How would you describe your style?

Vibrant, happy, and fun. I love to laugh and have fun during sessions and enjoy couples who don’t take themselves too seriously. While I don’t like static posing, I do understand that most of my clients aren’t professional models and are likely a little awkward in front of the camera so I have a couple tried and true positions I can plop you into before giving you simple prompts to ensure that you always look natural.

We’re super awkward, can you help?

If you’re a grown up who hates being in photos, join the club. I hate having my photo taken as well. Because I totally get it, I prefer giving prompts over static posing to ensure that everything you do is natural to who you are as a couple. I shoot quickly and do it while we’re chatting so that you don’t have time to tense up or wonder if you’re “doing it right”. I often hear from my clients immediately following their sessions that they are surprised at how easy and relaxed they felt at their shoot, many even telling me they had fun, but there’s no way we got anything good because they didn’t feel like we were doing anything different than how they normally act. However, I always hear a different tune after they see the final images. “I can’t believe how great we looked! You actually caught him smiling!” This is why engagement sessions are a great way to practice being photographed and ensures your wedding photos are much more natural, easy, and fun!

Will you capture the day in a candid, unfiltered way — even if it means ditching the polished poses?

Absolutely! As far as I’m concerned, this is the only way to honestly and accurately capture the day. While I understand that you do need some “standard, looking-at-the-camera” photos, most of my photography is built on prompts, not poses. I work with you and your timeline to ensure that we have enough time to allow moments to happen, rather than

Do you travel?

Yes, yes, a thousand times yes! I love traveling for weddings and always have my passport ready. I’ve photographed weddings and engagements throughout the US, the UK, as well as Africa, Mexico and Jamaica. I love to travel to locations I’ve never been so ask if your location is on my Must See list and you might just get a discount!

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes! My standard payment plan is 1/3 of the total balance at the time of booking, 1/3 three months before the wedding date, and the final payment is due one month before the wedding. If you need to alter those terms, we can definitely chat!

What’s your experience with non traditional venues, elopements, thrifted attire, or non standard traditions?

I LOVE a non-traditional wedding and I thrift about 80% of my own wardrobe. From medieval feast with a magic show and no forks to new traditions of unearthing whisky with a shovel during your ceremony, I honestly believe that the more nontraditional the wedding, the more unique and special it is to you and your families, chosen or otherwise. Please make it your own!

Can we do an unplugged ceremony—or at least control when photos are shared?

Yes! I love an unplugged ceremony and have a few ideas to help you make the most of it and help your guests comply. 😊 I typically share an image of the couple on insta the day after the wedding, but if you’d prefer to wait, I can always share a pic of your favors, or pup, or ceremony set up instead. Just ask!

How many photos will we receive after the wedding?

While the number of photos will vary based on the events you have planned and the size of your wedding, typically you’ll receive roughly 50-75 photos per hour of photography coverage.

How long until we get our photo gallery?

Standard turnaround time for engagement photos is 2 weeks. The turnaround time for weddings is 4 weeks.

Do you offer engagement sessions?

Yes! Engagement photos are the best way to get all the awkwardness out of the way before the wedding day. The engagement session is where I’ll give you all the little tips and tricks for how to look your best in your wedding photos. Once you get your engagement gallery back, you’ll also get a chance to see how you look in photos and if there’s anything you or I need to tweak before the big day. Perhaps I need to give you different posing suggestions, maybe you think you need more mascara or you didn’t realize that you don’t like how you scrunch your nose every time you laugh – all good info to know before the main event.

Do you have backup gear, redundancy plans, and a contingency photographer if something goes wrong?

Absolutely. Redundancy is everything! I always have two cameras with me on wedding day, as well as a back up, just in case. Each camera shoots on simultaneously on two separate memory cards so there are always two copies of every image, in case one card fails. Once you wedding is uploaded and then backed up to my computer, one of each memory card is set aside untouched until your wedding gallery has been delivered to you.

If for any reason I am unable to photograph your wedding day (which knocks on wood has not yet happened) I have a large community of fantastic photographers who will be able to step in. Rest assured, if this happens, you and I will work together to ensure they are a good fit for you. I will then edit your images, so you will always get the style you hired me for.

Do you offer retouching and editing for all photos?

I do basic editing (color correction, exposure, cropping) on all images you receive. Extended editing (stray hairs, acne, wrinkles, hair-tie, or brother’s ex-girlfriend removal, etc) is also available at an additional cost per image.

Can we request specific photos or provide a list of requests?

Absolutely! A couple of weeks prior to the big day, I’ll email you a sample photo list for you to fill out with your own family and wedding party group shots. This enables you to get that sorted beforehand so it’s one less thing to think about on wedding day. If you have ideas from TikTok or Pinterest, feel free to send them over at any time- it helps to get the vibe you’re going for and I love that!

Do you provide RAW files?

Typically, no. RAW files are unedited, unprocessed, and require special software to open. They don’t reflect the photography style, skill, or vision I was hired for, and selling them is the equivalent of giving away a half-written book and asking the reader to finish it. Because RAW files are essentially the digital negatives, selling them means giving up all artistic control over how the image is edited or presented, RAW files are sold at $250 per image.

What if we don’t want our identities shared on social media?

I totally understand that not everyone if comfortable sharing on social media. I have several different options available for this, from simply not tagging your accounts on socials, all the way up to complete a buyout of all posting rights for any reason, including my own marketing. Feel free to ask about these options and any additional costs that may go along with them.

What are the next steps if we'd like to book?

1. Let's chat! Getting the right fit in your photographer is incredibly important. You need to vibe. You need to "get each other". You and your photographer both need to have a good time at your wedding to ensure you get the best photos possible. Click the button below to reach out and we'll set up a video chat to be sure we vibe.

2. If we have a great chat and we both decide it's a good fit, I'll send over your paperwork including your invoice and contract. This will be something we both sign and that you'll have available to you if at anytime you need to refer back to it.

3. You'll select the wedding photography package on that paperwork that best fits your needs, accept that quote, sign the contract, and submit that back to me.

4. I sign the contract and you pay the first of three invoices, the retainer, which is 1/3 of the total amount due. Your second 1/3 payment is due 3 months prior to the wedding date, and the final 1/3 payment is due one month before the wedding date.
