Question 1

Do you have insurance?

Accepted Answer

I do! I have insurance on both myself and my equipment, if your venue needs proof of that I'm more than happy to send that over to them.

Question 2

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

Accepted Answer

I've never had to cancel a wedding so no worries there. I have a large network of very capable and talented photographers who are more than happy to step in for each other in case of injury, sickness, etc. It's only happened twice in my career and it went off without a problem. The alternate photographer would be there the day of but I would still edit all of the images in my style and handle everything else. You'd be in great hands in the very small chance I'm unable to be there :)

Question 3

How many pictures will we get?

Accepted Answer

Each wedding day is different but I average about 100-150 images per hour of coverage. Of course that can vary based on how many guests are in attendance, what events are happening during the day, and other factors. But rest assured, I include all of the good photos and won't skimp on how many images are in your gallery.

Question 4

How long will it take to see our pictures?

Accepted Answer

I'm always super excited to see the photos and get them to you so I will send a handful of sneak peeks within 48 hours of the event! Then my usual turn around time is 4-6 weeks depending on the season. I tend to be closer to the 4 week mark but always like to give some wiggle room in case life happens or I'm in my extra busy season which is typically sept-oct.

Question 5

How does your pricing work?

Accepted Answer

I price everything a la carte because I know that one size doesn't fit all when it comes to weddings. Many of my couples find that package pricing makes them pay for services they don't really need. My pricing structure is hourly with add ons such as a second photographer or engagement session and travel fee. Most traditional full weddings are between 6-8 hours and most elopement style days are 3-4 hours.

Question 6

Do you work with assistants or other photographers?

Accepted Answer

Most of the time I work by myself but absolutely love working with a second photographer should you choose to add it on. My pricing structure is a la carte so you only have to pay for a second photographer should you deem it necessary. If you're unsure if you'd like one we can hop on a consult call to talk more about your vision and needs!

Question 7

Are you an inclusive photographer?

Accepted Answer

YES! Being queer myself I fully respect and celebrate love in all forms. As long as you are a kind and compassionate human I want to work with you. I make sure that your identity is respected throughout my entire process, from asking pronouns in my intake form, asking about any family situations I should be aware of in my final prep form, and respecting if you'd like to keep your images off social media for whatever reason. You deserve to feel safe!

Question 8

How long do you keep our online gallery active?

Accepted Answer

The formal answer is a year, but the real answer is kind of indefinitely. My gallery system doesn't charge me to keep your gallery active so I still have weddings on there from 2017. While I highly suggest downloading your images onto a flash drive or CD or cloud system right away, rest assured you will have access to your images for a long time in case something happens.
