FAQ

what sets you apart from other photographers?

I believe fully that my clients wants and needs are the most important part of my job and I will go above and beyond to make your wedding planning process and wedding day wonderful! My favorite part of my job is the people I get to meet and capture and I value connection with each person in front of my lens. This means that not only will the moments captures be authentic but we will have a darn good time too!

How long does it take to recieve photos after the session or wedding and how will those be delivered?

Sessions take 2 weeks to receive your photos back! For weddings, you will receive sneak peeks within 3 days of your wedding and your full gallery within 2 months! All galleries will go to your email in an online gallery format.

Do you have a list of preferred vendors?

Yes! I have worked with some AMAZING vendors from planners, florists and hair and makeup artists to venues and videographers & I would love to share their information with you!
