Common Questions

Everything you need to know about working together.

What is the booking process?

It all starts with an inquiry! After you reach out, we'll schedule a consultation call to discuss your vision, review packages, and make sure we're the perfect fit. Once you're ready, a signed contract and retainer deposit secure your date.

How much is the deposit and when is it due?

A non-refundable retainer of $500 (or 30% of your package total) is required to reserve your date. The remaining balance is due 30 days before your event.

How long until we receive our photos?

For weddings, your full gallery will be delivered within 6-8 weeks. Engagement and portrait sessions are typically delivered within 2-3 weeks. You'll also receive a sneak peek within 48 hours of your session!

Do you travel for weddings and sessions?

Absolutely! I'm based in the St. Louis area but love to travel. Destination weddings and elopements within the US are welcome with a travel fee. International travel is considered on a case-by-case basis.

What should we wear for our session?

I'll send you a detailed style guide after booking! In general, I recommend solid colors or subtle patterns that complement each other. Avoid large logos or overly busy prints. Layers and textures photograph beautifully.

Do you shoot in RAW? Can we get unedited photos?

I shoot exclusively in RAW for maximum quality. However, unedited images are not provided as each image is carefully edited to maintain a consistent, polished look that represents my artistic style.

What happens if it rains on our session day?

Rain can actually make for some of the most magical and romantic photos! That said, if the weather is truly unworkable, we'll reschedule to another date at no extra cost, subject to availability.

Can we create a custom package?

Of course! The packages listed are starting points. I'm happy to customize coverage, add-ons, and albums to create the perfect collection for your needs and budget. Just let me know in your inquiry.
