Wedding & elopement guide

Virginia wedding couple photo

Hey You!

I know how overwhelming planning a wedding can be, and I know how many choices you have when selecting the person who will document the biggest day of your lives, so I appreciate you taking the time to view this guide and consider me be to that person for you.

I know for a fact that the most important investment you will make in this process will be your photographer. This person will be in charge of creating the images you will look back at to remember your day. This will also be the vendor you will spend most of your time with! My goal is to make these photographs tell your love and your story for all the years to come.

I’m here to help and make things as easy as possible. After looking over this page, if you feel we could be a great fit together, let’s talk wedding plans!

It would be my honor to document this day for you

 FAQs

  • Please reach out via the contact form in the about me section. I will send you back some information on what it’s like to work with me, what you can expect from me and the current rates. We can chat via FaceTime, over coffee or on a phone call. Once you and your partner feel ready to book, we’ll get an agreement to you and invoice for the NRR and book your date!

  • I use full frame Nikon Z bodies and Nikon prime lenses as well as a beautiful assortment of zoom lenses.

  • Bookings usually start 10 – 12 months in advance. It never hurts to check, but the earlier the better to make sure your date is available

  • This all depends on how much you need or want photographed. My most popular package is an all day coverage package, so you don’t have to worry about a photographer timeline! During our initial talk, we'll go over your plans and ideas for how the day will go. From there we will make a rough - very rough timeline for your day and recommend a package.

  • I’ve been shooting weddings of all kinds (long, short and quickie-vegas style) since 2011! 700+ weddings and counting! As a photographer we love working with all kinds of lighting situations and work hard to get authentic emotion and energy from our subjects!

  • For the best results we need a minimum of the following:

    Couple getting ready before the ceremony: 30 mins to 1 hour

    Location & detail shots: 30 min

    Ceremony: 15 min to 45 min

    Family & Group shots: 15 min to 45 min

    Couple portraits: 45 min to 2 hours

    Reception: 1 hour to 3 hours

    You can also chose to decline some of these, and re-arrange the schedule. If you want to do a first look, the couple portraits and group shots can get done before the ceremony and reception. We will go over a schedule for your day.

  • Once you have signed your wedding agreement with me, there is $700 retainer fee that is non-refundable. Please understand, you’re still receiving a service. The service you paid for with your retainer is your consultation time and that, should someone call us up and ask about your wedding date, our response is “sorry, we’re booked.” If your wedding is re-scheduled please let us know within 30 days of the event date, we will try to accommodate to the new date but even then there is no way of knowing if your new date will be available.

  • The total balance must be paid in full at least 30 days prior to your event date.

  • Yes!! We love to travel to photograph weddings in different locations. Shoot me an email to find out more.

  • I would lose count! We photograph the entire the day and make sure to cover whatever is happening. On average you will receive 50-80 images for each hour of shooting. All the images are edited for color, exposure and sharpness.
