YOUR PHOTOGRAPHY EXPERIENCE
WEDDINGS + ELOPEMENTS
You deserve nothing short of the absolute best and I am here to make sure that is delivered. Moving forward with a photographer is a big deal. Not just for photos but for the overall experience. You are booking a photographer, friend and planner all bunched into one. Your experience can make or break the process, regardless of the photos you receive. Next, we dive into exactly what you’ll get with me - from the beginning stages to the very end.
Desire imagery that feels unique to their love story and are open to exploring how that comes to life.
Understanding that their wedding day is not just about the photos, but all the layers that make their day unique and the unfolding of a beautiful covenant.
Care about human connection and spending the most meaningful moments with their people.
Are open to embracing the imperfections and desire to live in-the-moment.
HOW IT WORKS:
step 01
INITIAL CONSULT CALL
We’ll kick things off with a quick 15-minute consultation. This is for the sole purpose of connecting faces and names. A phone call allows for familiarity and comfort, and helps me get an even better feel for your vision. I can’t wait for this exciting first step!
step 02
LOCKING THINGS IN
Now we make ourselves official, official. You’ll be sent a contract to sign, plus an invoice to make your first deposit. Once both are completed, I’m all yours.
step 03
WELCOME BOX
You’ll receive a little welcome gift from me. This is my way of saying thank you for trusting me with something so important as your wedding photos. Nothing like a few goodies, curated for you, to kick off our time together just right.
step 04
ENGAGEMENTS
Engagement sessions are designed to celebrate the two of you as a couple! It’s a chance to get some gorgeous updated photos of yourselves when you’re most in love, and to get the ball rolling on the anticipation and excitement leading up to your wedding day.
step 05
TIMELINE QUESTIONNAIRE
As your special day approaches, I will send you a form to fill out which helps me create a rough draft of your photography timeline. We’ll hop on the phone and go over all the specifics to make sure everything is running on schedule and all the final details are ready to go.
step 06
YOUR SPECIAL DAY
It’s time! Your day will be here before you know it. All you need to do is relax and have an amazing time while I capture it all from start-to-finish.
step 07
24 HOUR SNEAK PEEKS
24 hours after your big day, I’ll send you a gallery of preview photos so you can get a sense of how everything is coming along. These are yours to share and post in excitement!
step 08
DELIVERY DAY
Your complete gallery of wedding photos arrives. These timeless, beautiful images are finally yours to treasure forever. Expect your full gallery within 6-8 weeks from your big day.
HOW MANY PHOTOS WILL I RECEIVE?
For a typical wedding gallery, you can expect an average of 600-700 photos, while a typical elopement day will result in 200-300. Nevertheless, this number will vary since each wedding day is different and has unique needs.
WHAT IS YOUR TURNAROUND TIME?
The turnaround time for your completed, polished photo gallery is normally 6-8 weeks. I value quality above all else, so I make sure to take my time perfecting every gallery before sending it out. Please keep in mind that sometimes creating photos that meet these standards means that they’ll exceed the 6-8-week turnaround time.
WHERE ARE YOU BASED?
I’m based in Cincinnati Ohio, but I’d be more than happy to travel to any location you need me to. In other words, based wherever you need me most.
DO YOU HAVE ANY PREFERRED VENDORS?
Yes! I know some truly amazing vendors whom I admire and trust. If you need any recommendations, just let me know, and I can give you the names of some truly excellent people.
DO YOU HAVE PAYMENT PLAN OPTIONS?
I offer an easy-to-use payment system. After paying a $1500 retainer to secure your date, the other payments can be made anytime up to 60 days before your wedding date. Just simply pay with your credit card.
CAN WE PRINT OUR PHOTOS?
You sure can! My gallery platform makes it easy to print out any photos you desire for a discounted price.
