Not at all. Honestly, most of my couples feel this way going in. You don’t need to know how to pose or perform—I’m not expecting that from you. My approach is very natural and low-pressure. I’ll gently guide you when needed, but more than anything, I’m paying attention to how you naturally interact. The way you laugh together, the way you reach for each other without thinking—that’s where the magic is. You don’t need to be “good in front of the camera.” You just need to be yourselves.

I focus heavily on candid, in-between moments, but I also understand the importance of having those timeless, frame-worthy images. I’ll step in with direction when needed—especially during portraits or family photos—but I keep it simple and natural. Nothing stiff or overly posed. Think of it more as gentle prompting than posing, so your photos still feel like you.

You can expect a generous, fully curated gallery—typically 400+ images for a half day and 700+ for a full day. I deliver sneak peeks within 48 hours so you have something to relive right away, and your full gallery is delivered within one month. I don’t rush the process, but I also won’t leave you waiting endlessly.

Weddings rarely go perfectly according to plan—and that’s okay. I come into your day prepared and flexible. If timelines shift or weather changes, I’ll calmly adjust and guide where needed so you’re not carrying that stress. Some of the most meaningful moments happen in the unexpected, and I know how to work within that without it feeling chaotic.

Of course. If there are moments or people that are especially important to you, I want to know. I’ll always prioritize what matters most to you. At the same time, I don’t work off a strict shot list all day—I stay present so I can capture moments as they naturally happen, not just what’s pre-planned.

I’m not here to create a version of your wedding that looks perfect for photos—I’m here to preserve what was real. My approach is rooted in observation more than direction. I pay attention to the quiet moments, the emotions, the things you didn’t even realize were happening. The end result is a gallery that feels honest and true to your day—not staged or forced.

Yes, absolutely. I don’t expect you to figure that out on your own. I’ll help you build a photography timeline that feels realistic and allows space to actually enjoy your day. If you have a planner or coordinator, I’m more than happy to work alongside them as well—we’ll collaborate to make sure everything flows smoothly and nothing feels rushed or chaotic. My goal is to create a rhythm to your day where you can be fully present, not constantly being pulled in different directions.

Once you’re ready, I’ll send over a contract and invoice to secure your date. A signed contract and retainer officially reserves your spot on my calendar. After that, I’m here for you throughout the entire process—whether it’s timeline questions, vendor recommendations, or anything in between.

Yes—I’m always open to travel. Travel is already included in my pricing, so there are no hidden fees or surprises. Whether your wedding is local or a little further away, I’m there. Just let me know, and I will send you my Destination Wedding Info + Pricing Guide!
