Wonderful! To secure your date we will begin by putting together an agreement with your chosen collection. Once the agreement is singed and completed with a 30% retainer, your date(s) will be reserved. 

WE'd love to move forward, what's next?

If possible! First looks allow us to capture portraits before the ceremony, which frees up time between your ceremony and reception and allows your guests to wait the shortest amount of time possible before enjoying the reception. However, I strongly hold that your wedding day should be focused on you and your priorities, and I happily accommodate weddings that do not incorporate first looks. If you’re still undecided, my wedding guide gives more details about planning your first look and even gives potential timelines to show what a day could look like with or without a first look.

DO YOU RECOMMEND A BRIDE AND GROOM FIRST LOOK?

Yes, a nonrefundable 30% retainer fee is required to book your wedding date. This will be paid through your client portal and is due with the signed contract. The remainder will be separated into two separate 35% payments, with the second two payments due six months and one month before your wedding date.

IS THERE A DEPOSIT DUE TO BOOK?

There are no additional travel fees that you can expect. However, if there are any permits required for shooting at your desired location, the client will pay those.

IS THERE A TRAVEL EXPENSE?

Yes! I always set up a meeting with my brides 2-3 weeks prior to the wedding to iron out all of the last-minute details. However, I am happy to meet other times as well to ensure my brides feel entirely comfortable and well taken care of!

WILL WE MEET TOGETHER BEFORE THE WEDDING DAY?

It varies from wedding to wedding and session to session, but on average I usually end up delivering around 75-100 images per hour of shooting! So for a 10-hour wedding day, you'll get somewhere between 650-1000+ images. I'll never leave a good photo out just to hit a certain number and only eliminate ones that are repeats, have closed eyes, etc.

HOW MANY FINAL IMAGES WILL WE GET?

Of course! Clients are encouraged to explore the route as no two weddings are the same. Tailored proposals are available upon request. Please let us know if we can put together a custom collection for you!

Are custom collections available?

Engagement sessions take 2-3 weeks, and weddings take 8-12 weeks, depending on the amount of photos being delivered. I try to get them back to you as soon as possible while making sure I meet the needs of every image. You will receive a preview gallery 72 hours after your wedding day!

WHAT IS YOUR TURNAROUND TIME?

My favorite question! Anywhere with a beach, mountains, land, air - I’m there! One of the best parts about living in Atlanta is that there is a massive international airport right at my doorstep. Finding flights for work is a piece of cake. If you’re planning a destination wedding, we can jump on a call and talk more about the details. I'll then create an invoice for you based on our conversation.

DO YOU TRAVEL FOR DESTINATION WEDDINGS?

For destination weddings, there is a travel fee added to the cost of the package to cover my travel time, flights, stay, food and any transportation such as uber or rental cars.  I also get there a day or two before the wedding to scout locations for us to use. Tell me where you are going and I'll do research to give you a price estimate based off that area. Anything above that estimate I will cover the cost personally.
