FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 

WHERE ARE YOU BASED? DO YOU TRAVEL?

I am based out of Ohio (just a little south of Columbus) and out of Lexington, Kentucky. Also, HECK YES! I love to travel and tell love stories

.

ARE YOU LGTBQ+ FRIENDLY?

1000% yes.


TELL ME MORE ABOUT YOUR EDITING.

I individually edit every image you receive. Some of those images will be black and white but most will be in color. I don't Photoshop bodies or superimpose things into the shot that weren't there to begin with. However, I do take special care to fix any skin inconsistencies (blemishes, etc.) and remove any elements that may be distracting.


WHAT COMES IN A WEDDING COLLECTION WITH YOU?

This varies a lot. I have several collections ranging in coverage to with options to add on a second photographer and extra sessions. All couples who book with me receive unlimited consulting, a tips + tricks guide, vendor recommendations, wardrobe help (if needed), a custom timeline, and my personal cell number so you can text me with any other questions you may have. Aside from that you and your honey will receive a private online gallery for you to download, print, share, and swoon over the hundreds and hundreds of high-res, hand-edited images from your day.



HOW MANY IMAGES WILL WE RECEIVE WITH OUR SESSION OR WEDDING?

I always try and deliver quality over quantity.

For sessions, you can expect 50+ for your standard hour session.

For weddings, you can expect an average of 700-950+ total images, depending on how much coverage you receive. With that said, I won’t ever cap the number of images I give you if I feel like they all are contributing to your overall story.



WHO IS YOUR SECOND SHOOTER?

I am very particular with who I allow to be my second photographer. I have a list of 3-4 photographers that I work with, depending on their schedules. I’m a helluva solo-shooter when it comes down to it.



WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU CAN’T SHOW UP TO OUR WEDDING FOR SOME REASON (or we are facing a global pandemic and cannot have events)?

After 8+ years of weddings, I’ve never not shown up. But on the extremely off chance that I, for some god-forsaken reason am unable to attend your wedding after you’ve hired me, I’ll find a professional, as close to my style as possible (I am very well connected), who can shoot your day for me. I will still do the editing so that your final images are as close to what you see on this website as possible. If I fail to do all of that, then you will receive a refund of what you have paid me.

If we find ourselves, state-wide, country-wide, or on a global scale to be facing a pandemic or reason why large events need to be postponed/canceled, I will do everything in my power to make things right with you. First, there will be no fees to reschedule your date in my calendar. I would love if you asked me which dates are open so we can make sure I’m still available. If I am not available, I would have an associate photographer cover your wedding for me, with me still doing all the final edits. No matter how your plans change, I can still be your photographer. I would love to still be your photographer. If there is a full cancellation, a refund in the sum of the amount paid minus the retainer and services provided will be refunded in full. 



CAN YOU HOLD THE DATE FOR ME?

I typically book 12-18 months in advance. To be fair to all my couples, dates cannot be without a signed contract and retainer.

What if we are awkward and not comfortable in front of the camera?

Trust me that everyone says they feel awkward, but that’s where my job comes in! First off, it’s totally normal to feel awkward when you get your picture taken. And that’s exactly what I’m there for - to make you feel as comfortable as possible and for your session to be a blast. It will be so much fun! Trust me, by the end of our session, you won’t feel awkward at all. P.S. Check out “my work”, most people say they are awkward, but does anyone look awkward to you? Exactly!!

YOU'RE THE PHOTOGRAPHER FOR US! HOW DO WE RESERVE OUR WEDDING DATE?
