The FAQ
Do you Travel?
Absolutely. Your wedding package price will include all of my travel fees already within the final quote.
How long have you been doing this?
My first wedding I have shot was in 2018. I have been shooting on average 20+ weddings a year since then!
How many photos do we get?
On any typical shoot I will deliver 50-75+ photos/hour.
How do we get our photos?
All images are delivered through a password protected gallery. You are able to download the photos at high resolution and single photos as well.
Photo galleries are open for 30 days after final delivery for download. There is a reopening fee if you need to access the gallery again. This is to ensure my clients are downloading all their photos
Do you retouch photos?
I will always smooth your skin, take our pimples or blemishes from photos. Also, any unwanted items or distractions from the photos will be removed before final images are released.
I will NOT do any photoshopping, body altering work on my photos.
Whats your turn around time?
Standard 1 hour session is 2-3 weeks.
Weddings 8-10 weeks.
Boudoir 4-6 weeks.
All sessions will get images of a sneak peek within the next 48 hours after the event!
How do we book you?
The booking process is first, inquiring. Let's talk the date to ensure we can work together first. Second, we will discuss payments and package pricing, all packages are available with payment plans. If you want to make a payment every other Tuesday, sure we can set that up.
Then, we can schedule a zoom/meeting to ensure we vibe with one another. I want to ensure my clients and I understand one another and fit well together. Some people aren't meant for everyone and thats okay. I like to have fun, goofy around and just live in the moment. While some people just want a simple smile and be done with it, if thats you...then we aren't going to mesh.
From there after the contract is signed and initial deposit is paid then we are good to start planning and talking about our time together!
Can you help us with planning?
DUH! I like being apart of the planning if possible. I can bring another eye to the day and ideas you might not have thought of.
When it comes to weddings, it is VERY important that you consult your photographer with the timeline. Even if you have a coordinator- please verify with me before the big day. TRUST ME.
How far out do you book?
I am currently booking 4-6 weeks out for 1 hour sessions.
Boudoir sessions 4 weeks out.
Weddings I am booking 6-8 months out.
What should we do for an engagement session?
Absolutely anything that feels like YOU as a couple.
Want to go to your favorite ice cream shop? Want to skateboard downtown? Runaway to desert and be in the wild Wild West? Nothing is off the table when it comes to show-casing who my clients are.
Like I said, we aren't traditional over here.
What should we wear?
I have a style guide that I send to clients to help with ideas!

I always suggest staying neutral colors. Bright colors or loud patterns are very distracting when it comes to photos and you are meant to be the main focus!
