The Person Behind The Camera
Let me make this process seamless for you..
Photography, for me, has always been about holding on to the moments that matter most. The ones that slip by faster than we'd like. It's about preserving the fleeting moments we never want to lose. Whether it's your wedding day, a maternity session, or just celebrating this chapter of your life, I want to give you images that feel true to you and bring you back to exactly how it felt. These aren't just photos; they're reminders of your story, your people, and your love- right now, exactly as it is.
What to Expect:
01. Inquire & Connect
Fill out my inquiry form, and we'll hop on a quick call to connect. This is where I learn your vision and share location or timeline suggestions to make everything flow beautifully.
02. Lock It In
Once you've chosen the package that feels right, I'll send over your contract and invoice. After that's signed, you're officially booked! *Cue the happy dance!*
03. The Session/ Wedding Day
I'll guide you with light prompts and posing, but my favorite photos are the natural, in-between moments. Think relaxed, comfortable, fun and personal to you.
04. The Heart Behind It All
My love for photography comes from cherishing fleeting moments with family. Photos are more than images; they're heirlooms you'll look back on for a lifetime. That's why I focus on capturing not just how your day looks, but how it feels.
FAQ
How far in advance should we book?
I recommend booking your wedding photographer as soon as you have your date confirmed, ideally 9-12 months in advance, especially for weekends. Destination and elopement weddings may require additional lead time to secure travel and logistics.
How many hours of coverage do you recommend?
For weddings, most couples choose 8-10 hours to cover their day from getting ready through the reception. Smaller weddings or half-day celebrations can be beautifully captured with 6 hours. We'll work together to plan the timeline so every key moment is covered.
Will we receive every photo, including RAW files?
In short, no. I select and carefully edit the best images from your session or wedding to ensure consistent quality and storytelling. *RAW files are not included* as they are unedited and not reflective of the polished images I deliver. You'll receive a beautiful, curated gallery of high-resolution images ready for printing and sharing.
Can we bring pets or include special items?
Yes absolutely. I love capturing couples with pets, family heirlooms, or meaningful props. Just let me know in advance so we can plan accordingly.
What kind of add-ons do you offer?
My wedding packages are built to cover everything you'll need for your day, with options for 6,8 or 10 hours of coverage. On top of that, you can customize your package with beautiful heirloom albums, engagement sessions, prints and a second shooter for even more coverage. These add-ons are optional, but they're a great way to make your experience extra special and ensure your memories are preserved for years to come.
Do you travel for destination weddings or elopements?
Absolutely! I love capturing weddings and elopements anywhere your love story takes place, whether it's on the East End of Long Island or a destination location. Travel fees may apply depending on distance and logistics.
How and when will I receive my photos?
I email you access to your own private online gallery with high resolution images. From there you can download right to your phone/ computer, save & share with your family!
Wedding clients can expect their full gallery delivered within 6-10 weeks.
Destination weddings may have a slightly linger timeline depending on travel and editing logistics.
Portrait/engagement session clients can expect their full gallery within 2-4 weeks.
What happens if the weather is bad?
No worries! Weather can be unpredictable but rain can create gorgeous, moody portraits. We'll work together to adjust locations or timelines so your day stays stress-free.
Do you offer a payment plan or deposit?
Yes! A signed contract and deposit secure your date, and the remaining balance can be split into a manageable payment plan leading up to your wedding day or session. With the final payment due the week of your booked date. I aim to make the booking process as stress-free as possible.
