Frequently Asked Questions

Each session is different for the amount of images delivered. You're able to purchase extra images for any session style except for Vows sessions - which already come with the best of the best.

You can expect to have access to your wedding gallery within 4 weeks, while all other shoots are typically ready to view in about 3 weeks.
Each session will vary depending on your package chosen. Lifestyle sessions are typically a minimum of 1.5 hours with a little flexibility depending on the scope of the shoot. Branding and Wedding sessions are more strictly held to a timeline discussed at booking.
After our meet + greet, I’ll email you a proposal with all the details from our discussion along with a contract for services. Once I receive the signed contract, I’ll request a 30% non-refundable deposit via credit/debit card to call dibs on your preferred date on my schedule. If we're renting a studio space, that will also be collected at the time of booking and is also non-refundable (although sometimes transferable if we are just needing to reschedule).

The remaining 70% will be due on the morning of the shoot. I am happy to offer payment plans for any session over $1000, so please specify during our meet + greet if you would like to go with that option and we can pick payment days that work with your needs.
Travel costs are included for anything within a 3 hour drive of my home base in Castle Rock CO.

Jaunts over 3 hours away may require accommodations for overnight stay if the shoots are taking place in the evening. I'll certainly let you know up front before booking. If the timeline shifts from the original plan when you booked the session and becomes necessary after the fact, appropriate accommodations will be billed on a separate invoice. 

I am always up for the adventure of farther travel and will be happy to give you a custom quote for your out of state photography experience!
I strive to bring every client both an outstanding experience and product that result in cherished memories. Because so much care and effort is put into the time we spend together, as well as hand editing your images, I am unable to offer refunds. Rest assured, I devote a great deal of time and attention to details on the front end to ensure my clients will be thrilled with the outcome of my services!
If you need to reschedule your session, the deposit will be held for your new date. In the unfortunate event you are unable to go through with the scheduled shoot, you may cancel but you will forfeit your deposit. Any rental space fees will be moved at the discretion and availability of their reschedule policy.

On my end, unless I am too ill or injured to perform, I’ll be there! In a worst case scenario, I would make every effort to find you a photographer to step in that reflects my photography style closest. In this instance only would a client be entitled to a full refund, including the deposit. Though rare, I may suggest rescheduling the shoot if the light or significant weather are likely to reduce the quality of my services, and only if you agree.
I’m all about fully embracing whatever Mother Nature has in store! I grew up in Florida, so unless it’s a Category 4 hurricane, rain is no big deal. Snow, wind, fog, rain, even a faraway forest fire are all natural elements that contribute to the uniqueness of a shoot. Not to mention it often means you’ll wind up with a story for the grandkids someday!

Unless the weather becomes dangerous or unmanageable (for us or my equipment), it’s my practice to suggest a way to improvise or incorporate the weather into our shoot. Mother Nature makes for some incredible shots!
When your gallery is ready, I’ll email you with a link where you can view, favorite, share, and download your images from the comfort of your own home and at your own pace.

Please don’t let your memories die on a hard drive. One of my favorite things I had the opportunity to do was to go through boxes of old photos with my mom and put them in some stylish albums. It was pretty incredible to see photos of late relatives dating back as far as the late 1800s and to imagine what life was like for them. To make it easy for you to keep your memories tangible, I have amazing, high-quality prints + albums for sale directly attached to your gallery for your convenience.
I’ve photographed in a wide variety of locations and have great recommendations to discuss with you depending on what we discover during our meet + greet. Of course, I'm always open to suggestions for the location and am happy to do some scouting and go over my findings with you. Permits are sometimes necessary, and I’ll handle acquiring them for the shoot. Any permit fees will be billed to your invoice.
I have a secret stash of rental spaces that are flooded with gorgeous, natural light, are stylized, and offer you a variety of vibes to choose from. The cost of rental space is charged to the client on all shoots. I'll handle the booking process so you don't have to.
I use a CRM system that tracks our progress, handles online payments, and uses a messaging system via email to communicate. Zoom sessions and phone calls are great for when in-person meetups aren't available for our initial discovery chat.
