How far in advance should we book a Richmond wedding photographer?

Most couples book their Richmond wedding photographer anywhere from 9 to 15 months in advance, especially for spring and fall dates. That said, availability can vary, so I always recommend reaching out as soon as you have your date and venue secured. If your wedding is coming up sooner, it never hurts to ask — I’m always happy to check.

How many hours of wedding photography do we need?

The amount of coverage you need really depends on your day — things like how many locations you have, whether you’re doing a first look, and how much you want documented. Most Richmond weddings benefit from 8 to 10 hours of coverage, but I’m always happy to help you decide what makes the most sense for your plans.

Q: Do you help with the wedding day timeline?

Yes, absolutely. I work closely with my couples to help build a photography-friendly timeline that still feels relaxed and realistic. From planning portraits around the best light to making sure there’s enough time for family photos and quiet moments together, my goal is to help the day flow smoothly and without stress.

Behind the Lens

Munhoz Photography is a Richmond wedding photographer with a timeless, classic approach to weddings and portraits. The kind of people we work with? They value time with family and friends, believe in belly laughs, crying during speeches, and letting their hair down on the dance floor. They trust us to capture the honest, the sweet, and the beautifully chaotic (yes, even the flower girl meltdown). When we're not photographing beautiful weddings and families across Virginia, you’ll likely find us trying new coffee shops in RVA or curled up with a good book — fiction and non-fiction alike.

RICHMOND WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY STYLE

Richmond has such a unique mix of venues, light, and seasons, and that plays a big role in how I photograph weddings here. From planning portraits around the best light to adjusting timelines when weather changes, I guide my couples through the day in a way that feels calm, intentional, and unrushed.

I’m familiar with the flow of Richmond venues, indoor and outdoor ceremony setups, and the little details that make a timeline work smoothly, like when to tell the bridesmaids to be ready, for example. My goal is always to help you enjoy your day fully while I document it honestly and beautifully.

Because what matters to you, matters deeply to us...

We care about creating space for real moments. We care that your veil is fluffed and that you’re drinking water on your wedding day (because girl, it’s a marathon). We care that your mom gets in the frame, and that your grandparents are captured exactly as they are. We care about honoring the season you’re in... whether that’s planning a wedding, welcoming your first baby, or wrangling three kids under five for a sunset session at Maymont Park. And we care about doing it all with heart, prayer, kindness, and attention to the little things.
