I offer a truly personalized experience, taking the time to understand your vision, style, and unique story. From our first conversation to delivering your photos, you’ll always work directly with me.

 

3. How far in advance should we book our wedding photographer?

It's recommended to book your wedding photographer 9–12 months in advance, especially if you're planning a wedding during peak seasons (spring, summer, or fall). Top photographers' schedules fill quickly, so securing your date early is crucial.

​

Engagement sessions are available as an add-on to wedding packages at a discount. They’re a great way to get comfortable in front of the camera and build a connection with your photographer before the big day.

Absolutely! Professional photographers always carry backup cameras, lenses, memory cards, and lighting equipment to ensure nothing is missed due to technical issues. I shoot with two cameras so I have a back up camera at my fingertips.

​

11. Do you offer albums or printed products?

Yes and no. The included online portfolio that is included in every package is also an online store for high-quality printed products, including canvas prints, and fine art prints, framed or unframed. I provide a link to a company that specializes in wedding albums. You arrange the images on your computer and then they will print your album.

​

Yes, of course I do that all the time. Accurate addresses and names if a museum for example are a must however and Google Maps will get me to any location.

My basic packages do not include a  second photographer or assistant. I have a list of other lead photographers that I work with if a second photographer is needed.

​

19. Do you offer video services as well?

No, not directly. But I have a list of great videographers that I work with who I can confidently recommend. I provide a list of their websites for you to view.
