Where are you located?
I live in Reno, Nevada but I am servin' up hot ass pics to all of Lake Tahoe + Northern California. I also LOVE to travel for my couples.
Will you photoshop us?
I will edit out blemishes, distractions in the background, and small things, but I don't do retouching in Photoshop. I capture the real shit, not the fake shit. I want you to look like yourself in the photos I deliver.
How many images are included?
I don't guarantee a set number, because it deeply depends on the events of the day. However, I typically deliver a minimum of 50 edited images for every hour of coverage.
How does payment work?
I have a handy dandy online system that is set up the second you inquire with me. Through that system, I make invoices and contracts and payments can be made online. I require a $500 deposit and I set up multiple payments throughout our time planning together. The full amount must be paid 2 weeks before the wedding.
What if someone doesn't want everything that's included in your wedding package? Is it cheaper?
It's a take it or leave it situation - the price does not change. I only take on 7 couples per year so that I can give every single one of them my all and make their wedding photography experience super badass.
Lgbtqia+, cultural, religious backgrounds, etc.?
YOU. ARE. SAFE. HERE. I love you, I want to learn about you, and I want to support you. I'm a ride or die for everybody.
My ideal couple doesn’t look a certain way, or act a certain way. My ideal couple is simply in love and deeply kind.
What is your turnaround time?
You’ll get your rehearsal dinner + wedding sneaks in 1 week and the full gallery in 9 weeks. Engagement, boudoir, and legacy sessions take 5 weeks.
What if we
cancel/
reschedule our date?
Listen, I operate as a human first no matter what. I want to do everything I can to shoot your wedding and I don't care what it takes. I just ask for full communication when it comes to the rescheduling process so I can make sure I'm available for the new date/location. If you have to cancel your wedding altogether, I would hang onto the $500 retainer and refund you whatever you paid outside of that amount.
Do you help in the planning process?
I am good, and I mean painfully good at internet research and scouting. I will be there, just a text or an email or a FaceTime away for the entire planning process. I want to be the one you call to vent to when you need it, but also be a reliable resource throughout the planning! I've got hella advice.
How do travel expenses work?
Travel is the only thing that is not included in my wedding package. I'd love to go anywhere with you, I just need a flight and a hotel!
West Coast (outside of Tahoe region): $800
For the Midwest + East Coast + beyond: $1,300
For international travel: Let's chat about it! I REALLY want to create with you abroad!
Do you photograph proposals, families, seniors, etc.?
Since I offer so many shoots in my wedding package and I am a full time mom, there isn't a ton of space in my calendar for additional projects. For past couples, I will do everything I can to continue capturing all of your special moments. Reach out anyway and if I can't make it work, I'll be sure to refer you to the best of the best instead.
Do you still recommend hiring a day-of coordinator or wedding planner?
While I do help quite a bit outside of my photography scope, the planning assistance I offer is nowhere near as detailed as the work of a planner or day-of coordinator. Planners help balance ALL of your vendors. In most instances, I definitely recommend one, but if you're unsure, let's chat about it!
