Recently engaged? Wanna celebrate an anniversary? Just looking for a photo refresh? My couple sessions are so much fun and even if you feel like the most awkward person ever, you will absolutely love how the photos turn out.
Are you ready to make some magic happen? Heck yeah, let's do this!
First things first, you'll need to head on over to my contact form and fill that baby out. Once I have those deets, I'll give 'em a good review and get back to you within 24-48 hours.
Then, we'll hop on a quick phone or zoom call to make sure we vibe and answer any questions you have. Once you're ready to kick things into high gear, I'll send over the contract and invoice. I'll need a 20% nonrefundable deposit to get the party started, and then the remaining 80% is due a month before your big day. If you need a payment plan, no sweat - we can sort that out too!
Now, the real fun begins. Together, we'll create the elopement (or wedding) of your freakin' dreams! Want me to take the reins? I'm all in! Or, if you prefer to be more hands-on, I can be more of a guide to help you navigate the process.
As your big day approaches, let's hang out in person over a beer or coffee to iron out any last-minute details and get comfortable with each other. If you're planning a wedding we can do this at your engagement session! That way, you can feel totally at ease when the day arrives.
And finally, the moment you've been waiting for - have a blast, make memories, and let's create a day you'll never forget!
FAQ
How many images can I expect to receive?
I generally say expect 50-100 images per hour, however, every wedding is unique and the amount of images delivered will ultimately depend on what you end up doing. Rest assured I will send you all of the special moments and weed out any duplicates or closed-eyed and blurred photos.
How do I book you?
For all sessions and weddings, I require a 20% nonrefundable retainer to officially reserve your date (along with the contract). This will be paid by credit or debit card. Then the rest of your balance will be due a month before your date. We can set up payment plans if need be.
When will I receive my images?
I will send you high-resolution images within 24-48 hours of your adventure session or wedding. That way you can share images on social media! The full gallery will be completed and delivered to you within 4-8 weeks.
We're really awkward. Can you help us?
Staaawwwwppp. Except same. I think it's natural to feel pretty awkward when you first meet someone new. It's part of the process and adventure of getting to know someone! I am here to make you feel as comfortable as possible and hopefully, by the end of our session, you'll be laughing and smiling. As for posing, I gotchu. I'll tell you exactly where I want you and I promise you, my methods are awkward-proof. You'll be astounded and love your photos, I promise! :)
Do we need a wedding officiant for our elopement? If yes, can you recommend one?
Not in Colorado! You can self-solumnize... Isn't that sick? Also, you can have your dogs sign with their paw print... I love Colorado.
We want to include our dog into the elopement ceremony and photos, is that okay?
Please bring your dogs. And cats. And snakes.
