This is my process:
I. Book the date.
Email me your preferred date and I'll let you know if it's available. Last-minute inquiries are always welcome! Once we confirm, I'll send a contract and a 50% retainer locks in your date. Payment via Zelle, credit card (3.3% fee), or cash.
II. Enjoy Your Day
I'll take care of everything behind the camera so you can just be with the people you love. If you've never posed before, don't worry - I'll guide you through it and keep things fun and relaxed.
III. Receive Your Photos
Once we're finished, I'll upload all your photos to an online gallery within 1-2 days. From there, you can pick your favorites - or if you'd prefer, I can choose them for you. Your final, edited photos will be ready within 10 business days!
How does the booking process work?
Once we've confirmed your date and time, I'll send over a contract for you to review and sign. To lock in your date, I'll need a 50% retainer. As for payment, I try to make it as easy as possible – you can pay via credit card (3.3% service fee) or Zelle. Whatever works best for you!
Do the packages include family and guest photos?
Absolutely! All packages come with a mix of couple photos, individual shots, and group photos with your family and friends. We want to make sure everyone important to you is included in your special day.
Can you be our witness?
It would be my honor! Just give me a heads up in advance, and we'll make it happen. I love being part of such a special moment!
We feel a bit awkward in front of the camera. Will you help us with posing?
Of course! I’ll guide you through every step of the process. I always have a moodboard with pose ideas, and I can suggest plenty of options. I like mixing posed shots with candid moments to keep everything feeling relaxed and natural!
Will you remove unwanted people from the background? Do you retouch photos?
Yes, basic retouching is included in all my packages! That covers things like light skin retouching, color correction, and general cleanup. If we're shooting on those gorgeous main stairs and there are a few people in the background, I can remove them in post-processing.
For any extra retouching requests (like under-eye bag removal, teeth whitening, fabric adjustments, removing wrinkles, fixing hair, etc.), I offer those services for an additional fee, usually $4-5 per photo.
Do you offer video services?
Yes, I do! just et me know if you'd like to discuss the details, and we can go over what you're envisioning to ensure everything is captured just the way you'd like.
