So you like what you see and would like to chat further? I would love to meet you, hear about your vision, and know your love story. It's always a good idea to make sure you connect with your wedding vendors, since they play such a huge part of your special day. It's important for you to get to know me as much as I get to know you. For our initial conversation, we would have a brief and casual chat over a virtual meeting to see if we're a good fit.

If your collection includes an engagement session, I will get in touch to start planning it. An engagement session allows you to get comfortable in front of the camera, they also give you the opportunity to showcase your personalities in a more casual setting that is significant to the two of you. While they’re great for save-the-dates, I've taken engagement photos anywhere from 18 months in advance to a few days before the wedding.

This is the fun part! Leading up to the wedding, I'll collaborate with your planner or yourself to make sure your priorities are honored. We'll draft out the timeline of events, and discuss the details in depth to make sure it feels good. Here, we'll also discuss your shot list and the formal portraits of the day. We'll review the timeline and discuss any concerns well in advance of the day.

The day has finally come. All of your details and timeline are finalized, and it's time to celebrate your big day! Your only job is to soak it all in, and let your vendors take care of the rest. I'll arrive on-site to greet you, and begin orchestrating picture-perfect moments from the getting ready photos to the partying on the dance floor. My number one advice is to take pauses throughout the day, and just take every moment in.
