Frequently Asked Questions

01. the basics

What is it like to work with you?

Working with a team of wedding professionals shouldn’t be hard, and that is doubly true for a wedding photographer.  This person is responsible for capturing the memories of one of the biggest days of your lives.  It’s so important to me that we become friends; this is not just a business transaction.  I want you + your family + loved ones to feel as comfortable around me as possible.

What can we expect?

Laughter. Silliness.  Fun.  Movement.  Jokes.  Inappropriate words.  Raw emotion.  Real moments.

I really don’t want to be a director; I just want to photograph your love as it happens.  I’ll give you guidance and direction, but this is about you, not me.

What wedding services do you offer?

01. An engagement session.  It’s so important that we get to know one another before the wedding, even if this session takes place the day before the wedding.  This way, I’ll know what you’re comfortable with, and you’ll know what to expect on the wedding day.  No surprises.  Just fun, kick ass photos.

02.  All day wedding coverage.  Like Steven Tyler, I don’t wanna miss a thing.

03.  High resolution images.  With a print release.  Get those images on your walls, babes!

04.  An heirloom photo album.  Because sharing these images with future generations is so important.

02.  the details

How many weddings do you book a year?

Between 25 and 30 is my comfort zone.  I book out up to a year and a half in advance, but also love those sweet little last minute weddings.

Do you travel for weddings or other shoots?

Uh, HECK YES I DO.  My bags are packed.  My passport is up to date.  Let’s do this thing.

What is required to book my date?

First things first, click that contact button at the top of the page.  Then, we’ll see if we are a match made in heaven.  After that, I require a contract and retainer to hold your date.  And a high five.

03. helpful hints

Do I need a second photographer?

That depends.  If you have a super tight schedule – usually the case when you opt not to do a first look – a second photographer can be super helpful.  This person can help me wrangle family for family photos, get alternate views during the ceremony and reception, and help me set up killer detail shots.  That said…it’s not 100% necessary.  Let’s talk about your wedding day vision and schedule before making the leap!

Should I consider a first look?

Yes.  100 times YES.  Ok, hear me out.  Wedding day jitters can be a real thing.  The stress of wanting everything to be perfect, your mom driving you crazy, your minor hangover from enjoying the rehearsal dinner a liiiitle too much…I get it.  And who better to calm your nerves and relieve that stress than your fiancé?  Having a while before the ceremony and craziness of the wedding day to just BE and RELAX with your boo is just what the doctor ordered.  Plus, you’re going to look super hot and you’re going to want that first kiss to be as steamy as possible – preferably not in front of grandma and 150 guests.

Do you have any recommendations on other wedding vendors?

You bet your ass I do!  If you aren’t already working with a planner, I would be THRILLED to point you in the right direction.
