The budget purely depends on customized needs of clients and resources to be invested from our side. Every wedding differs from the other one. Number of ceremonies, guests, location and areas to be covered, number of photobooks and types of services required are key attributes, which decide the end-user cost for that specific day or occasion.
Normally average pricing starts from INR 40,000 onwards per day for wedding photography & videography with latest approach of cinematography.

Yes, we do offer the same provided the outstanding payment of shooting is paid immediately. This mainly happens in case of out state and NRI clients when client opts for soft copy of images only and no other service, which may require production process to be carried out at our office.
Would like to add one thing here, though shooting could be a true quality work, editing may add noticeable improvement & enhancement in the photos. Therefore you should opt for edited photos.
We use best available gears in the industry that are well accredited & majorly accepted as Industry Standard photographic gears and accessories. We give due importance to perpetual advancement and up gradation of gears. Yet, we would like to mention here that skill and commitment of team also matter a lot. So it is a 50:50 rule.
Your data is absolutely secure with Blue Hour Studios. From Shooting to Post Production, we have installed latest technology to secure the data in multiple mirror drivers in order to avoid possible losses occurred in emergency. It is very rare that your data may be lost or unrecoverable. Yet, in certain situations, which are beyond our control and access, we do not take any guarantee of your data with us. At the same time, in the incident of loss of data, we do not take any responsibility or liability to compensate in any financial or non financial manner.
Normally, we take 7-10 days to deliver the photos ready to select in a DVD / Pen Drives / Web Transfer. Once you select photos for the photo books (if opted for) we take almost 2 weeks to design it and deliver within a month. Hence our attempt is to deliver everything within 30-45 days positively.
Yes of course, in case there is any deviation/amendment in the schedule, number of services, number of deliverables, hours of coverage or so it will increase of decrease the amount of final invoice accordingly. Therefore, amendments or updates in the schedule or requirements have to informed to us as soon as possible and clarification from our side should be asked for.

We offer full HD in most of the cases as a resolution of Video content. In many cases we offer 4K / Cinema 4K also and that has to be opted separately by paying additional cost.
4K/UHD resolution (3840 X 2160) is 4 times bigger resolution than Full HD (1920 X 1080) resolution. Cinema 4K is 4096 X 2160 resolution. We generally give 6k - 8k resolution of photos and that occupies a disk space of almost 12-15 MB per photo.
Yes, we give but that requires you to be holding copyright of those specific songs or music. Else the youtube/facebook will not let you upload the video that violates copyright act.
That seldome happens. We use best in the industry memory sticks, back up devies and memory cards. Most of the professional media cards come with a data recovery app/software, hence the data is not lost in most of teh cases.
But in an extreme situation, if the data is not exported, missed or not captured due to technical error, human error, virus activity or theft, we do not take liability of that. Yes, wherever possible, we shall offer a reshoot. But we do not stand liable to compensate in any financial or other manner for the loss of data.
This is in fact a very good query raised. People believe that their data is SAFE in an editable media like Hard Disks whether internal or external, Pen Drives etc. But this is a great myth. Pen Drives & Hard Drives are easily accessible edited media and not read only media. So as the name states, you can delete or format the editable media as it is not a read only media. It may also happen that someone may by mistake delete the data from editable drive or some virus activity, bad sectors or drive errors may also cause your data to be compromised and lost.
If you do not have any other option and you are forced to use editable media only, then you should go for multiple copies of the data back up, at least three copies on different drives.
Else, the best and the most cost effective option is to write the data on Blu Ray or DVD Disks. With normal effort one cannot edit or delete the data from Read Only Media. Unless the disks are stolen, scratched or tampered to an extent or broken, the data is not lost. Based on our experience, taking data back up in 2 same set of disks is the most reliable way to secure your precious data.
Yes, we do aerial photography and videography in 4K resolution. We have a trained licene holder Drone Pilot and a Directorate General of Civil Aviation certified UIN number holder Drone, but drone photography is a subject to permission to be taken from DGCA or Defense Ministry. Drone can be used for commecial purpose only in the green zone upto 120 mtrs of height. In the city areas where yellow and red zone are identified by the Civial Aviation Ministry, there is a steep restriction applicable. We give all documentation support for the same but permission has to be achieved and that is not certain that permission will be given and the time may be required for weeks. .
