Question 1

Do you have insurance?

Accepted Answer

I do! Just let me know if your venue requires a certificate of liability, and I’ll send that over to them.

Question 2

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

Accepted Answer

Typically, couples book me about 7-8 months before their wedding date. I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible about my availability, even if you’re planning on a shorter time frame.

Question 3

How do you handle stress on wedding day?

Accepted Answer

Great question! I have been a professional photographer now for 10 years and have photographed over 300 weddings. I’ve seen some shit…but, I also know how to handle a variety of different situations. I always look for the best-case scenario. How could we turn a stressful situation into a win? You’ll also never see me stress, if a difficult situation arises, I handle it without you knowing so you can continue to enjoy your day!

Question 4

Are you LGBTQ+ friendly?

Accepted Answer

100% My team and I accept everyone and will treat you like family! My goal is to make you feel comfortable and enjoy the best day of your life!

Question 5

Do you travel?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Photography has taken me to many parts of the world including a variety of states within the U.S. as well as out of the country! I love traveling and seeing new places so if you have a country in mind you want your engagement session or you wedding in, let’s go!

Question 6

What kind of gear do you use?

Accepted Answer

Get ready for some technical nerdy stuff. I come equipped with all professional Sony gear including a74 and a7r5 camera bodies. For lenses, I bring a 14-24 2.8, 24-70 2.8, a 70-200 2.8, 85 1.4, and a 90 2.8 macro, and a 50 1.2. For lighting, I use Flashpoint/Godox gear including an ad600, 2 ad200s, and a couple of speedlights.

Question 7

Should we do a first look?

Accepted Answer

Personally, I like to recommend doing a first look. There are a lot of pros to doing this. It relieves a lot of stress, it gives you a moment with your love by yourselves to enjoy the moment, you get to do the family photos and your wedding portraits right after which gives you time to enjoy cocktail hour, and more.

Question 8

What's your style?

Accepted Answer

All the planning has paid off so now I like to keep things light and fun during wedding day. We’re there to celebrate your love so I’ll crack jokes with everyone, talk to your uncle about photography, and dance with grandma. All of this of course while capturing all those special moments. As far as editing, I do love rich colors with a good mix of natural light and off camera flash, and a mix of posed, prompts, and candid moments.

Question 9

How does payment work?

Accepted Answer

Excellent question. Payments are split up into 3 sections. The first is your $750 retainer, your second payment is paid 3 months before your wedding date, and your final payment is due 1 month before the big day.

Question 10

Can you work in low light venues?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! I bring my own lights to creatively light up the venue and my subject to make flattering and beautiful photos!
