Click here to complete my inquiry form. This is the first step in a collaborative, personal experience. I love reading about what makes you excited about your wedding and what you and your love are dreaming up. If we seem like a great fit, we’ll schedule a 30-ish minute call to get to know each other and discuss which package best suits your dreams

I have a few questions for you and you may have some for me. This 30-ish minute call helps us get a feel for working together. Basically, you’re deciding whether you can be yourselves around me and I’m deciding if I can meet your needs with integrity and artistry. After I hear about your vision for your wedding weekend, I’ll recommend which package I think best suits your hopes/dreams and from there I’ll create your custom proposal.

Shortly after our call, I’ll send you your custom proposal with a contract built in to minimize back-and-forth-ing and to also give you the full picture of our journey together. I only capture 2 weddings per month to maintain creative and energetic integrity — aka I can give you all of the attention you deserve on your one-and-only wedding day. Your date, therefore, is secured only by your signature and your deposit.

I will not show up to your wedding day as a stranger. The reason people look emotive, natural, and authentic in my photos is because they are. I’ve earned the right to be there because we’ve gotten to know each other. My favorite way to do this is through scheduling an engagement session. This serves as a “dress rehearsal” of sorts for nerves and expectations, This way, by your wedding day, you have no uncertainty about what it’s like to be in front of my cameras and you will know exactly what to expect (and exactly how easy and fun it is). If we don’t have an engagement session, don’t fear, we will still have plenty of touchpoints. I have several guideposts throughout our pre-wedding time where I check in to support you in any way, send you some “homework”, and schedule a call or so to collaborate on your vision and hope and dreams. We talk about the degree to which you’d like to keep your day candid vs. posed (there’s totally a spectrum here but for example, I’ve shot 2 weddings now with zero posing). We talk about creating pockets of space to ensure you’re genuinely enjoying your day. People love to talk about wanting “candid” photos but forget to allow time within their wedding day to slow down and candidly enjoy their day and be present. Whether you exchange private vows and I pretend that I’m not there (or genuinely walk away), or some intentional family time right before family photos, I always encourage people to leave some “breathing room” in their timeline. That’s where those natural, beautiful, connective photos happen. More on that in the next section…

I will never ruin a beautiful moment to take a better picture. As a mostly-documentary-style photographer with a splash of editorial vibes, I am the queen of reading the fucking room. I am keeping a keen eye out for sweet moments between the two of you and also between your cherished guests. It’s important to allow some space in your wedding timeline for these organic moments to happen. I will honor these moments by stepping back and unobtrusively capturing these treasures with my cameras... And when the time is right, I will orchestrate portraits too. Nobody knows how to pose perfectly and I am for sure there to guide. A couple “official” portrait times include family photos, wedding party photos, and portraits of you and your lover. (although, I must add that zero of these things are required). Within each of these portrait sessions, I hope to leave room for some mingling and capture that as well as the “perfect” posed portraits because they are timeless and true. Another thing to note is I’m not really a “fly on the wall”… I am chatting with your childhood friends and cracking jokes with your uncle and roasting your groomsmen. I am bossing people around when appropriate and at the same time, I know when to can it and blend into the background. A few years ago, everyone was saying “I’m like your bestie but with a camera!!”…. honestly, I’m not, It’s not about me. I want you to fully connect with your people as I document that connection. BUT I love you and am there for you and I’m silly and fun and going to take great pictures of yo uand all of your people.

I typically get a preview of your photos to you within a week after your wedding. I often deliver the film photos shortly after I get them from the lab (a few days after your wedding). The preview can be digital or film or both. After 8-12 weeks, you will receive your fill gallery hosted through Pic-Time. On average, I deliver 50-100 photos per hour of coverage.
