The Booking
Process

You've decided my work speaks to you, what's the next step? Go ahead and fill out my inquiry form so I can get to know you and your vision for your wedding day! This is the time to tell me any and all information/questions you may have. I will get back to you within 48 hours with my package options and a brief overview about the experience I offer. 

1. Inquire

2. Schedule a call

The next step of the process is getting on the phone, whether that be facetime, zoom, speaking over the phone, or just plain old email to discuss your specific needs. This part of the process is crucial because finding a photographer you can vibe with and feel comfortable around will make or break your wedding photography expereince.

3. Sign your contract

After we have gone over all of your questions, I will send over a proposal that will include a contract, service list, and invoice. You'll read through the contract and sign it at the bottom electronically. This is the first step in reserving me for your wedding date!

4. PLACE YOUR DEPOSIT

This deposit reserves your wedding date so that no one else books it. The deposit is 30% of your total package price and is non-refundable. Doing this sooner rather than later is necessary to ensure you have me reserved for your wedding day! If you sign the contract but don't place a deposit, your date is NOT reserved and you could lose out on having me photograph your wedding day.

5. Start planning!

After your contract is signed and deposit has been placed, we will begin planning your big day and ensure we get all of your desired photos! I will be there to give any advice or answer any questions you may have. I can also attend venue tours with you if you're hoping to find a place that works great for lighting or you just need a wedding professional there with you!

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Do you offer engagement sessions?

Yes, I offer engagement sessions as part of my wedding photography packages. These sessions are a great opportunity for us to get to know each other better and for you to get comfortable in front of the camera before your big day.

2. Can we customize our wedding photography package?

3. How far in advance should we book our wedding date?

I recommend booking your wedding date as early as possible to ensure availability, especially if your wedding date falls during peak wedding season. Generally, booking 6-12 months in advance is ideal, but don't hesitate to reach out even if your wedding is sooner.

8. How long will it take to receive our final edited photos?

The turnaround time for receiving your final edited photos depends on the package you choose and the number of photos taken. Typically, you can expect to receive your photos within 8-10 weeks after your wedding day but this may vary from wedding to wedding.
