I’m here to walk through this process with you.

No one knows this industry quite like a wedding vendor which is why I’m on your side and here to help you have the best experience possible, not only on your big day, but in the time leading up to it.

I approach wedding days with a mixture of documentary & editorial style of photographing.

My goal is to look for all those candid, beautiful moments & provide direction when necessary.

 

Wedding packages begin at $4,000

please inquire for pricing

 
 
 
 

DO YOU WORK WITH A SECOND PHOTOGRAPHER?

I include a second shooter in almost every wedding photography package for the benefit of both my clients and myself. Having a second photographer there means more moments captured, makes timeline planning easier, and allows a backup photographer to already be on location in case of an emergency.

DO YOU OFFER VIDEO SERVICES?

No, I prefer focusing on photography only, so you can get the best wedding pictures possible.

HOW MANY PICTURES WILL WE GET/ HOW DO YOU DELIVER THE IMAGES?

You can expect about 80 to 100 images per hour of photographing. But keep in mind this estimate varies depending on your wedding package, number of guests, venue type, and other factors. All of your images will be delivered in a digital personalized gallery format. This gallery will come straight to your inbox and will include both web-sized and high-resolution .jpeg images.

WHAT IS THE TURN AROUND TIME?

My turnaround time varies by season. Typically, you’ll be able to view your photos online about 4-6 weeks after your wedding.

SHOULD WE BOOK AN ENGAGEMENT SESSION?

Definitely. I love engagement sessions because they allow us to get to know each other more and allow you to become more comfortable being photographed.

HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD WE BOOK YOU FOR OUR WEDDING?

Typically, couples book me anywhere from 4-12 months before their wedding date. I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible about my availability, even if you’re planning on a shorter time frame!
