photography should never be a one-way transaction. it’s important to hire a photographer who thinks intuitively and feels genuinely. being able to capture and freeze raw and intimate moments through a documentary approach not only elevates the experience of nostalgia but also makes one realize that a genuine relationship with whoever is shooting your wedding or elopement, really makes all the difference. establishing an inclusive environment for couples to feel valued and their love stories heard ultimately allows for raw emotion and connection to flow seamlessly. thus setting the stage for many picture-perfect moments.
after you've inquired with me, we will schedule a meeting either in person or virtually to make sure we will be a good fit. during this introductory call, we will mostly focus on getting to know each other and the vision of your elopement or micro-wedding. specifically, not just what you want it to look like, but how you want it to feel. once we've scheduled a meeting, i will send over my customized pricing guide based off of your vision.
if we both feel as though our values align, then i will send over a contract for you to sign and pay the non-refundable deposit. your date is not secured until the contract has been signed and the non-refundable deposit paid. once both of those things have been signed and sealed, the planning process will begin! you will receive 24/7 access to my personal cell phone number where you can ask any questions via text or phone call at any time. we’ll also meet up at least two more times (at minimum) in person or virtually to go over timeline and details leading up to your wedding, elopement, or session.
during our pre-planning calls, i offer timeline assistance as a way to gauge the overall flow of the day however, the timeline is not a strict outline of the day because rigid schedules may take away from being fully present. when your special day arrives, it‘s important to remember that this day is about being with the person you love and everyone involved wants to celebrate the two of you; including myself!
once the big day is over, you can expect sneak peeks within a week and your full photo gallery within 4-6 weeks. sometimes longer depending on how busy i am. take some time to be in love, decompress, and then get excited to relive your day all over again. i cannot wait to work with you!
