Do You Travel For Weddings and Engagements?

Yes I Do! I mainly travel for weddings. I’m always up for an adventure and there isn’t a single state I wouldn’t travel to! I’ve traveled from the Oregon Coast to Georgia and would go further! For shoots, I’m happy to travel shorter distances near Utah. For both Weddings & Shoots, I have travel fees and I’m always happy to try and make it to you.

We're Awkward And Don't Know How to Pose, Is That Okay?

Nine out of Ten times my couples haven’t had any professional photos taken of themselves. It’s part of my job to make you look the best and pose you to look like pros and make the photos feel natural. I mix in candid ideas and posed ones alike so you can have a good variety. I can attest to hundreds of couples I’ve worked with that have all said “they’re awkward” and left feeling confident and loving the photos they get back.

Wedding Days I capture the best of both worlds too. I do my best to capture you like we’re seeing a documentary of your wedding day. Always getting the intimate moments and not getting in the way. Make sure to get your best smiles and laughs. Plus we just do a little bit of posed photos of you two together at your venue and make sure you have some nice photos you can put in an album or on your wall!

How Does Payment and Your Contract Work?

I just do contracts for wedding days. It’s a standard agreement that includes a retainer/deposit payment that’s a small percentage of the full wedding cost. The full payment varies depending on the couple but typically full payment must be made within 30 days of the wedding. Anyone can pay earlier than that or split it up into 3 full payments as long as it is all paid for before the wedding day.

When Do You Recommend To Shoot?

I always recommend the last hour of sunlight or the first hour of sunlight of the day (golden hour). If we’re in the mountains it changes the time by 2 or more hours for sunset. Blue hour is great as well which is right before the sun rises or after it sets. Creating soft light that is very flattering. If we shoot indoors nearly any time of the day after sunrise or before sunset works great!

Do You Have A Second Shooter & How Much Do They Cost?

I have lots of local photographers I like to work with that I trust to be my second pair of eyes to help capture weddings with me! All photos are still edited by myself and I have it in my contract with second shooters they can use the photos they take for their portfolio but they won’t tag the couple in them. I value my Second Shooters a lot and make sure they’re paid well for their time. Pricing ranges from $70-$125 an hour that they’re booked depending on how long they’re needed.
