Destination Photography
Destination Wedding Photography & Videography from Modern Era Weddings. Florida, Pittsburgh, and destination wedding coverage. Producing weddings since 2009. Best of Weddings recognition includes 16-time Pittsburgh and 4-time South Florida profiles. The Knot Hall of Fame badge appears on both Knot profiles.
The reason we offer photography alongside entertainment is timing. A first dance that starts before the photographer is in position gets shot from the back of the room, a sparkler exit called two minutes early gets half a frame, and a cake cutting announced while the photographer is changing a lens simply does not exist afterwards.
When the people running the room and the people shooting it are working from the same timeline and can talk to each other during the night, those misses stop happening. That is most of the value, and it is invisible in a portfolio.
The other half is destination logistics, which means knowing what gets shipped, what gets carried on, what the light does at that latitude at that time of year, and how long a sunset actually lasts somewhere you have never stood before.

Destination Wedding Photography & Videography frequently asked questions
- Is the photography team in-house or subcontracted?
- Our photography team operates under the Modern Era Weddings umbrella as part of one creative team alongside the DJ, lighting, and video divisions. This means the photographer and DJ or emcee coordinate throughout the event. The photographer always knows what is coming next on the timeline.
- How many photos do we receive and when?
- Coverage size depends on the photography package you choose, but because we shoot multi-day weekends couples typically receive 1,000-2,500+ professionally edited high-resolution photos delivered via private online gallery within 4-6 weeks of the event.
- How does multi-day destination photography coverage work?
- Our destination packages provide full-weekend coverage from arrival to farewell. Coverage includes welcome events, getting-ready, the ceremony, reception, after-party, and Sunday brunch. Every package includes a lead photographer plus assistant traveling together so no event in the weekend goes uncovered.
- Do we get a lead photographer plus an assistant?
- Yes. Every destination photography package includes a professional lead photographer and a second-shooter / assistant to capture parallel moments, alternate angles, and any cocktail-hour or after-party rooms running simultaneously.
- Can drone or video coverage be added?
- Yes. Drone aerials and full videography are optional add-ons priced into the destination package. Drone footage is supplied by video artists who hold their own FAA Part 107 certificate.
