We approach your wedding day with the idea that we will be capturing you in the most genuine way. We want you to truly take in every moment with your friends and family. This is your wedding day and I do not want to interfere with all the magic that will naturally unfold
With that said, I have been to a million weddings and this is probably your first time being a bride/groom, so I will guide you through the day, letting you know whats next, where you need to be, and who you need to stand next to. And from there I let the moments happen in front me. All the awkward laughs, happy tears, loving eyes, all of it! We will make sure your dress is in place and the lighting is perfect while you take it all in.

Before you book your wedding date with me we need to make sure we are a good fit for each other! I want us to get to know one another a little bit so you can be sure that I am the perfect photographer for you. Its absolutely important that you like me! That may sound silly but you're going to be spending alllllll day with me on one of the most important days of your life. When we click, your photos will come out 100x more natural. Vs. someone you feel uncomfortable around. After you inquire with me we will set up a zoom call so we can chat and you can ask me all the questions!
Once you decide I'm a good fit for you I'm all yours!!! I will send you a contract and invoice for you to sign and make your first payment. There is a 30% retainer to secure your date upon signing. Everything is online in one email. You can use a credit or debit card. After that initial payment the remaining balance will be due at least 2 weeks before your wedding day. You can make payments throughout the year or make one payment on the due date. You also have the option to set up auto pay for your convenience!
First things first, your engagement session!! We will pick a date, a location you're vibing with, some super cute outfits and then we will go explore! I have a million locations in Southern California from Santa Barbra to San Diego. You can tell me what type of photos you are drawn to and then I'll send you some location options to choose from. If you have a specific location in mind we can do that too! We can keep things simple with a romantic beach session. Or you can get dressed up in a goodwill and have a fun date night with tequila and cowboys hats. The sky is the limit! I will absolutely help with styling outfits for you if you need some help in that area.
You can email me any day and night with questions! I have been to a million weddings and I am happy to give any advise you may need. A few months before your wedding we will do a zoom call to talk about your day of timeline. I want to make sure we are able to get all the photos that are important to you. I will then create a photo timeline that you can give to your coordinator so she can make the master timeline.
I don't want you to worry about a thing!! My hope for you is that you can remain present while my team and I work with the coordinator to ensure the day goes perfect and smooth. I will make sure your family and your wedding party know exactly where to be and when in an organized fashion. 1. So that everything goes off without a hitch. 2. So that you get the photos of your dreams.
After your wedding day I will send you some sneak peeks within 1 week. I try my very best to get them to you within 48 hours so you can post on social media and share with your friends/family. Sometimes life happens and I cannot get them to you that soon but I guarantee 50+ photos within 1 week. 8-10 weeks after your big day I will send you an email with your full wedding gallery. If you are doing both photo + video I will also share a dropbox link to your 3 edited wedding videos. A few weeks later I will mail you a hard drive with your edited wedding photos, HD + 4K versions of your edited wedding videos, and all the RAW wedding video footage. I will keep all your files in my storage for 6 months. 6 months after your wedding day everything will be deleted from my storage systems. Upon delivery I will send you instructions for keeping your photos+videos safe for eternity!
