FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE?

I take a lifestyle, photojournalistic approach to photography, with a fresh creative twist. My goal is to capture real moments of authentic emotion in a way that truly captures your individuality. I love getting funky, creative, and quirky with my couples to create images that are unique to you and your wedding day. Picture if Wes Anderson were to remake Pride and Prejudice. Lotsa feel-good moments, a love for pretty light, and some weird, eye-catching compositions and colors. I want to create art with you that you want to put on your walls not just because you're in it, but because it looks freakin' awesome.

HOW DO I BOOK YOU?

To reserve your date, I require a signed contract and 50% of your package price. Payment plans are available if needed. The remaining 50% is due two weeks before your wedding date. For portrait sessions, I also have a contract I'll have you sign, and the full session amount is due by the time of the session.

WHAT KIND OF EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE, AND DO YOU HAVE BACKUP EQUIPMENT?

I have a variety of professional-grade camera bodies and lenses. If you want to know specifics, feel free to ask! I always bring my extra camera body, lenses, and memory cards to every wedding for backup. I've also got a sweet holster that lets me carry two cameras at once and makes me feel like a total badass. 

WHAT KIND OF EDITING DO YOU PROVIDE?

I individually edit every single photo that you receive. I edit for color, contrast, and mood to make the beauty of your day truly come to life. I do not do extensive body/skin retouching/photoshopping. You're beautiful! Let's enhance you, not try to change you :)

CAN YOU GIVE ADVICE ON WHAT PACKAGE FITS OUR NEEDS BEST?

Absolutely! I love to talk through the timeline of the day with you to make sure you’re getting all the photography coverage you desire. During your planning process, I’m available to give timeline input and help you plan the timeline of your day.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN A PHOTOGRAPHER?

I first fell in love with photography in 2010, and first started shooting weddings in 2013. But if you count all the sunset photos I took with my little point-and-shoot film camera as a kid, I've been into it my whole life. 

CAN YOU SUGGEST OTHER VENDORS? FLORISTS, DJs, VIDEOGRAPHERS, VENUES, ETC. 

Absolutely! I have a vendor referral list that I would gladly send your way.
