Question 1

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

Accepted Answer

Most couples book me about 9–12 months in advance, especially for popular spring and fall dates. That said, I sometimes have availability for last-minute celebrations, so it’s always worth reaching out as soon as you know your date!

Question 2

Will you edit all our pictures?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. All final images are fully edited for color, lighting, and consistency to reflect the quality and style you see in my portfolio. I don’t deliver raw files — every image is thoughtfully finished before it reaches you. Teeth whitening, blemish removal, and similar aesthetic edits are also included in my edits for couples that prefer a little boost in their pictures.

Question 3

How long will it take to see our pictures?

Accepted Answer

I always send a few sneak peek images within 24 hours of your session or event. For portrait sessions and elopements and/or micro weddings, all images are full edited and ready to download from your private online gallery within 1-2 weeks. For larger weddings, all images are returned within 6-8 weeks depending on volume. In cases of high volume, I upload at least 50 fully edited images for you to enjoy by week 4 while you wait for the remainder. The truth is, I'm just excited for you to see your photos as you are to get them! :)

Question 4

Who do you use for a second photographer?

Accepted Answer

For a second photographer, I only use people I know personally. I have one photographer I shoot with routinely and can provide samples of their work on request.

Question 5

How many pictures will we get?

Accepted Answer

It depends on your package and hours of coverage, but generally you’ll receive over 75 edited images per hour of coverage. For full-day weddings, that usually means 400+ images.

Question 6

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

Accepted Answer

I have never missed a single wedding or portrait session, and I don’t take that commitment lightly. In the highly unlikely event of a true emergency that prevents me from being there, my trusted second photographer would step in to ensure your day is covered. I would still oversee the editing process to ensure your final gallery matches my style. To honor the inconvenience, I would also issue a partial refund to you as the couple for the Intimate, Classic, or Forever Collection.

Question 7

Do you travel for weddings?

Accepted Answer

Yes! I love traveling for love stories. Travel fees may apply depending on the distance from Melbourne, FL.

Question 8

Do you offer wedding albums?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I believe your memories deserve to live beyond a screen. I offer heirloom quality albums, prints, and wall art — all customizable to your style.

Question 9

We’re awkward in front of the camera… help?

Accepted Answer

You’re not alone! Most of my couples say this at first. I’ll guide you with natural prompts and fun interactions so you feel relaxed, and the real smiles come through.

Question 10

Are you on social media?

Accepted Answer

We stepped away from social media to focus on what matters most: you. Instead of curating feeds, we’re curating moments — genuine, joyful, heart-filled memories. You’ll find them on our site, safe from the noise of the scroll and celebrated in their own space. We believe word-of-mouth, personal recommendations, and genuine client relationships mean more than any hashtag ever could. Our couples find us through stories, not swipes — and that feels special.

Question 11

Do you require a deposit to book?

Accepted Answer

I understand that weddings are expensive, and with nearly every vendor requiring a hefty deposit up-front for services...not everyone can afford to secure all of their vendors at once. For this reason, I don't require a large up-front deposit or strict payment schedule to hold your wedding date. I only require a $100 deposit to hold your date, with the remaining balance due by your wedding day.
