Where are you located?

I’m currently living in Jacksonville, Florida!

Do you give any RAW images?

I do not. I believe that editing is half the creative process and what brings your images to life! I will never intentionally leave out images from your gallery, but if you think I have just reach out! I’m human and make mistakes sometimes!

When can we expect our photos?

My turnaround time depends on what season we’re in and how busy that season is. Typically I take 2 weeks or less for couples sessions and 7 weeks or less for elopements/weddings. I know you are sooo excited to see your photos as soon as possible but I want to make sure I’m giving each image the time it needs!

How do we receive our photos?

You will receive your gallery through my professional online gallery website. From there you can download your high resolution photos straight to your computer or phone. I also have my professional printing press linked to your gallery so it makes it super easy for you to buy high quality prints!

How many images do you give?

It depends on how much time we spend together! I don’t believe in a set number of photos in a gallery - I promise to include as many images as possible. You shouldn’t have to miss out on any of your beautiful moments!

Can you photoshop us?

I do not photoshop your bodies other than temporary blemishes (acne, bruises, scrapes) as I believe in promoting body positivity. If you are self conscious about something please let me know so I can try to be sensitive while directing during your shoot/wedding.

What happens if there is rain/snow/etc. during our shoot/wedding?

I tell all my couples to embrace the broken, and sometimes that means going with the flow of the weather (unless it’s miserable or harmful to you or my camera gear). If both of our schedules allow for a reschedule we totally can!

What do we have to do to book you?

After we finalize that we are a great fit for each other, I’ll send you a 50% deposit and a contract for you to sign. Once those have been submitted you will officially have your date saved on my calendar!

What if we need to cancel/reschedule our wedding?

If your deposit has already been made, it is legally non-refundable and a new deposit will have to be made to hold your new date. The reason? Because the second I put your date on my calendar I say no to other inquiries!

*COVID-19 cases: in the event that your elopement/wedding is forced to be rescheduled due to Covid-19 and I am available, we can reschedule your date without putting a new deposit down. If you decide to cancel altogether, your deposit is still legally non-refundable.

What happens if you can’t make it to our wedding?

If anything were to happen out of my control (illness, harsh weather conditions, death in the family) I would do my best to to find an associate photographer of the same skill and style that I trust to shoot your event and I would still edit your images.

How do travel expenses work?

I have you pay the minimum (roundtrip flight, transportation, and stay for at least 2 nights accommodation) and then I cover the remainder (food, gas, etc.) I’m open to staying with you or your family/friends to help you save $! For booking, I book my flight, transportation, and stay. I make sure to consent with you before booking anything so you aren’t blindsided by any costs. For estimations on cost, you can look up how much local hotels/airbnbs are, rental cars, and roundtrip flights from JAX.
