For weddings I require a 35% retainer at time of booking to reserve your date in my calendar, and the remaining 65% is due a minimum of two months before your wedding date. For sessions it is 50% with the rest due 2 weeks before the session! The first payment is non-refundable, see contract for full details! I accept payments via card, venmo, or zelle. 

For weddings, if you've already put a deposit down on a specific date and then have to move/cancel it, the deposit is non-refundable and a new deposit will have to be made in order to hold your new date. Anything additional you've paid after the deposit will be refunded or applied to your new date. See contract for details!
For sessions, if I have another date available, we can just change the date! If you're canceling all together, the deposit is non-refundable.

Whenever I book a wedding, I block out the entire date just for you! So if you need extra time, just shoot me a text and it is no problem to add it on.

Some of my favorite photos ever have been in crazy weather! Embracing the weather
makes for incredible photos. The only time we can't shoot in certain weather is if my
gear will be ruined by excessive rain, in which case we can easily find somewhere
sheltered to take some photos!
Plus, rain is a sign of good luck on your wedding day!

I don't do set numbers on my collections because every session and wedding varies so much from the next, so it would be impossible to guarantee a photo count. Regardless of the number though, I make sure to capture all of the big and little things because these are your memories and I won't skimp on preserving them for you. So don't worry about limits! I usually estimate about 75-100 photos per hour, depending on many factors (guest count, events, ceremony time, etc.) - but this is just a general estimate based on the average wedding!

Typically for sessions it takes 2-4 weeks, and for weddings about 4-6 weeks depending on the season!

I don't because editing is half the magic that goes into the creative process. If you feel I left out or forgot to deliver a specific image, there is a 7 day window from delivery that gives you the chance to make requests!

I always suggest to bring options! 3 outfit options is perfect as it gives us variety and options to choose an outfit that looks best with the lighting and location. As a general rule of thumb, I suggest to bring outfits you feel like yourself in and that you feel comfortable moving around in. Other than that, anything that can show movement or catch wind looks epic in photos! I will also send out an outfit guide before your session.

Heaven forbid this happens, but in the extremely rare case that an emergency comes up that holds me back from making it to your wedding (family death, car accident, on my death bed, etc) I'll do my best to send a replacement photographer to shoot your wedding day. In the case that I cannot find a replacement for your wedding day you will be fully refunded.

Besides color correcting, I retouch impermanent blemishes/marks/bruises. I don't retouch anything that is a part of your body (curves, double chins, etc) because I believe this is what makes you beautiful. If you're particularly self conscious about something please let me know as I want you to feel 100% comfortable and confident with the posing and direction I give you while we shoot!

Absolutely! Just let me know what you need help with, if you need recommendations, and if there's anything I can do to make the process easier for you!

Yes I do! Both families and maternity. Just fill out a contact form and we'll get it all planned out.
