Introductory Call

After receiving the wedding package offerings, I would love to schedule an introductory call to get to know you and your partner as well as understand a little bit more about yourselves! During this call, I aim to provide couples with a warm and welcoming experience as they embark on their wedding journey. On the call, I take the time to understand the unique vision and personal preferences envisioned for the big day. We discuss any questions or concerns you might have, shot list, first look preferences, style, and help determine a package that suits your needs best.

Taking engagement photos is such an exciting and joyful experience. As a photographer , I love capturing the unique love and connection between each couple. From the moment I meet the engaged couple, I work to create a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere, allowing their genuine personalities to shine through. Whether we're in a picturesque park, a charming urban setting, or a meaningful location special to the couple, the engagement session is a chance for them to showcase their love story. From cozy cuddles and stolen glances to playful laughter and intimate moments, I strive to capture the essence of their relationship in every frame. These photos are not only cherished memories but also a beautiful preview of the magic that their wedding day will hold. Please note that some packages include an engagement session, while others it can be added on. This includes Bridal portraits as well.

This questionnaire includes vendor details, shot list, editing requests, every little detail to ensure your day goes perfectly!


Timeline Assistance

Having worked in weddings for many years, I understand the importance of creating a seamless and well-planned wedding photography timeline. I know that a well-thought-out timeline is crucial to capture every precious moment of your special day. I will work closely with you and your wedding planner to create a detailed schedule that ensures we are present for all the key moments, from getting ready to the emotional ceremony, and the joyous reception. We take into account factors such as lighting, location, and season to optimize the timing for those stunning outdoor shots. Our meticulous planning guarantees that you can relax and enjoy your wedding day, knowing that every magical memory will be artistically documented and that you are only spending your wedding day doing things that YOU want to be doing.

Before sending the final image gallery, you will receive a sneak peek gallery with a few edited images because who wants to wait until the final gallery to see snippets of your wedding day!? Once the final gallery has been edited (around 8 weeks) I will send over an online gallery where you are welcome to download and share any images from your wedding day!

Capture Your Memories in Perfect Frames with the Right Photographer


When it comes to preserving the cherished moments of our lives, there is no room for compromise. Choosing the right photographer can make all the difference in capturing the essence and emotions of your wedding. As a photographer I understand the significance of preserving your memories in perfect frames. I possesses not only technical expertise but also an artistic eye and a keen understanding of your unique vision. By selecting the right photographer, you can ensure that every smile, tear, and laughter will be skillfully documented, transforming those fleeting moments into lifelong treasures. Whether it's a wedding, a family portrait, or a special event, entrusting your memories to the right photographer guarantees that your story will be told with the utmost passion and professionalism.

On the wedding day itself, I am committed to documenting the entire event, from getting ready to the grand exit, immersing myself in each moment. By dedicating substantial time with the couple, I ensure they have an enjoyable, stress-free experience, resulting in photographs that beautifully encapsulate their love story and create cherished memories for years to come.

When it comes to choosing a photographer, it is crucial to find someone with whom you connect with. Photography is not just about capturing images; it is about capturing emotions, stories, and moments frozen in time. A photographer who understands your vision, personality, and style will be able to translate your ideas into stunning visuals. Chemistry and rapport between you and your photographer play a significant role in creating a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere during the shoot, allowing for genuine and authentic expressions. When you connect with your photographer, the entire creative process becomes enjoyable and collaborative, resulting in photographs that truly reflect your essence. So, whether it is a wedding celebration or a personal portrait session, choosing a photographer who you connect with with is of utmost importance for a memorable and heartwarming experience.

 

FAQ

Below is a list of frequently asked questions, if you have any others, please don’t hesitate to ask

  • Shot list?- leading up to the wedding I will send over an extensive questionnaire asking for all of the details of your wedding day. This is to ensure that I have all of the information I need to make the day as seamless as possible for y'all. included in this questionnaire is a full shot list of the most important photos that you would like me to capture along with the combinations for any formal family photos. For the shot list, I also ask that you let me know if there are any photos you would like to omit from your wedding day (ie: individual bridesmaids photos, putting on dress, dancing photos, first look etc.) This is to ensure your wedding day time is being spent doing only what YOU want. 

  • What is your image backup process?- I shoot with only dual slot cameras meaning that I shoot with two different memory cards just in case anything was to happen to one card, I will always have a backup! After the wedding, I will immediately back up images to a hard-drive as well and import the images on to my computer & Adobe. I understand that these photos are extremely important and want to make sure that they are as safe as can be.

  • What is your photography background? After graduating with a photography degree from SCAD I moved to San Francisco to work in photography full time. While in SF I was the Senior photographer for The RealReal for four years as well as shooting for brands such as Everlane, Lululemon, Outdoorvoices, Babylist, Vogue X Facebook, and more. On weekends I photographed weddings as a wedding photographer for ComePlum and Ethical Weddings and am now shooting full time weddings in Texas! 

  • Watermarks- There will be NO watermarks on any of the images when they are delivered to you. You will be receiving all of the best edited images from your day!

  • Timeline- I will be there throughout your entire wedding planning process whenever you need my help. this includes timeline planning. I will coordinate with your wedding planner to ensure that we have the best timeline for you depending on lighting and what images you are wanting.

  • Sunset photos- As a lover of light, I absolutely love taking the Bride and Groom out for some sunset portraits. this will be worked in to your wedding day timeline and is completely optional. 

  • Posting images- You will have full print and posting rights to your images so you can post them wherever you would like and print them as you wish!

  • How long will the gallery link remain- the gallery link will remain for 30+ days. You can access the link with your email and share it with whoever you like and they are also invited to view, favorite, and download as many images. For example, you can share the link with your family and they will have access to all of the images and can download any that they would like.

  • APP- Included in the online gallery is also a personalized app that can be sent to you to download. This app will store all of your images and can live on your Home Screen where you can access them whenever and will not expire. While this is available, it is complimentary and sent to you by request.

  • Do you offer a second shooter? Yes, I can add a second shooter to any of the wedding day packages. However please note that this is an additional charge except for the Charlotte York Package (10 hr). While I am confident in myself shooting solo, I still would recommend adding a second shooter to your wedding package if it is not already included. Second shooters come in hand if you are wanting getting ready images of both bride and groom getting ready, different perspectives of your entire wedding day including ceremony angles and first looks. I would also recommend a second shooter if you are wanting images of your cocktail hour since I will be with y'all shooting formal family portraits and any other post ceremony photos. This also ensures that you have another perspective of your entire wedding day.

  • What kind of photos will you be capturing? I will be photographing a little bit of everything! meaning posed, candid, documentary, stylized and traditional images. However this also depends on your own requests and what you personally will be wanting for your wedding day. 

  • What is your editing process like? - I will upload all of the wedding day images and cull the images  (remove any that might be a duplicate, unflattering, blinking, light tests, etc.). After culling I will personally edit and retouch all images. In my wedding day questionnaire, you will find a question for any editing requests depending on your own personal style ie: if you prefer for more light and airy, more natural lighting, skin tone requests etc. You will also receive select black and white images in your final wedding gallery if you would like.

  • How long will it take to edit? -After the date, I will send a Sneak Peek of some selected edited images (anywhere from 15-30 images) from your wedding day. As for your final gallery, I try to make sure that you receive your full wedding gallery around 8 weeks after your wedding date. this varies depending on wedding and how much retouching is being done ie: if a venue has a ton of signage that is not part of your wedding and I go in to remove any unnecessary background flaws, trash, graffiti, etc. 

  • Will you shoot details and flat-lay images? - Yes, I love shooting details and flat lays and will bring along a styling mat with me to ensure we get those details done nicely. Details are a crucial part of telling your story. You have put so much heart and soul in to this wedding and I want to make sure you get everything captured 

  • Do you have any travel fees?- This depends on location. At this time, I do not require travel fees for any San Antonio and Austin surrounding areas. This includes Boerne, Austin, Fredericksburg, Georgetown, Lockhart, and Dripping Springs.

  • Will you coordinate with our coordinator? - Yes, Absolutley! In my questionnaire, I ask for all of your vendor information including your coordinator/planner. Leading up to the wedding, I will be in contact with them discussing timeline and anything else that might come up.

  • Do you offer bridals- Yes! I highly recommend bridal portraits prior to the wedding day. This allows you to see have more time on your wedding day with your loved ones as well as your new husband! If you can, I would recommend planning your hair and makeup trial the same day as your Bridals to see how well your hair and makeup holds up as well as how it photographs. Most venues include in their contract a day to book bridals at the venue! 

  • How involved are you with the wedding planning?- I am as involved as you would like me to be with your wedding! I completely understand how difficult it can be to plan a wedding and am here whenever you need me. Wether you need help finding some last minute wedding decorations, flower recs, vendor recommendations, wedding ideas, mood-board creation, venue walkthrough, someone to vent to, anything at all, I'm here for you!

    YES! I Absolutley do photograph destination weddings and love to travel. I offer a discount on most destinations and depending on location and venue, You only have to pay for travel! (what-a-deal!)

  • Do you photograph rehearsal dinners?

    Yes, I do offer rehearsal dinner coverage. This can be added on to any package. Although keep in mind, I do not offer a second shooter for rehearsal dinners, and it depends on location.
