Get lost in each other. I’ll handle the rest.

Because I love love. I love marriage, and I love these commitments and relationships people choose to make to one another. Capturing a once-in-a-lifetime moment is something I don’t take lightly — these photos won’t just be cherished by the couple, but by their children, their grandchildren, and generations they’ll never meet, who will get to look back and see their love, this season of their life, and how their family began. I get to capture that in a way nobody else can, and in a way that lasts. That’s an honor I don’t take for granted.

Honestly, fit matters more to me than timing. Not every couple is the right fit for me, and I don’t take every booking — but when it’s the right fit, I’ll move things around to make it work, even on shorter notice. If you feel like we’re a match, reach out and let’s talk.

Enthusiastic yes. Travel and adventure are in my blood — I’d visited all 50 states by age 15, I’ve lived in four countries across three continents, and I’ve traveled to over 35 countries. I can’t think of a place I wouldn’t go to shoot your wedding.

It depends on the day. For proposals, we build a Plan A, B, and C together in advance, since I can’t exactly call an audible mid-surprise — I’ve shot proposals through blizzards and near-total darkness and made it work. For elopements, we’ve got more flexibility to shift the time, location, or day. For weddings, rescheduling usually isn’t realistic with guests and other vendors locked in, so my approach is simple: I wait out the weather with you. (Ask me about the time I danced in the rain with a couple during their reception — one of my favorite wedding memories.)

For proposals: a few images within 24 hours so you can share the news, and the rest within about 72 hours. For elopements: a sneak peek within a few days, and the full gallery in roughly 4 to 6 weeks. For weddings: sneak peeks right away, full gallery in about 10 to 12 weeks. These are conservative estimates — I’d always rather beat my own timeline than make you wait past it.

For weddings, yes, a second photographer is included in every package. For elopements and proposals, it’s not automatic, but it’s an easy add-on if you’d like one.

Yes, every wedding package includes one. Beyond great photos, it’s time for us to build real rapport before your wedding day, so I (and my second shooter, who often joins) already know your best angles, poses, and how you like to be directed. It means we hit the ground running on your wedding day, instead of building that trust for the first time during one of the busiest days of your life.

Yes, happy to. If you’re visiting and want mountain engagement or elopement-style photos, let’s do it. That said, if you haven’t booked your wedding photographer yet, I always encourage couples to shoot their engagement session with whoever will be shooting their wedding, for the rapport-building reasons above.

I work alongside a trusted circle of top-tier photographers, including David Gaston and Jewels Gray, and we cover for each other when needed. For weddings specifically, every package includes two lead photographers, so even in a true emergency, you’re still covered by a full primary photographer.

Yes to both.

Every delivered photo is color-corrected, and anything you print through me is retouched. The total count depends heavily on the event, a 20-hour wedding with 600 guests and a one-hour proposal aren’t comparable, but as a baseline, you can expect 100-plus photos per hour, guaranteed, and usually quite a bit more.

You get full printing rights and can print through any third party you’d like. If you order prints through me, I’ll retouch them, and I can only guarantee the quality and longevity of prints purchased through me. My prints and albums are handcrafted in Italy, gallery-quality, and guaranteed, when properly cared for, to last for generations.

There’s no hard minimum. Through experience, I’ve found that one hour works well as a starting point for proposals, and three hours for elopements, enough time that nothing feels rushed and you’re genuinely happy with the results, rather than us watching the clock. That said, if a shorter session is truly what’s best for you, I’m glad to do that too.

Yes. I work with a trusted videography team and can provide video alongside your photography.

A 25% deposit is due with your signed contract to lock in your date; this is non-refundable. Unlike most photographers, I don’t collect final payment until after your event, the day after for proposals and elopements, and two weeks after for weddings. I know how many vendors are asking for money in the lead-up to a wedding, and I’d rather be one less thing on your mind beforehand. You’ll get your sneak peek photos right away, with the rest of your gallery delivered once final payment is received. If you need it spread out, I’m happy to arrange a payment plan.

Two big things: a general timeline (while it’s still a draft, so I can weigh in before it’s finalized) and a detailed shot list for family formal photos. If that sounds like a lot, don’t worry, this is part of why I like to sit down with you over coffee or a beer early on. You’re not expected to have done this a hundred times; I have.

Digital files are included with every package. Printed albums and gallery prints can be added to any package, are included in some of our higher-tier packages, and can always be purchased separately later if you’d like them after the fact.
