Wedding Frequently Asked Questions
-
My photography style blends natural, candid moments with beautifully composed portraits. I capture genuine emotions and unique details to create timeless images that tell your love story. My relaxed and unobtrusive approach lets you enjoy every moment while I document it authentically.
I believe the best photos reflect the true essence of a moment—joyful laughter, tender glances, and unique details. With a storytelling eye, I preserve these fleeting moments artistically and meaningfully.
On your special day, I blend into the background, capturing spontaneous interactions and genuine expressions without interference. This creates a rich tapestry of beautiful, meaningful images that transport you back to cherished moments.
I also create stunning portraits that highlight your personalities and bond, whether in a romantic sunset shoot or a fun group portrait. Each image is thoughtfully composed and beautifully lit.
My goal is to provide a gallery of images you will treasure for a lifetime, filled with memories to revisit. I aim to make your photography experience enjoyable and stress-free, so you can focus on celebrating your love while I capture it all.

I'll schedule a consultation to discuss your vision and wedding details, ensuring I understand how to best capture your special moments. Once you're ready to proceed, we'll finalize the booking with a signed contract and a retainer fee to secure your date. We'll then work together on a photography timeline and other details to ensure everything goes smoothly on your big day. Feel free to reach out with any questions or for more information!

Photographers can only shoot one wedding at a time. If you think we'd be a great fit, I recommend that you get in touch as soon as possible to secure your date. I limit the number of weddings I take on for a given year.

The number you receive varies and depends on how many hours you have me around for. I personally edit each and every one of your photos - there’s no limit on the amount of photos you’ll be getting as long as they adequately tell the story of your day.

I strive to get my couples their wedding galleries within 6-10 weeks, but if you need anything back before then, just reach out and let me know.
-
Yes please! If your guests are eating during your reception, I prefer to eat at the same time that you are. I love being able to sit with your guests so that I can shoot and be right where the action is (as opposed to eating in the next room).
-
Absolutely! I'm happy to create a package that perfectly suits your day. If you don't see what you're looking for in the listed wedding packages just send me a message and we can iron out the details.
-
Yes, I offer engagement sessions! Engagement sessions are included in all wedding packages that are 6 hours and over. This is a fantastic opportunity for us to get to know each other better before your big day and for you to become more comfortable in front of the camera. You can find more details about my engagement sessions here.
In addition, engagement sessions are a great way to capture this special time in your life and create beautiful images that you can use for save-the-dates, wedding websites, or simply to cherish forever. The session typically lasts about 1-2 hours and can be held at a location of your choice, whether it's a favorite park, your home, or a spot that holds sentimental value to you both.
If you're interested in adding an engagement session to your wedding package or learning more about it, please feel free to reach out. I'm here to help make your wedding experience as seamless and enjoyable as possible!
