Frequently Asked Questions

Heck YES I will! Thatβs one of my favorite parts of the job! Iβm here to make sure we establish a connection and feel like good friends hanging out together. I really feel this is key to getting the best photos. Part of my job and expertise is knowing body language and answers to questions like βWhere should I put my hands?β Iβm an expert at subtle cues to get your natural laughs and can promise that, before you know it, youβll be posing as if Iβm not even there! Thatβs where I sneak in and grab those in-between, sentimental moments that yβall love so much!

Iβd love to meet you before the big day too! The best way for us to meet is to book an engagement session together. Itβs such a fun way to get to know each other and see how we work together in front of AND behind the camera. Itβs also a great icebreaker, meaning youβll already be prepared for the big day!

Iβd describe my style like a custom formula: a little bit classic/clean, throw in some joy/fun, add really great golden light, add a touch of edge/mood, all while keeping the colors as you see it - true to life!

Professionally, I have been documenting weddings since 2016, but my experience goes well beyond! I photographed my very first wedding in 2008!
-
Yes! I am fully insured, and in the event that your venue asks for a copy or proof of insurance, I am more than happy to provide that for them!

Great question! Itβs extremely rare, but if I am physically unable to be there for your day, my second photographer that is scheduled will likely take the position as lead photographer and I will do all that I can to hire a replacement second. My second photographers are all seasoned professionals that Iβve had the pleasure to work with. I trust they will rock it if the occurrence were to ever take place! Everything will still be under my brand and all communication will be with me, I just won't physically be there (and it will kill me NOT to be, trust me. I love being a part of your day!)
-
Yes! I accept a 30% non-refundable retainer to hold your date with me. After that, we will schedule your payments 6 months, 3 months, and 30 days before the big day!
-
Yes, Iβm always up for a little adventure! I typically travel within a 1 to 2-hour drive from Bucks Co., PA without a travel fee. In the event that youβre hosting your wedding outside of that travel radius and still want to hire me as your photographer, we can totally discuss options to make it happen! (travel fees apply)

Yes!! Part of my growing business the last several years has been capturing special moments for wonderful families and small businesses! I still offer lifestyle sessions and absolutely LOVE being able to photograph keepsake memories after the βI Doβsβ take place (hint hint.. ) Though my availability for such sessions is incredibly limited, I still offer specialized mini sessions a couple times a year! Feel free to reach out through my contact form - Iβm happy to brainstorm session ideas together!
