inquiries
How long does editing take?
Engagement and lifestyle sessions are delivered within 3-4 weeks. For weddings, I will send you a handful of sneak peek shots within a week after your wedding. approximately 8-12 weeks later, you'll receive a link to your online photo gallery and/or wedding video to relive your special day.
Do you shoot on film?
Yes! I shoot both 35mm film photos and Super 8mm film video–I love the timeless, nostalgic feel film adds to a story. Film photography is included in my 2 hour session package and can be added to a one-hour session. Super 8mm video is available as an add-on for sessions lasting an hour or more. For weddings and elopements, I offer both film photography and Super 8mm video to capture your day in a beautifully timeless way!
How do we book you?
I’d love to connect with you! Please fill out the inquiry form on my contact page, and once we’re in touch, we can hop on a phone or video call so I can get to know you and your vision. You'll also receive access to my full wedding galleries and other essential details. To officially secure your date, a 25% retainer and signed contract are required. For couples and lifestyle sessions, a video call isn’t necessary, and a 50% retainer secures your session date!
Are you insured?
Yes, I am! I’d be happy to send over a copy of my COI to your venue if they need it.
How long have you been a wedding photographer?
2 years!
Just because someone’s a photographer doesn’t mean they’re a wedding photographer–big difference! If you’re looking for one, definitely ask about their actual wedding experience. It matters!
I’ve been a photographer for 5 years, but for the past 2, I’ve been a full-time wedding & elopement photographer. I added video in 2024!
Do you travel for weddings?
Absolutely! I love traveling for weddings and elopements. From camping, backpacking, and hiking, across Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, Montana, and Wyoming–to exploring 25 states (and counting)–adventure is in my DNA. Whether it’s wide-open deserts, mountain peaks, or hidden forests, I’ll meet you there. If you’re planning a destination wedding, my passport is ready–just tell me where we’re headed!
Do you have full wedding galleries I can look through?
If you’re not already asking this when chatting with photographers, definitely add it to your list!
I make sure every couple sees at least one full wedding gallery–because it’s so important to get the full picture of my style throughout the entire day.
