Question 1

What is the process for booking you?

Accepted Answer

First, we’ll schedule a call to see if our styles and vision align. Once we’re confident we’re a perfect fit, I’ll prepare a contract and send an invoice—25% of your wedding booking is due as a deposit, with the remainder spread out throughout the year for your convenience. You’ll also receive a carefully crafted questionnaire and a comprehensive wedding guide, and I’ll work with you to create a thoughtful timeline that ensures your day flows seamlessly.

Question 2

How long does it take to receive the photos after the wedding and how will those be delivered?

Accepted Answer

I want your photos to be absolutely perfect, and I take great care to ensure every image reflects the beauty and emotion of your day. You’ll receive a sneak peek within 72 hours—because I know how excited you’ll be to see what we created together! Your full gallery will be delivered 4–6 weeks later through a private online link, where you’ll have unlimited downloads of all edited images. From there, you can easily download, share, select your favorites, and even order prints to enjoy your memories for years to come.

Question 3

How many pictures will we receive?

Accepted Answer

The number of hours and images depends on the package you choose. My base package includes 6 hours of coverage and 600+ edited photos, with additional packages offering extended coverage and even more curated images. Contact me to learn more about which package is the perfect fit for your day!

Question 4

Where are you based and do you travel?

Accepted Answer

I’m based in Asheville, NC, but my camera loves to travel as much as I do. Whether you dream of saying “I do” atop misty mountains, on a sun-kissed beach, or in a hidden gem anywhere in the world, I would be honored to capture your love in your perfect setting. Travel fees may apply depending on the location, but no distance is too far to create images that are artful, cinematic, and completely reflective of your story. I specialize in bringing an editorial, story-driven approach to every wedding and elopement, ensuring that your destination celebration feels effortless, luxurious, and unforgettable.

Question 5

How long have you been doing photography?

Accepted Answer

Photography has been my passion for as long as I can remember, but I began pursuing it professionally 11 years ago while photographing for the Ole Miss football team. Over the past 6 years, I’ve specialized in weddings, capturing more than 150 celebrations with a documentary-editorial approach that blends emotion, elegance, and timeless storytelling. Along the way, I’ve also photographed families, studio sessions, and editorial projects. I hold a BFA in Photography from RMCAD, and I love connecting with couples to create imagery that reflects their unique love story. I can’t wait to learn more about yours!

Question 6

How far in advance should we book you for our wedding?

Accepted Answer

Couples typically book me about a year in advance, but I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible—even if your wedding is on a shorter timeline. I’m happy to discuss your date and see if we can create a beautiful, artful experience together.

Question 7

Can you help with my timeline?

Accepted Answer

I’ll help you craft the perfect timeline for your wedding day so you can fully enjoy every moment. From guiding the best times for bridal party and family photos to finding the ideal locations and capturing the golden hour for your portraits, I ensure your day flows seamlessly. On your wedding day, I focus on capturing your love, raw emotions, quiet and lively moments, and all the details that make your celebration uniquely yours. My goal is to make you feel comfortable, beautiful, and stress-free while creating timeless, artful images that reflect the true essence of your relationship.
