Q: Are you available on my wedding day?
A: Booking in advance as soon as possible is the best way to ensure we are available on the day you need. There is a 20% non-refundable deposit to hold your date. If you also plan on having your wedding during busy and popular times of the year, a good idea is to book 12-18 months early! For questions or to make your appointment,

Q: When do we shoot the engagement session?
A: The engagement session takes place a few months before the wedding where the three of us meet up and photograph you and your fiancé in a setting of your choosing. Not only is this a fun time for us all, but it’s also a great time to get comfortable with me as your photographer and get to know me personally and with regards to my photographic style. If you want to, after the wedding as well, can book a “Trash the Dress” session as well.

Q: What are your policies regarding the DVD of the photos that I will get?
A: Each DVD that I create for you will include three different folders. The first folder includes all of your raw files. That is every photo that we take during your day. The second folder is the final proofs, where I take the majority of the raw files, and color correct, crop, enhance and place up on a password protected website for proofing. The third folder includes resized, watermarked photos for online sharing (ie. Facebook, Myspace, personal blogs) for sharing.
Each package includes a license to print out your digital photos at a resolution up to 8×10. We recommend that any larger than that having us print them with professional high quality lab printers.

Q: Is it important to meet the photographer prior to my decision to hire a photographer?
A: Given technology today, it is tempting to look for and hook a photographer over the internet and telephone. We believe that in meeting together that we can give you our full detailed attention and you can learn who we are as both a photographer and a friend. Our main goal if you hire us is to feel comfortable with us! We will spend the whole of the day with you and that is why a personal pre-wedding meeting is necessary. With the Extended package and Ultimate packages as well, we offer complimentary engagement photos so you can feel even more comfortable with our style and personalities!

Q: So is this your full time gig?
A: At this time no. Which is why my prices are reasonable. Full time photographers rely on their packages to be their main source of income, you will see that reflected in their packages/prices. I do have a day job to take care of insurance for my family, however I do have the flexibility to take time off if your wedding day falls on anytime during the week.
