when it comes to wedding photography...

"When it comes to wedding photography I consider myself a professional third wheel; I'm someone you could chill out with, someone who appreciates the authentic and unfiltered version of you! As your photographer, I promise to shoot fearlessly, go against the grain, notice the small details and most importantly, tell your authentic love story!"

Q:

cutting to the chase...how much do you cost and what do we get?

Standard wedding day photography begins at a $3,300 investment and always includes 9 hours of coverage, 2 photographers, and high-res digital images delivered through a gorgeous online gallery. Keep in mind that most of my couples invest an average of $3,800 - 4,500 

If this price tag doesn't suit your budget, shoot me an email detailing your specific needs—I might have some options for you!

Q:

how long have you been a wedding photographer?

I've been using a camera for basically my entire life! After graduating MIAD with a BFA in photography (back in 2011) I landed in the wedding business as an assistant. Since capturing my first real wedding in 2014, I've witnessed over 100 love stories!

Q:

how many weddings do you shoot per year?

I want all of my couples to be happy. Like, over the moon happy. I love being a photographer, and I also love taking naps. For these reasons I limit the number of weddings I shoot per year to 25. I get lots of rest, work super hard for my couples and never forget to take my B12 vitamin.

Q:

how would you describe your style?

My background in video production has certainly influenced my shooting style as a photographer—I love to capture movement! When I'm shooting posed portraits I like to have couples look at one another, share in laughter, and move—that's the trick to making posed pictures look natural! 

When it comes to my editing style, I focus on three important things: skin tone, black point, and highlights. I start by balancing light and color so that skin tones to look rich, healthy and warm. Then, I make sure the image has some contrast and a true black, as opposed to soft, washed out shadows. Lastly, crushed highlights and a little grain give my images that cinematic film look!

Q:

when will we receive our photos?

Officially, anywhere from 3 weeks to 3 months—it really depends on the time of year. Turn around is typically quicker between April and July, and slower between August and December. That said, 5 weeks is the sweet spot! I don't rush it, because I want you to truly love every photo I deliver!

Q:

will we receive every single image you capture?

No, but rest assured, the images that don't make the cut are just duplicates, technically flawed, or real bloopers! Although, I do sometimes include those, too ;) 

I don't guarantee a set number of images in my contract, but for a full wedding day you can expect roughly 800 edited photos.

What kind of equipment do you use?

I'm a Canon girl, I rock prime lenses (my 50mm is the real MVP) and I keep it simple with lighting equipment. I'm also a big fan of my HoldFast harness!
