Film photographer shooting expired stocks and Super 8, with a Kittle House wedding shown and no base town or prices published.
The house look here is deliberate and it is not for everyone. Expired film stocks, heavy grain and black and white are the point rather than an accident. Super 8 motion coverage is offered as an add on. The Westchester evidence is a full wedding at Crabtree’s Kittle House in Chappaqua, which tells you the county is real work rather than a keyword. Everything else is thin. The Kittle House gallery, read on 11 September 2026, gave no prices, no package list and no delivery timeline. There is no base town anywhere on the site. The service area given is Boston, Providence and Westchester, three places that do not sit close together.
Nothing is priced in public, and film work carries costs that digital does not. Processing and scanning are the two that never appear in a catalogue. Ask for a written package giving the hours of coverage and the number of rolls shot. It should also say whether digital backup coverage is included, and when both the stills and the Super 8 arrive. Get the travel charge to Westchester in writing, along with any accommodation billing. Confirm what happens if film is lost or damaged in processing.
The Crabtree’s Kittle House wedding gallery at yaritzacolon.com, read on 11 September 2026. Checked September 2026. First party means the business’s own site or rate card. Marketplace means The Knot, WeddingWire, Zola, Wedding Spot or similar. Nothing here is averaged or estimated.
Boston and Providence sit on the coverage list beside Westchester and no base town is given anywhere, so establish who would actually drive to a county date.
Digital lets a photographer fix exposure later. Expired film stock does not, and grain and color shift are baked into the frame.
Look at a full gallery rather than a highlight reel, then decide whether you want your whole day to look like that. Ask whether any digital coverage is included as a safety net, and what the remedy is if a roll is damaged in processing.
Boston, Providence and Westchester is a wide spread for one photographer. The site gives no home base to anchor it.
Establish where she actually travels from for a Westchester date, and what the travel charge is in dollars. Accommodation may be billed on top of that. Settle who shoots if the calendar collides with a New England wedding.
Whether she works with a second shooter on a Westchester date or arrives alone is a separate question, and so is what that costs.
Motion film has to be processed and scanned, which takes longer than a photo gallery and costs more to correct if something goes wrong.
Ask what the Super 8 add on costs and how many minutes of film you receive. Whether sound is captured is a separate question, as is when the scanned film arrives. Get both delivery dates written into the contract.
Rolls, processing and scanning are real costs per frame. That is why film photographers usually cap the number of rolls rather than shooting freely all day, and the cap is a number you should see before you book.
Work out how many rolls are included and what an extra roll costs. The lab that handles processing and scanning matters too, along with how long it is currently running. Delivery on film work depends on a third party you will never meet.
Some film photographers carry a digital body for the reception and for low light. Check whether this one does, because it is worth knowing before the evening starts.
