My approach

what i offer and why?

The details

For a traditional wedding day where everything happens at one location, 8 hours of coverage is the perfect starting point to capture the full story of your day without feeling rushed. This timeframe allows for a stress-free timeline that ensures every meaningful moment—getting ready, your ceremony, family portraits, and the reception—is beautifully documented.

While 8 hours is the minimum coverage I offer, I understand that every wedding is unique. I provide additional options to adapt to your needs, whether you’re planning a more intimate celebration, an elopement, or a full-day event.

This coverage is perfect for capturing:
 • The quiet, emotional moments of getting ready.
 • The ceremony that brings your vision to life.
 • Family and couple portraits filled with connection and light.
 • Reception highlights like speeches, dancing, and those candid moments in between.

My approach is rooted in creating an experience where you feel seen, valued, and present, so you can trust that every moment that matters will be captured with care and artistry.

What is my turn around?

FAQ

Your wedding day deserves the perfect balance - I'll be there with clear direction during portraits, keeping your timeline smooth and stress-free, while becoming virtually invisible during those intimate ceremony and reception moments.
The best part? Your engagement session is our chance to get comfortable with posing and movement together. By your wedding day, you'll be naturals in front of the camera, needing only gentle guidance to create those effortlessly beautiful portraits.

What is your shooting style?

FAQ

I average 50-60 final images per hour that I'm actively shooting throughout the day. This estimate is normally on the lower side since I tend to be over-shooters. I love delivering my client’s files quickly and easily via an online gallery. You will have the ability to print, share and download your images as much as you want. I believe in freely sharing our work because that is what I would want if we were in your shoes!

How many images can I expect?

FAQ

Yes, After signing your contract and securing your retainer fee, you can break your balance down into 4, 6, or 7 payments that wrap 30 days before your wedding.

Do you offer supportive payment options?
