We will be checking in with you all along the way at 6 months, 3 months and 1 month out. You will receive a short questionnaire 3 months before your wedding day. Around 1 month out we will have a phone call meeting to go over your wedding day timeline and where your portrait sessions fit in with your day.

How many weddings are you taking on in a year?
We only take on 30 weddings/elopements a year. That way, we can invest in everything that we do. That way, we can be there for our clients. That way, we have enough time for self-care, mental health days and quality time with our family so when we show up, we really show up.
How many photos will we get?
We average around 50-100 finals per hour. However, each wedding/session is unique and we always make sure to capture plenty of photos for each moment. We are story tellers so we are going to have enough curated photos to tell your complete story from beginning to end, all of it.
Do you deliver raw photos?
We don’t ever give out RAW photos. Every photo you receive will be edited to ensure consistency in colors, brightness and mood.
What is your turn around time?
For sessions, our promise is 2-3 weeks. For elopements and weddings, our promise is 3-8 weeks.
We can’t promise anything shorter because we invest so much time into creating GIFs, double exposures and creative art for our clients. Honestly, you have the rest of your life to look at these photos, so we want to make sure every single photo we deliver is something we are proud of. We want to make sure you get the best of us and not something we have to rush in order to meet some crazy fast deadline.
Do you photoshop your clients?
Our photography is about celebrating love and authenticity. We want you to know that you are beautiful because we are all unique and different and important. We will never photoshop anything that is part of your identity. We won’t photoshop to alter what is real and true for you. However, we do adjust the tonality to correct for any lighting issues, we correct the color and we put a look on them. We will photoshop out temporary blemishes like bruises and acne, any clothing tags or strange shapes like a huge phone in your pocket and anything distracting in the background, like tourists. And of course, we will always ask you about your favorite side so we can pose you in a way you feel is more flattering.
