FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Hi there! I am here to answer all of your questions.
Here are some of the most frequently asked questions I get from clients:
DO YOU PHOTOGRAPH LARGER WEDDINGS?
YES! I offer several packages that cover weddings of any size. No matter how big or small your wedding day is, I would love to help tell your story!
DO YOU TRAVEL?
OF COURSE! I am down to go just about anywhere in the world! Visit the "Travel" page here on my website for more information.
HOW DO TRAVEL FEES WORK?
I will customize a Not To Exceed Fee to cover any necessary travel expenses: flights, lodging accommodations rental car and gas. The Not To Exceed Price varies depending on your destination and the current travel costs at the time of inquiry. This fee will be reevaluated at the time of booking.
HOW MANY PHOTOS WILL I RECEIVE?
On average, you can expect a minimum of 50 edited images per hour of shooting.
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO GET MY GALLERY?
Weddings/Elopements: I require 2-3 months to fully edit and process your gallery. But, don't worry I promise to send you lots of sneak peeks within 72 hours after your event!
Sessions: I require 2-3 weeks to edit your gallery. But, if you need photos any sooner than that, please be sure to let me know at the time of booking!
WHAT IF THERE IS BAD WEATHER?
Weather is something that is totally out of our control. I am more than happy to reschedule your session in the event of bad weather. We will communicate the days/hours leading up to your session and make the decision together!
If you cancel your session, I will be soooo sad but, I totally understand. I do require a non-refundable deposit, so you will not be able to get that portion of the payment back.
DO YOU HAVE A PAYMENT PLAN?
Absolutely! If this is something you would like to set up, I would love to do that for you! Just let me know during our communication when you book!
DO YOU OFFER DISCOUNTS?
On occasion, I will send discount codes to my email subscribers! If you are interested in receiving emails about sales, discounts and mini sessions fill out the form at the bottom of home page! Keep an eye out for those emails ;)
CAN I HAVE THE RAWS/UNEDITED IMAGES?
No.
I do not give any RAW images. Editing and processing your gallery is half the magic and trust me, you don't want the RAWs!
WHERE WILL OUR SESSION BE?
No need to worry about this at all! Upon booking, I will send you a Location Guide filled with amazing local areas that you can choose from. Of course, I am always down to explore new locations and I am open to any suggestions you may have as well!
WHAT DO WE WEAR TO OUR SESSION?
I have a very detailed What to Wear Guide that I will send over to you upon booking. It is filled with all my best tips and tricks on how to plan outfits for any kind of session you book!
CAN I BOOK A MINI SESSION?
Mini sessions are a special occasion around here!
I typically offer FIVE sets of mini sessions a year. These come as Boudoir Minis, Spring Minis, Summer Minis, Fall Minis and Holiday Minis. To learn more about how to book a mini session, be sure to subscribe to my email list! (Visit my home page + scroll to the bottom to subscribe.)
This is the best way to claim a mini session spot as soon as they drop. But, keep your eye out because they sell out FAST!
WHERE ARE YOU BASED OUT OF?
I am based in Huntsville, Alabama! But, my husband and I live full-time in our self converted Shuttle Bus. We spend a big part of the year on the road, traveling all over the country.
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN A PHOTOGRAPHER?
14 YEARS!
I know right?! Most people are shocked when they hear I have been doing photography that long. But, I started when I was 15 years old in 2010. I got my start by taking a film photography class while in High School. I learned how to shoot photos on actual rolls of film and develop them manually in a dark room! I completely fell in love with the art of it and not long after, I began shooting senior photos, prom, sports + even weddings!
DO YOU HELP IN THE PLANNING PROCESS?
YES I DO! I am a planner by HEART and I love helping my couples plan everything from where to shoot, what to wear, any research necessary, vendor recommendations, timeline assistance! I'm here for it all!
IS THIS YOUR FULL TIME JOB?
SURE IS!
In November of 2019 I took a huge leap of faith and quit my full time desk job to pursue my dreams as a Destination Elopement Photographer. It was scary at first, but I haven't looked back since! I absolutely love what I do and I am so grateful that I am able to live out my dreams!
