FAQ

I love all  of the moments in your life that you want to document. It does not need to be a wedding or portrait session. Own a business? Let's get your branding and content created. Bought a new house or added a fur baby to your family? Let's meet up and document you celebrating. Big promotion or retirement! I'll be there! I have covered just about everything from Proposals, Engagements, Rehearsals, Weddings, Pregnancy Journeys, Growing Families, Annual Family Portraits, Vacation Memories, Couples, Graduations, Business/branding, Food, Air B&B listings, Parties, Showers, and any just because in between. 

I like to get to know my clients and ensure their comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. I spend time with each client or family to build a relationship with them. I can tell a difference in the relaxed expressions and natural smiles my clients give me when they are not being rushed and we take the time to go over poses, prompts, make wardrobe adjustments or when things become unpredictable. Some sessions take longer than others, and sometimes we get what we needed quicker than expected. I view each session as a "whatever it takes" and typically that takes more than 15-20 mins. This is why you hired me, its not just about the quick picture, its about the story you're building unfolding, year after year, milestone after milestone. 

Each Session or wedding will require a nonrefundable retainer of 20% of the total session/wedding fee to reserve their date. After that, the final balance is due 14 days before the session/wedding. This ensures that clients will show up and not cancel. We can always change the date if the weather is bad or someone gets sick. Life happens, and I try to be as flexible for you as I can be. 

I know we all want to look our best. As a photographer, my job is to help you have fun while documenting the occasion you hire me for while helping you pose in the most flattering way. I do not do body enhancements/alterations, but I will  do my best to spot treat things that would naturally heal within 2 weeks such as: Acne, scratches, bruises. Upon request.

You can book me from as little as 1 hour to multi day events. Each wedding day is different and each Bride has a different vision and need. When we chat together about your wedding day, I will have you tell me about the events of the day you need covered and go over your timeline, after that we can determine how many hours of coverage will be needed to ensure the day's events your cherish most are not missed. Some brides only need 4-6, and some require 8-10. An average wedding day is typically 8 hours. 

Typically 2-4 weeks is my turn around time during normal conditions. If something on my end will make that change like a busy fall session line-up, I am very good about communicating that to you so you don't have to wonder. I am always anxious to get you back your images and post them myself. 

You will get back what ever I take so long as its in line with my work. So no blurry, closed eyes, or un-flattering images, will be included. Sometimes I play around with duplicates and give it an alternative edit or flare.
