what to expect

When you choose to work with me, you can expect a blend of professionalism with an even-tempered approach. To begin our journey together, I find it very helpful to connect via either a phone call or video chat. This allows us to ensure compatibility and alignment with your wedding vision. During this initial conversation, I'm eager to learn about not just your photography needs, but the entirety of your wedding plans. Drawing from my experience and expertise, I'll make sure to present a collection with options that best suit your needs.

Once you've selected a collection, I'll prepare a contract for your review and signature. Upon confirmation, a non-refundable retainer is required to secure your date. From there, I remain readily available for ongoing communication in the months and weeks leading up to your special day.

WHAT IF I DON’T FEEL COMFORTABLE GETTING MY PHOTO TAKEN?
