Everything You Need to Know
Your Questions, Answered
01
Super simple: Once we chat and you're ready, you put down a 35% deposit to hold your date. We sign a straightforward contract—no fine print. Then payments split into five smaller chunks over time, so it's never a big hit all at once. Keeps things stress-free and budget-friendly. Just message me—we'll walk through it together.
02
Yes—I'm your photographer from start to finish. No surprises with subs. I keep things personal and calm, so you feel supported, not directed.
03
With over twelve years of experience, I stay completely unobtrusive: gentle guidance only when it helps, no marathon posing—just you being yourselves. I read the room, keep things moving without rush, and let real laughter, tears, and quiet moments happen. My calm presence means you focus on each other, not the camera.
04
No worries at all—most couples feel the same. I don't do stiff, scripted poses. Instead, I give gentle, natural cues—like "just hold each other close" or "look at her like it's just you two"—so everything feels real. If you're camera-shy, we start slow: walk together, laugh about nothing, steal a kiss. The photos come out authentic because you're not "performing"—you're just being you.
05
I've got trusted backups ready—fellow photographers who match my style. It's rare, but you're covered. We plan ahead so nothing disrupts your moment.
06
Always—extra cameras, lenses, batteries, cards. Tech fails happen; I don't let them ruin your day. Everything's double-checked before we start.
07
Every single photo gets my personal touch—no batch filters, no shortcuts. I hand-edit them all to preserve the exact skin tones, colors, and light you saw that day. They stay true-to-life, never overdone—just elevated enough to look timeless without losing the magic of the moment.
08
Engagement sessions: 10–20 days. Weddings: 4–8 weeks. Editing is hands-on (30–60 hours total) so every image feels timeless. You'll receive a private gallery first, then high-res downloads (prints available upon request).
09
Yes—all edited keepers (usually 500–1,200 images, depending on coverage hours). No heavy culling—just the best, most authentic moments from your day, delivered in high resolution for you to keep forever.
10
Absolutely. Head to the "View My Work" section to explore complete wedding galleries. I share real timelines so you can see the natural flow—from ceremony to candid moments to quiet in-between shots.
11
No. In addition to weddings, I also photograph portraits, family sessions, maternity shoots, corporate headshots, and event photography. The same calm, natural, and luxury-inspired approach applies to every session.
12
Yes—fully insured with general liability coverage for every shoot. This provides peace of mind for you and protection for everyone involved. A certificate of insurance (COI) can be provided upon request.
