The experience
A calm presence. A personal approach.
You should remember your wedding as a day you lived, with photographs that carry you straight back to it.
Before the camera comes out
Good photographs start with a conversation.
Couples have often told me I felt like part of the celebration. That has always mattered to me. I want you to feel comfortable asking questions, telling me what you love, and simply being yourselves.
We’ll talk about how you want the photographs to feel, your family, your traditions, and any moments that need extra care. Then we’ll shape the photography around the day you are actually planning.

Here’s how it unfolds.
-
01
Tell me your plans.
We’ll confirm your date, talk about your venue and priorities, and choose the coverage that makes sense. You’ll receive a clear proposal before making any decision.
-
02
Get comfortable.
An engagement session gives us time to work together before the wedding. It’s included with Signature and Heirloom, and available with Coastal.
-
03
Make room for the day.
We’ll build a photography timeline with your planner or coordinator, plan your family groups, and account for portraits, travel and the light.
-
04
Enjoy your people.
I’ll guide the portraits and group photographs, then observe what unfolds. A second photographer, when included, adds another perspective and covers separate preparations.
-
05
Relive it, beautifully.
I carefully select and edit your photographs into a coherent story, delivered in a private online gallery with high-resolution downloads and personal print rights.
-
06
Make it part of home.
If you’d like an album, we’ll choose a format and design together. Heirloom includes a $750 album credit; any collection can add an album.
We feel awkward in front of a camera. Is that a problem?
Not at all. You don’t need to arrive knowing how to pose. I’ll give you clear, gentle direction and make space for conversation, movement, and the expressions that feel like you.
Will you photograph our family groups and traditions?
Yes. We’ll discuss your important family combinations, cultural or religious traditions, and must-have photographs in advance. Let me know about sensitive family situations so I can guide those moments thoughtfully.
Can you work in a dark church or reception?
My work includes indoor ceremonies and evening celebrations as well as beaches. I plan for changing light and bring professional cameras, lenses, and lighting. I respect venue restrictions, including ceremonies where flash is not permitted.
What if the weather changes?
We’ll discuss indoor or covered portrait options and coordinate with your venue and planner. A beach wedding’s backup plan should be agreed before the day. Weather-related changes to the booking are governed by your agreement.
Do you provide video or drone coverage?
My earlier work included video and aerial coverage, and some historical reviews mention those services. The current collections are photography-only. If you want a film or aerial work, ask for a separate proposal; staffing, venue rules, weather, and flight permissions determine what is possible.
How many images will we receive?
The final number depends on the hours, guest count, events, and pace of your day. I deliver a carefully selected story rather than a fixed quota of near-duplicate frames. Every delivered photograph is professionally edited.
