Frequently asked questions.
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN DOING WEDDINGS ? I have been capturing weddings for about 16 years. I love meeting everyone and their families, and of course being a part of all the love! I love creating artistic and romantic images of your day.
DO YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE WORKING WITH LGBTQ+ COUPLES ? I do! love is love - I don't judge!
HOW MUCH COVERAGE SHOULD I GET ? That depends on your needs, most couples get all the coverage needed within 6-8 hours, sometimes 4-5 hours! I recommend starting with booking the shortest day you see as feasible for your needs, because you can always add extra coverage hours to your package later.
HOW DO I GET THE IMAGES/VIDEOS ? Images and video are provided on a storage flash-drive and mailed to you (except the engagement session booked by itself-which is a temporary online downloadable gallery provided)
CAN WE HAVE ALL THE RAW PHOTOS/UNEDITED ONES ? No - but no worries, after I go through all the images/footage and remove the duplicates, I’ll send you every great image.
DO YOU HAVE FULL GALLERIES AVAILABLE TO VIEW ? Yes - please send me and email if you’d like to see them!
WILL YOU TRAVEL ? YES, I LOVE ADVENTURES.
DO YOU HAVE A TRAVEL FEE ? Yes for some locations I have a mileage/airfare and lodging fee. It’s important to me to feel safe during my time away from home, and that I can get home safely after a LONG day(or multiple days) on my feet lugging around heavy gear.
DOES IT TAKE A LONG TIME TO GET THE IMAGES/VIDEO BACK ? Please keep in mind, each photographer/videographer is different on turnaround time to deliver after wedding. I am always very excited to show you what I capture and like to get them to you as soon as possible. However I also need to allow time to rest in between. Because life happens, I work on editing weddings intermittently, first in-first out. I give myself 120 days as a cushion.
OKAY SO WHAT ARE THE STEPS TO BOOKING?
• Inquiry • Send me a message via my contact form - you'll receive a response within 24-48 hours.
• Meeting up to chat • Let's set up a coffee meeting, video or phone call! We should make sure we are the right fit for each other.
• Final booking • If you’ve decided that you'd love for me to capture your day, you then sign the contract, I sign, you pay the booking retainer to secure the date - Done! - Keep in mind, I take bookings first come first serve and on a personal decision basis. I can't hold the date without a booking retainer.
• Once your wedding date is booked • I won't bother you unless I have a question about your day or maybe to show you some fun shoot ideas I have, and if you have a question or want to chat - feel free to reach out!
• Engagement • Let me know when you'd like to schedule this session, the sooner the better!
• FINALLY on the day you've been preparing & anxiously waiting for! • I’ll be there early, scope out the venue if needed, and then become a ninja, pet your cat, and then I'll take lots of photos(or videos) of you and the amazing day, and everything special that happens in between, and before I leave for the night I’ll check in with you to make sure you don't have any final photo or videos you want!
• Final Delivery • I can email you a sneak peek within a week the wedding (photo only) - full gallery and/or recap will be delivered within 120 days from the wedding.
