FAQ

I get this all the time. 99% of the people I photograph are not used to having their photos taken, I completely understand that. most of the people I photograph are not sure what to do in front of the camera. the people you see smiling, laughing, and even working the camera, in our photos most likely told me they were camera shy. it's my job to get you comfortable and to get you moving and grooving. as long as you embrace the experience, trust me to do my job.

I always encourage embracing whatever the weather ends up being like. I can play and shoot in any type of light and are comfortable doing so. if the weather throws us a curveball, it's all part of the experience! of course if the weather is a chance of meatballs and can potentially damage the gear we can absolutely reschedule or postpone.

no.
I never give those out. editing your photos is half the magic and process. without it the work would be half done. I lovingly go through each file and make sure they look good.

in the words of Kendrick Lamar I am "so sick and tired of the photoshop." I am not a photoshopper, I am a photographer. I believe in making you feel good and comfortable in front of our cameras, just as you are. if you have a blemish or if there's something in the background that's distracting then yes I will, otherwise I like you just the way you are.

the different pricings start with a base amount of hours, after that you can customize the package to what fits best for your day. you have the option to add hours now up to the day of — things may have run late day of so couples ask us to stay a little longer and or they just want more photos. I always work with you on the schedule to make sure I can stay within the hours you choose but know that it's super easy to add additional hours if need be.

right after our first meeting (zoom or f2f), I will proceed to soft-book your session(s) for two weeks. to confirm, we require a 50% nonrefundable deposit with your signed contract to hold the date. the remaining balance is due maximum 2 weeks after your wedding day.
