FAQs
How customizable is each package?
After years of doing this, I have come to find most people need an 8, 9, or 10-hour package. However, if you have a different number of hours in mind or want to add anything additional to a package, just let me know and I can build you a custom package with a custom quote!
Do I offer Prints & Albums?
Yes! Your gallery link will have a PRINT SHOP tab integrated with it so that you can easily drop and drag any photos to a shopping cart. There is a wide assortment of different products at all price points you can purchase from one of the top print labs in the country. I do not require printing through me, but highly recommend it to ensure the best quality, papers, & inks!
How many images do we get, how do we get them, and when will we get them?
On average, I will deliver around 500 final high resolution, professionally edited images! Turn around time for photos is within 8-10 weeks of your wedding date. I always send a sneak peak of 10 images within 72 hours of your wedding! You will receive your gallery of final photos in a shareable link that can easily be viewed & saved on your phone or desktop by all guests! Here is an example of how your wedding gallery will be delivered:

Do you offer help in planning the day?
100% YES!!! I love helping plan your day to help it run as swiftly as possible for you both! Need help figuring out the most epic location spots for stunning photos? The best time of day to get those incredible couple portraits? I got you covered 100% and am available for you to contact or meet to discuss options!
Do I use photoshop?
I do go through individually on photos and retouch them and do some light skin smoothing. All of your photos will be edited in a certain style to create a cohesive story of your wedding day. I can remove blemishes, scratches, & bruises, if needed. However, I do not like to create any fake effects or alter your appearance in any way, you are perfect the way you are, & I am here to make you feel naturally beautiful in your photos!
Why would I want a second photographer?
I am fully capable of photographing your day solo. However, there are some major benefits to having a second photographer for your day. A second photographer means more perspectives, angles, and expertise for your photos. They often can capture more details throughout your day, than my time allows. They especially come in handy during your ceremony time, allowing many perspectives of this special moment to be captured. Having a second photographer generally helps the day run faster, smoother, and more efficiently as they serve as a second pair of eyes and hands for anything needed! I highly recommend them if your wedding will be over 75 people. Second photographers can be booked at a minimum of 4 hours and cost $50 an hour to add to any of your packages!
