FAQs

I get this concern often but honestly, there is nothing to be worried about. Most couples I work with haven't been in front of a camera since high school senior photos, so nerves are totally normal. Just be yourself! I am constantly giving you direction, feedback and encouragement. You will have so much fun you'll forget the camera is even there. I promise. Read more about the experience I've provided to past clients in my my google reviews or in my featured reviews listed below.

It's quick and easy! After you decide on how many hours of coverage you would like to book (don't worry if you don't know I can help you decide!), I will send you an invoice via Square that can either be paid online with a credit/debit card or you have the option to send a check directly to me for a discounted rate. I will also send you a digital contract to sign. Once your 50% deposit is paid and your contract is signed, your wedding date is officially locked down and no longer available to future clientele.

Each one of my couples receives a detailed wedding guide, vendor guide and the chance to meet up with me whenever is needed. I love to help create a custom timeline and give advice about getting ready locations, ceremony set up, and more. Hand edited images, an online password protected gallery with access to high resolution images and ability to purchase prints is also included. Add on's include a second shooter, various album sizes and an engagement session.

I've had the amazing chance to photograph couples all over the United States (Washington, Oregon, California, Utah, Idaho, South Carolina, Pennsylvania, Washington D.C., and Virginia.) As well as Hawaii, Mexico, Ireland and India. I am always ecstatic when a couples decides to bring me along for their elopement, wedding or session.

4-8 weeks for portrait sessions (engagement, family etc.) and 6-12 weeks for weddings. I carefully hand edit each image and tackle each session or wedding in chronological order so I really appreciate your patience!

Although I recently moved to the Portland area, I am still photographing a good amount of work in the Seattle area and Washington in general. For weddings/sessions located more than 30 minutes (driving distance) outside of Portland, Oregon I charge 58 cents per mile and for weddings/sessions located more than 2 hours outside of the Portland I require accommodations. For the Seattle, Spokane and Poulsbo area specifically, I often do not need accommodations since I have family living in those areas!

I love the chance to meet potential clients. We spend a lot a lot of time together during your session or wedding and it's nice to know that we connect and get along well. For pre-booking meetings, I schedule FaceTime meetings so we have a chance to meet face-to-face and get to know each other better. During this meetings I'm an open book and happy to answer any questions you might have. Once you book, I'm open to meet in person whenever you'd like to go over timeline, walkthrough the venue, or just chat anything wedding (or life) related. I'm here for you in every way!
