FAQs
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I love to meet up with new clients over lunch or coffee to get to know them and understand the vision for their wedding day. The goal of my work is to produce images that reflect the personalities of each couple. I also provide timeline consultation for every wedding to help ensure that your wedding day is as seamless and stress-free as possible. Prior to the wedding, I check in to confirm timelines/details and assist with any questions before the big day. Once the wedding day arrives, all the fun happens.
- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Choosing a photographer really comes down to 4 things. It's sort of like dating lol. 1. Outside of your fiancé/fiancée, your photographer will be the closest person to you on your wedding day. They will get to know your family/friends and take part in some of the most personal moments of your wedding. I would recommend choosing someone you like, with a personality that fits well within the environment that they'll be working. 2. Find someone who has adequate experience to cover each aspect of the wedding day in the most professional/artistic way possible. Techniques used for outdoor ceremonies are drastically different from indoor ceremonies. Techniques used for receptions are also drastically different from any other part of the day. I would recommend asking for a full wedding from your photographer's portfolio, so that you understand what quality of work to expect from them. Most photographers can produce a handful of amazing images from a wedding, but full day coverage will be important to see. 3. Whatever you decide, I highly recommend choosing a local photographer versus a large/nationwide company that outsources weddings to photographers locally. In most instances you can actually hire the same photographers directly. Going with a local photographer who you can meet beforehand, build trust with and develop familiarity with is an invaluable asset on your wedding day. Also, the attention to detail, commitment, and quality of an experienced local photographer is incomparable to a large operation that outsources the majority of their functions (including editing). 4. Find a photographer whose style you love. The beauty of the industry is that there are so many different photographers with different creative visions. Not every photographer will be the right match. My style won't resonate with everyone I meet, but if it does, I'd be happy to meet with you!
