Frequently Asked Questions
Where are you based and do you travel for shoots?
I am located in Central California, an area I love for its eclectic mix of farms, cities, mountains, rivers, and agriculture, providing perfect backdrops for photography. Additionally, I travel for an extra fee depending on the situation.
How would you describe your photography style?
The style I have adopted and maintained through various trends is dark and colorful. I enjoy urban photography that emphasizes shadows. While I can adapt to your preferences, I am confident in my style, which is likely why you are reaching out to me.
Do you offer engagement or pre-wedding shoots?
Yes! Engagement and pre-wedding sessions are a beautiful way to get comfortable in front of the camera and capture your love story before the big day.
How many photos will we receive, and delivered?
This depends on the package you feel suits your needs. The mini-package has 10 images, the Full has 20 and the Signature has 40 images. These aren't locked in and I've have many clients offer to pay for just a few more sometimes.
How far in advance should we book you?
Weddings and elopements are often booked 6–12 months in advance. For smaller sessions, a few weeks’ notice is usually enough, but the sooner, the better.
Do you offer custom packages?
Absolutely. Every love story is unique, every senior is their own personality, every family has its own legacy, so I’m happy to tailor a package that fits your needs and vision.
