Do you recommend eloping?

I can't think of a better way to get married! Logistically speaking, they require less planning, can be MUCH cheaper (since you don’t have to rent a venue- often one of the largest wedding-related costs) and grant you the opportunity to get married almost wherever you want! There is a great deal of social pressure surrounding large wedding events and elopements and intimate weddings lessen this stressful burden and simplify things. You can always plan a large reception for friends and family for when you return from an elopement. I have never heard of anyone saying they regretted their decision to elope!   

Who did your website?

I did a lot of the custom coding, but I started with a beautiful design kit from a company called Squaremuse. Check ‘em out!    

How long do we have to wait for our photos?

While it varies based on workload, I allow myself up to six weeks for delivery of the full, edited gallery. I always aim to deliver sooner though.  

How would you describe your photography style as it pertains to couples and portraiture?

I've pondered this question a lot. Photojournalistic. Natural. Modern. Design-oriented. Contemplative. Observant. Joyous. Emotional. Intimate. I'm inspired by photographers like Todd Hido, Alex Webb, Andre Wagner- visionaries with intuitive talents for composition, design, light and who's photos are highly observant and infused with a sense of curiosity.  

What are you like on a wedding day?

I am a laid back, stress-relieving presence :)

 

 

Do you offer prints?

I use a beautiful gallery hosting site called Pic-Time for all client galleries and you, along with friends and family, will be able to order prints directly through the site should you choose! I also give couples full download and printing rights for personal printing choices.

Do you offer albums?

I do! Beautiful handmade albums are available either as an add-on to any package, or included as part of some of my higher tier packages. Inquire for more info!

Are we a good match?

If there's one thing I've learned in my photography journey, it's that connection is important. I may not be a good match for everyone but that is ok. My couples understand the value of photography and regard it as a worthy investment. They prioritize it for their day. They want to work with me not only because they enjoy my photos, but also because they are excited at the idea of us creating together. I want to work with couples who aren't afraid to enthusiastically embrace the process and open up in front of the camera. Vulnerability, trust, optimism and an open mind are essential ingredients for excellent photos.   

What can we expect when shooting with you?

You can expect a fun, laid-back experience. I like to capture things as they unfold, letting the two of you interact with each other in a way that is natural and effortless. My goal is to capture your love and what it looks and feels like- rather than dictating how it should look. I want the photos I make to be dynamic and full of life- a true reflection of your lives as individuals and as a couple. You can expect fun and intimacy with your partner. I like to direct and talk to you as we go, but never in a way that makes the photos look uncomfortable or stiff.     

Do you work with second shooters?

Yes. I work with a handful of photographer friends whom I trust fully and who run their own successful businesses.
