Question 1

Will you edit all our pictures?

Accepted Answer

Definitely. All final images will be edited for color, saturation, exposure, and sharpness to ensure they look beautiful. I also offer retouching services like blemish removal and teeth whitening at no additional charge.

Question 2

What’s your back-up plan if you can’t photograph our wedding as planned?

Accepted Answer

In my 15 years of experience as a wedding photographer, I’ve cancelled 1 booking... Because I was in active labor :) In the extremely rare event that I’m unable to photograph your wedding, I’ll make sure you’re covered by another photographer that we agree on, or refund your entire booking fee including deposit.

Question 3

Do you also offer video services?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 4

How long will it take to see our pictures?

Accepted Answer

My turnaround time varies by season, but max would be 5-6 weeks after you're wedding. Within this time, you can expect to receive a sneak peek as well as a link for your online gallery. The online gallery is where you will download all of your high-resolution image files, that you can share with your loved ones and order prints. If you book the Immersive package, then you will receive priority gallery delivery which is typically 2-3 weeks.

Question 5

How many pictures will we get?

Accepted Answer

You can expect about 50-75 images per hour of photographing. But keep in mind this estimate varies depending on your wedding, number of guests, venue type, and other factors.

Question 6

What packages do you offer?

Accepted Answer

IMMERSIVE — $4,000 Best for weddings that need start-to-finish coverage. Designed for full wedding days with multiple moments or locations. Includes hands-on timeline guidance, priority gallery delivery, and a more involved planning approach. For most U.S. locations, travel is included with Immersive coverage. FOCUSED — $2,250 Best for the majority of weddings. Ideal for ceremony and reception days that don’t require full-day scope. Includes light timeline guidance as needed to support a smooth, un-rushed day. INTIMATE (Micro Wedding) — $1,500 Designed for small, simple celebrations with a defined scope. Offered on select dates.

Question 7

Do you charge travel fees?

Accepted Answer

For most U.S. locations, travel is included with Immersive Package. Travel for Focused and Intimate packages is quoted separately based on location.

Question 8

Do you offer a client/vendor agreement?

Accepted Answer

YES! Wouldn't even consider photographing a wedding without it. This protect you and me, and keeps every thing very transparent.

Question 9

What is required as down-payment to book?

Accepted Answer

I require 50% down to secure the date. The rest of the balance is due 2 weeks before the wedding date.

Question 10

Do you offer any sort of discounts?

Accepted Answer

Yes! I offer 10% off for all active and retired military.
