Frequently Asked Questions

I’m sure you have tons of questions, let me help you out and alleviate some concerns you may have.

Here are a few common questions that I get asked about. If you don’t see a question below, don’t hesitate to reach out!

Where are you based out of, and are you available for travel?

I live in Roseville, just 30 minutes north of Sacramento, Ca. I moved out here with my family in 2014, and we loved it since. We’re surrounded with such amazing landscapes, lots to do and see. California is one of the most geographically diverse states from the iconic Golden Gate Bridge and stunning redwood trees to the picturesque beaches and rugged desert. I’m so lucky to be living and thriving in the Golden state. However, I do love seeing and exploring other places. I’m definitely available for travel.

Do you shoot destination weddings and what are the costs?

Absolutely, I’m all for it. Let’s plan it out early so we can get the best deals. Unlike most photographer who have set travel prices and tack on mileage fees, getting me to your wedding (travel + transportation), sleeping arrangements (lodging) is all you have to pay for, I’ll cover the rest! To save us even more money, I’m open to crashing on your sofa and get to know you both a little better, sharing an airbnb, or even bunking with your family.

How many images will I receive?

These are your memories, and so these are your photos! I don’t put a cap on the amount of images I give. I’m not like other photographers who will withhold on to your photos and charge you extra, I just won’t do that. Each package that I offer is different and will vary in the amount of images I’ll deliver. You’ll receive all your edited images in a custom online gallery for you to view, download and share with family and friends.

What if the weather is bad?

Sometimes you have to stand out in the cold to appreciate the beauty of a snowflake. If it’s not safe for us to be out, and will endanger our safety and ruin my gear, we can totally reschedule. Other than that, let’s embrace it. A lot of the best photos come from the worst weather conditions

What kind of gear do you use?

I typically carry both my Canon EOS 5D Mark IV, Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM Lens, Canon 50MM 1.2L, ProFoto A1 FLASH, Vinta Camera bag, Holdfast harness, Canon battery grip, and LEXAR + SD CARDS

Do you help with planning?

I’ve been to so many weddings and understand what it takes to plan and organize one, it also helps that I’m connected to many vendors. If you’re searching for recommendations, need help with choosing the right florist or even creating a timeline, let me know and I’ll do what I can to help you make your day less stressful.

Do you only shoot weddings & engagements?

I specialize in weddings and engagements, however I love being able to create beautiful work with my clients and continuing their love story pass their wedding day. I’ve done maternity session for my brides, which transitioned into capturing fun family photos. It’s an endless journey, and I’m so happy you let me get to be part of it.

Do you offer payment plans?

My payment schedule is pretty simple. It’s 50% to secure your date. The remaining 50% is due 30 days before your wedding, 2 weeks before a shoot (other than wedding). If you’d like to make it more affordable, let me know and I can work with you in creating a custom payment plan.

What if we reschedule or cancel our wedding?

If a deposit has already been made, it is legally non refundable. Rescheduling a date will result in a new deposit for securing a new date.

Will there be a second shooter?

The more the merrier, right! I usually always bring a second shooter. This helps me get angles or different perspectives that I wouldn't be able to capture. I also like to make sure that the bride and groom has their own photographer during wedding preparations.

Do I have to order prints through you?

I make it super easy and affordable to order prints. I partnered up with a film lab that produces quality prints for those amazing photos that we just took.

Can I extend the session the day of?

Yes, of course! I understand that weddings never go as planned, and so many things happen that pushes our timeline. If you need me to stay a little longer, I'm there!!!
