HOW DO WE RESERVE OUR BIG DAY?
It's actually really simple. All that's required is a 40% retainer and contract signature. After that, you can get to the fun stuff!
HOW MANY WEDDINGS DO YOU TAKE PER YEAR?
In order to have time to provide a high-quality experience for each couple, 15-20 weddings per year is my max.
DO YOU TAKE TRADITIONAL "SMILE-AT-THE-CAMERA" PHOTOS?
Absolutely! Those images are always important. They are just not the most compelling portfolio images, so they are usually left off the website or social media.
HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE?
Your images will be "clean" and "classic." You'll see real moments and emotion, but always presented in a beautiful, artistic way. To round things out, there will be timeless fashion-inspired portraiture that shows off your style.
HOW ARE PHOTOS DELIVERED?
Photos are delivered through an online gallery and customizable physical delivery. Each is hand-edited and in full resolution. Heirloom quality albums are also offered and present your story more beautifully than a screen ever could.
DO YOU NEED A SHOT LIST?
Family formal combination lists are very helpful. Otherwise, capturing your story as it happens is top priority.Shot lists can take away from the authenticity of your photos. However, if you have ideas for something that is important to you, let me know. Collaboration is always welcome!
DO YOU TRAVEL FOR WEDDINGS?
It's the best! I love exploring together. There is nothing better than when we share the excitement of finding new places and backdrops for your images.
WHAT IS THE TYPICAL SIZE OF YOUR WEDDINGS?
I've photographed weddings of 2 - 1000 people. I truly enjoy the intimacy of smaller weddings and the buzz of big ones. Either way, your story and vision are always the primary focus!
DO YOU PHOTOGRAPH DETAILS?
Of course! What is important to you, is important to me. I do my best to highlight everything that has meaning and is part of your wedding day vision!
HOW MANY IMAGES ARE DELIVERED?
Each wedding is unique, but in general, engagement sessions are 75-150 images and weddings are 500-850. Quality over quantity, and telling your story in a way that lets your personality shine through, is always the goal.
WHAT KIND OF EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE?
Currently, Canon 5D Mark 4 cameras with Canon 50, 24-70, 85, and 135 L-series lenses are the primary tools used. A combination of medium format and 35mm film cameras are also available for the right situation. Of course there is a wide variety of other technical stuff to make you look fabulous.
CAN I PRINT MY OWN PHOTOS?
Of course! Full printing rights are transferred to you at the time of delivery. That way you are always able to print your photos as you see fit. While it's important for you to have that ability, if you really want to take full advantage of your photos, it's highly encouraged that your albums and prints come from us. Consumer printing can't match the color and quality of a professional printing lab!
