Frequently Asked Questions
“Do we receive the unedited/“RAW” images?”
I do not provide any of the RAW images. This is because I want to make sure you have the very best photos from your session. Which excludes all duplicates and unusable blurry images. Lastly, because I work hard to edit them to my style, for future clients, I want to make sure they see my very best work rather than anything apart from my style or “brand.”
“Where are you based? And do you travel?”
I'm based in Plymouth, IN and yes, I love to travel!
If your session or wedding is outside of a 25 mile radius then I do charge for travel. My travel rates depend on the location and I am happy to provide an estimated quote before you book.
“How do you photograph weddings?”
I love being by your side to help you before and on your wedding day. I count it an honor to be a part and to be able to capture the intimate and most special parts of your day.
I request a photo list from each bride to help me focus on what shots are important to you.
On your wedding day, I want to capture the emotions, the calm and the crazy, the moments, and all of the details that make your wedding unique.
What is your process? Start to Finish?
1. You reach out about an important time in your life that you'd like for me to capture!
2. We talk about your vision, a location, and date and then I send you a contract to finalize your booking.
3. We have a blast during your session and I speed home to get you some sneak peeks!
4. A week or two later you get an email from me linked with your personalized gallery!
5. Then the link guides you through the viewing and downloading process!
6. After that you (hopefully) LOVE your images and want to post them on social media and tag me so I can see!
That’s a summarized version of the process but if you have any more detailed questions, feel free to send me a message!
“What should I wear?!”
I get this question a lot!
DO - Pick a palette of 2-4 colors to begin. Think in terms of tones: blue tones, earth tones, neutrals, pastels, etc.
DON’T - Use large patterns, or have multiple individuals in patterned pieces. Instead shoot for TEXTURES! Ones that will give photos some contrast such as lace, corduroy, denim, and knits.
“When can I expect to receive my gallery link?”
I have sneak peeks (usually 3-5 images) sent to you within 48 hours. Most sessions take about 2-3 weeks (6-8 maximum) to edit and get a gallery set up. It all depends on the season and type of session you choose. When your gallery is finished you will receive a link, through which you can access and download all of your images.
