes is very valuable as well! We would also be happy to visit your location prior to the wedding day, or if your wedding is out of town, we will arrive early the day before or day of to scout it to make sure we know where the best spots to shoot are!

How long will it take to see our pictures?

Pre-wedding and family photos will be available approximately 7 to 10 days after the shoot.  Weddings normally take 3-5 weeks depending with the wedding season. For events delivery time is 7 days and real time delivery is available for at extra cost.

Can I see a full event from start to finish?

Of course you may! We pride ourselves on the consistency of our work. We understand all photographers post their best shots from each wedding on their websites so it’s hard to determine how well he or she will perform on the wedding day. That is why we encourage all of our potential clients to view full events from all photographers they meet with to see how well the photographer performs throughout the day.

Do you deliver every image you take?

No, we do not. We eliminate duplicate images, test shots, missed focused shots, shots with bad expressions and other images that may dilute the overall product delivery. For example, because we shoot with low apertures, sometimes we take a few extra shots to make sure we have the perfect focus. In another example, candid laughs and emotional tears are some of the best images from the day. Unfortunately, they can also yield some unflattering facial expressions. We might snap a few extras of any of these moments to make sure we have a great shot with the ideal expression for the moment.

How many Images do you deliver from a wedding?

Depending on the collection you choose, we deliver between 600 and 1000 fully edited pictures. You will receive them within 2 to 5 weeks from the wedding depending with the wedding season: as soon as the pictures are ready, we will upload them on your password protected online gallery, and will send you the link and password.
