So How Does This All Work?
Initial Inquiry. Send me a message using my contact form. I’ll get back to you reeeaaaal fast.
We Can Meet. If you would like to set up a coffee date, video chat, or phone call - lets do it! I’m also not above chatting over a drink if that is more your style. ;)
Book It. If you’ve decided that I’m the right photographer for you, you sign the contract, and pay the deposit. Easy peasy!
Lets Get Planning. Once your date is booked, I wont just disappear until the big day. I’m here to help you though the planning process. Got a question? Just ask! I got you. :)
Your Engagement Session. We can schedule this whenever you like! Need some location suggestions? I have tons for you!
The Big Day. I’ll arrive, say hi, tell you how excited I am, and get started. It will all go smoothly, be ridiculously fun, and everything that you hoped it would be! At the end of the night, before I head out, I’ll check in and make sure there weren’t any last photos that you want.
Photo Delivery. I like to post a sneak peek for all my couples within a week of their wedding. The full gallery will be sent within 8 weeks.
You’ve got questions, and I’ve got answers.
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN PHOTOGRAPHING WEDDINGS?
I have been photographing weddings since 2010. It brings me so much joy! Honestly, I couldn’t see myself doing anything else. I love it!
WILL YOU TRAVEL WITH US?
Heck yes! I LOVE shooting in new places. I’ll even check out the location the day before your wedding to find some great photo spots for us.
HOW DO YOU DELIVER PHOTOS?
Images are delivered via online gallery. If you really want a USB of your wedding photos, I can make that happen. ;)
CAN WE HAVE ALL THE PHOTOS, EVEN THE UNEDITED ONES?
Nope, sorry! But trust me, I’ll send you every great image I’ve got. I won’t keep anything from you, promise!
DO YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE WORKING WITH LGBTQ+ COUPLES?
Tons! As a fellow member of the LGBTQ+ community, I believe that all love is equal. I want you to feel valued, respected, and appreciated for who you are. Want to talk to one of my past couples? I’m sure they’d be willing to chat with you!
HOW MUCH IS THE RETAINER?
Retainers are $1000. This secures your date! The remaining balance is due 30 days before your wedding/elopement. If you’d like to make payments along the way, you’re welcome to.
HOW MANY HOURS DO I NEED?
This really depends on your schedule, but most couples can get all the elopement coverage they need within 4-5 hours. I recommend that you book the shortest day you that you think will work for you. I don’t allow packages to be downgraded, but you can always add extra time (to a maximum of 8 hours) at a later date.
SHOULD WE USE THE ENGAGEMENT SESSION THAT COMES WITH OUR PACKAGE?
100% Yes. Having the opportunity to work together before your big day is awesome. We get to hang out, learn about each other, and you can get used to being in front of the camera.
WILL YOU HELP US POSE? WE’RE AWKWARD IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA.
Guess what? EVERYONE tells me that they are awkward in front of the camera. Seriously - everyone. I know how to work with couples and help them feel comfortable. Getting your photos taken is an unusual experience, but that doesn’t mean that it can’t be fun!
WHAT IS YOUR APPROACH TO SHOOTING ELOPEMENTS & WEDDINGS?
I’m here to help. I’m here to give you location ideas. I will help you stay on schedule. I will help you wrangle your family. I want to have fun celebrating with you. I live for capturing real moments with the people you love. I want to be a part of your day, but I don’t want to control it.
