Question 1

Why hire me to be your wedding photographer?

Accepted Answer

When you hire me as your wedding photographer, my role is so much more than taking photos. I’m here to ease the anxiety and be your biggest hype person from the moment you slip into your wedding dress until your sparkler exit at the end of the night. Not only will I be by your side for whatever you need, I can ensure that your gallery will reflect your personality and style as you enter the beginning of spending the rest of your lives together.

Question 2

How far in advance should/can I book?

Accepted Answer

Whenever you are ready is best! The sooner the better so that you can be sure to lock in your date. Currently, I book weddings a maximum of 2 years in advance.

Question 3

I’m having an intimate or elopement wedding, do you have smaller packages with shorter lengths of coverage?

Accepted Answer

I do! I absolutely love intimate weddings and elopements! Reach out to me with the details of your day and we can chat about options that will work best for you.

Question 4

Will there be a 2nd photographer?

Accepted Answer

Select wedding packages include 2 photographers, myself as the lead and a second photographer. However, you can always request to add a 2nd shooter to your package if it doesn't already include one.

Question 5

Can I have all the unedited images?

Accepted Answer

Just like an artist wouldn’t sell an unfinished painting, I don't release unedited photos. Raw images don't represent my work at its final, highest quality. But not to worry, any undelivered images are due to blur or blinks, are unflattering, or are duplicates from rapid photo shooting.

Question 6

When will I receive my images, and how many?

Accepted Answer

All weddings receive a sneak peek within 72 hours of the wedding day. After that, you can expect your completed online gallery in 8 weeks or less. Intimate/elopement weddings with shorter coverage can expect their gallery within 4 weeks. You will receive a minimum of 50 final images for each hour of coverage, but can expect more. I know how eager you'll be to see your stunning gallery and it's my top priority to get it to you as soon as possible.

Question 7

Do you travel?

Accepted Answer

Yes! I am based in New Jersey, but am booking weddings anywhere in the U.S. as well as internationally. Ask me about your location and if traveling fees apply.

Question 8

How would you describe your style?

Accepted Answer

I like to describe my work as a documentation of warm, romantic, genuine moments and true highlight of all the candid moments as they unfold naturally. A lot of my favorite wedding photos are the in-between moments of my couples smiling and laughing together, completely unprompted by me. That being said, I’m happy to help direct during couples portraits if you feel like you don’t know what to do with your hands or where to put your feet. I tend to offer prompts that include a little bit of motion and encourage interaction with each other so the images look more fluid and really show off the way the couple naturally interacts.

Question 9

What's the booking process like?

Accepted Answer

After we've had a chance to chat about your vision for your wedding day and we go over my pricing guide, once you're ready to book, I'll send over a contract agreement for you to review and digitally sign. Once that's done, I'll send over your invoice for your 30% retainer payment to officially reserve your date. From there we'll have a few more meetings to plan your engagement session as well as chat the final wedding timeline. And then you get to enjoy all your hard work on your incredible wedding day!
