EXPERIENCE

WHAT TO EXPECT

I am so thrilled you're considering me to take your photos! It's important that you find someone whose work you LOVE, but I believe it's just as important that you find someone who will bring out the best of who you are in your photos! My goal is to capture your authentic, raw emotions and those intimate and sometimes silly moments! I have a love for a more natural approach with my photos and editing style. I will help you with poses and angles but the real magic comes from movement, interaction and real emotions. The best way to describe my editing style is true color vibes and natural skin tones. I hope you love what you see!
At the end of the day, I want you to have photos that you can remember and cherish for the rest of your life!

FAQ'S

ARE THERE TRAVEL FEES?

There will be no travel fees when traveling within 80 miles roundtrip from Biloxi, Mississippi. Any mileage over 80 miles roundtrip is billed at $0.58 cents/mile. 

WHAT IS YOUR TURN AROUND TIME?

I value quality more than anything so my main priority is to give my clients the best of the best. For sessions like portraits, couples and families, my turnaround time is about 2-3 weeks. For weddings, it’s about 6-8 weeks. 

How does the boudoir session work?

The boudoir session is one hour long. You will have the option of 1-3 outfit choices and comes with a custom 8x8 hardcover photo book of your favorite photos. I will send you a gallery of the photos after the shoot, you choose 20-30 of your favorites and then I will create the book. The photo book is a minimum of 20 pages and you can choose to add additional pages for $5 per page.

Will my photos be posted publicly on your site or social media?

I respect your privacy and allow each client to decide whether or not they want their photos displayed publicly. I’d love to show off you & your images, if you’re game! If not, that's okay, too.


How many images should I expect to receive?

My wedding clients can expect anywhere from 50-90 images per hour booked. For example,,if you choose 8 hours of wedding day coverage, you can expect to receive at 400-720 photos in your final gallery. This number depends on the amount of hourly coverage you booked as well as the amount of activity your wedding day has. 

What equipment do you use?

I use all of the latest Canon equipment. I always carry the 5D Mark IV, the 6DMark II, 50 mm lens, 24-70 mm lens, & the 35 mm lens, among other items. 

Will you Photoshop my images to hide any unwanted spots, wrinkles, etc?

The only form of major retouching I do is blemishes, bruises, and anything else that is temporary. I also will remove objects in the background if I feel like they are too much of a distraction. I do not offer body retouching of any kind. I am firm believer that self-love is the best kind of love. 

How do we reserve our wedding date?

A deposit of $500 & signed contract is required in order to get your wedding day on the calendar. The remainder of your balance is due 30 days prior to your wedding.


Where are you based out of?

I am based out of Biloxi, Mississippi! I am from Oklahoma so I occasionally schedule shoots there when I travel back home. 
I am currently only booking weddings that are local to South Georgia or within driving range. Reach out to me if you have a specific location you would like to ask about. 

Do you help us build a timeline for our wedding day?

Yes, I will send you a questionnaire before the wedding date and after you fill that out, we can meet for coffee, chat on the phone or correspond via email to nail down specific times for what you want/need for your special day!

How will I receive my photos?

I will send you the edited photos in an online gallery! You can download them to your phone or desktop, share them with friends and family, and order prints!

Can I print my photos? 

Of course! After the session, you will receive an online gallery that will contain all of your images and a shop attached to it. You can easily choose whichever photos you want to have printed from this shop! I highly recommend ordering prints through my gallery site or a website called Mpix, but it isn't required. The difference in quality is huge when it comes to ordering through a professional lab, so I always love to help with prints!


 Do you offer payment plans for wedding photography?

Yes! To secure the date I require an initial payment and then the rest can be split up in to three payments if necessary. The final payment will be due two weeks before the wedding date. 

 Can I see a full wedding gallery? 

 Absolutely! Just let me know if you want to see a wedding gallery and I can send you the link.
