it's your special movie moment...
here's what to expect
Making sure you feel comfortable in front of the camera during these special moments is a main priority for me! I want you to be able to think at the end of an engagement/wedding, "Wow, we actually had time to just take in today and be ourselves and walk away with photos that we love!"
A decent photographer can take photos, a GREAT photographer will go above and beyond to have you feel stress free, comfortable, and for you to enjoy the moment of this day!
1) Tell me about you
Excited by the photos and want to work together? The next step would be to hit that inquire button and fill out the contact form, as this helps me get to know about you and we can see if we'd be the right fit! Tell me all about your favorite things! Are you a food lover? Do you have an adorable pet? What's a hobby you and your significant other love to do?
2) Lock your date in
Once the inquiry form is filled out you can expect to receive an email from me within the next 24 hours. We get to have a zoom chat to get to know each other better and discuss your event, (no worries the call will not take a big portion of time, I pinky promise).
This chat will help us move forward in the booking process and secure your date.
3) Lets start planning
I know the planning process of a wedding and even an engagement session can seem daunting at times. But once you book an engagement session I will be with you every step of planning! And when it comes to the wedding I send out a wedding guide, along with timeline planning, and am readily available to answer all of your questions.
4) Day of Session
Whether it's your engagement day or your wedding day you can expect me to be there ro capture your story and all the people and emotions that make it special!
The only thing to think about that day is to be in the moment. And you can guarantee I will be hyping you both up the whole day!
5) Previews
I know the planning process of a wedding and even an engagement session can seem daunting at times. But once you book an engagement session I will be with you every step of planning! And when it comes to the wedding I send out a wedding guide, along with timeline planning, and am readily available to answer all of your questions.
6) Final Gallery
Ready to see the all of your special photos? Well I am super excited to share them with you!
You will receive an email with a link to view and download your full gallery. From there you can choose to have prints or fine print albums made, along with finally getting to share them with your loved ones!
What's the turnaround time for photos?
I strive to get a wedding gallery back within 2 weeks, but during busy season it can take up to 3-4 weeks, and that is why it is stated that way in the contract. But I love to surprise my couples by getting their gallery to them as soon as possible.
Do you travel for sessions and weddings?
If the session is within 20 miles from me there is no travel fee. But for anywhere outside of that 20 mile radius there is a .625 fee per mile.
For elopements or destination weddings I'd be glad to discuss a quote with you and go over the details!
Do we need a second photographer?
I'd say it depends. Not every wedding may require a second photographer. Things that can help you decide are:
-do you have different locations for getting ready?
-is the ceremony and reception in different locations?
I have done the majority of my weddings myself and am confident I provide the best photos for you if you so choose to go without a second photographer.
However, if you want to add a second photographer on I can do that. Having a second ensures you get more candids and varying angles.
How do we book with you?
You just need to click on that inquire button, we have a zoom call to get to know each other more and see if we're the right fit and then I send over an invoice and contract.
