The level of direction I provide depends entirely on the experience you want for your wedding day! Some brides prefer a hands-off approach with only subtle guidance, while others want more structured posing throughout the day—and I can easily do both. My default style is mostly documentary, capturing moments naturally with gentle direction as needed, while stepping in with more hands-on posing during portraits. If you’re leaning toward a documentary-style experience, I offer downloadable guides and video chats before your wedding to help you feel confident and prepared, ensuring your vision comes to life effortlessly.

how do you balance posing and candids on a wedding day?

Frequently Asked

For photography, you’ll receive a preview gallery within a week of your wedding and your full gallery within 8-10 weeks. I personally retouch each image, and appreciate your patience with my artistry! Film photography also takes additional time for development and scanning.

For content creation, you'll receive your gallery next day. 

For Super 8, you'll receive your final digital video within 8-10 weeks. Since super 8 is an analog process, scanning and development makes it a slightly slower process. 

When will we receive our photos or content?

Frequently Asked

I am open to traveling anywhere and everywhere! After our consultation I will share a custom proposal with travel included in your package options. Your travel fee will be part of your package price, so you won't have to worry about invoices or added fees later. 

I live in Colorado Springs, Co but almost all of front range Colorado is "local" to me. Travel rates vary based on location, and I do offer discounted travel rates for Coastal Virginia (my family lives in Virginia Beach).

Are you open to travel? How does travel work?

Frequently Asked

Absolutely! Love is love, and every couple deserves to have their story told with care and authenticity. I proudly celebrate all love—regardless of religion, race, gender, sexuality, body type, or background. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you feel seen, valued, and completely yourself. If you have any specific needs or concerns, I’m always here to listen and ensure your experience is nothing short of amazing.

Are you inclusive?

Frequently Asked

All of my photography packages include film photography - it's a core part of my vision and artistic style. Due to films limited nature, with only 12-38 images per roll depending on the format, you can expect film to be a supplementary part of your gallery. I typically deliver 5-10% of your gallery in film. 

How many film photos will we get?

Frequently Asked

I recommend booking as soon as you have your date set! I take on a limited number of weddings per year to give each couple my full attention, so dates tend to fill up quickly.

How far in advance should we book?

Frequently Asked

To officially reserve your wedding date, I require a 40% retainer at the time of booking. This retainer ensures that your date is secured exclusively for you, meaning I turn away any other inquiries for that day. As a wedding photographer, I invest time and resources into planning your experience long before the big day arrives—whether it’s scheduling, consultations, or prepping for your unique vision. The retainer allows me to dedicate my full attention to your wedding and provides peace of mind that everything is set in motion. This payment is not an extra fee; it goes directly toward your total balance, with the remaining amount due closer to your wedding date.

What is the retainer fee?

Frequently Asked

I primarily work with a second photographer to ensure every moment is captured. It also allows more flexibility in full-day timelines. However, I also offer solo packages if it's more in line with your vision or budget.

Do you shoot alone or with a second photographer?

Frequently Asked

I do! I got my start working in the fashion industry, and more specifically retouching for Birchbox. I've learned all of the tricks in the trade. I tend to beauty retouch a small portion of your portraits prior to gallery delivery. If you'd like a few additional retouches done (blemishes for example), feel free to reach out and I'll be happy to help. 

I do not do major body modification when retouching unless specifically requested but do retouch blemishes and hair where possible.
