IMAGE & DELIVERY
HOW WILL WE RECEIVE OUR PHOTOS?
After I cull + edit your photos, they will be uploaded and shared through an online gallery platform called Pic-Time. From there, you will be able to access, favorite, download, and print your photos!
HOW MANY IMAGES CAN WE EXPECT?
I don't prefer to put a maximum on deliverables because I tend to always overdeliver. After removing repeats, blurry, and out of focus photos, you can expect about 75 - 100 edited images for portraits + couples sessions. For elopements, you can expect about 300-400 edited images and 700-1000 depending on coverage chosen.
CAN WE HAVE ACCESS TO RAW FILES?
I will not provide the RAW (unedited) files. The reasoning behind this is because RAW files are my unfinished work and do not represent my style as a photographer.
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO RECEIVE OUR PHOTOS?
Depending on the session, I try to deliver galleries as soon as possible depending on the time year. Although you can expect a wait time of 6-8 weeks for wedding galleries and 2-4 weeks on senior galleries. Most of the time you will receive your photos earlier! I work my hardest to make sure your photos are edited to looks its best.
SESSIONS
HOW LONG WILL OUR SESSION LAST?
Engagements, couples, and seniors typically last between 1 hour — 1 hour 30 minutes. In regards to mini sessions, they are usually 20 minutes long.
WHAT HAPPENS IF THERE IS BAD WEATHER?
Although I cannot control the weather, I will do my very best to reschedule your session with me. Weddings unfortunately cannot be rescheduled, but we will make the best of it and all you can do at the end of the day is trust that I will deliver.
I DON'T KNOW HOW TO POSE IN OUR PHOTOS — HELP!
Dont you worry! I get this concern all the time initially before sessions! I work so hard to build trust + make my clients comfortable during their session. to help you relax, I love to play your favorite music + be relatable! when it comes to posing, it is my job to pose + make you feel at ease. I am a candid type of girl. that authentic smile of yours is the key to beautiful pictures!
WHAT SHOULD WE WEAR FOR OUR PHOTOS?
I have a Couples Handbook that I'll be sending your way that will help you on choosing what to wear, and so much more! To keep it short, I always tell my clients to try and stick with neutral colors + wear colors that will compliment each other. For seniors, I have a Senior Guide that helps you prepare for your session with me as well!
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A MINI SESSION & REGULAR SESSION?
This questions comes up frequently, so I wanted to answer this clearly. The differences are timeframe, variety of photos, location, and price.
WEDDINGS
DO YOU HELP WITH THE WEDDING PLANNING PROCESS?
Of course I do! If you live in the PA area, I would love to get coffee or lunch with you to connect + build my relationship with you. If you live outside of PA, we can always chat + connect via FaceTime! This is why I also HIGHLY reccomend couples sessions with me before your wedding. It allows you a chance to get comfortable with me before the wedding.
I’VE NEVER DONE THIS WHOLE WEDDING THING, ANY ADVICE FOR GETTING THE BEST PHOTOS OUT OF MY DAY?
Yes! In fact, I have an entire Wedding Handbook that I’ll send you full of tips to set yourself up for the best photos ever. I’ll also help you create your entire photo timeline to make sure the day runs seamlessly and we have time for all the photos you’ll ever need!
DO YOU OFFER A SECOND SHOOTER?
I sure do! Second shooters are additional add ons to my wedding collections. If you're interested, that is a matter we can discuss!
WHAT HAPPENS IF WE NEED TO RESCHEDULE OR CANCEL OUR WEDDING?
The non refundable retainer is exactly that — non refundable. The non-refundable retainer is a fee that retains my services for your scheduled session date that I turned down other work for. A minimum of 30 days notice will be required for cancellation. Any cancellation made within less than 30 days prior to the agreed upon service date will result in full payment by you.
PAYMENTS
WHAT ARE THE TRAVEL EXPENSES?
I am up for traveling if you are! Travel fees are calculated depending on the date and location of your wedding. Please inquire for a custom travel quote.
HOW DO PAYMENT SCHEDULES WORK?
For weddings, at the time of signing your contract with me, you are required to pay a 50% non refundable retainer of the payment total. The remainder 50% is due one month before your wedding. For all other sessions, the full amount is due upon booking the date.
DO YOUR OFFER ANY DISCOUNTS?
I do not offer any discounts. My pricing reflects my experience and what my work deserves.
