FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 *:・゚✧*:・゚✧What is your turnaround time?

Typically 2-3 weeks for engagement/portraits and a maximum of 6-8 weeks for a wedding. It all depends on how busy I am in the season.

*:・゚✧*:・゚✧Do You Send RAW Files?

RAW doesn’t just mean unedited, and I think a lot of people get confused by that. It’s actually a HUGE format in which my camera takes photos. For example, I shoot a whole wedding on almost 128 GB, which is way too large for me to simply send over. Part of the reason I get hired is because of my style and editing - that’s where the real magic happens. Editing is just as much an art as taking actual photos. So much that is actually slightly offensive to ask for RAW files.

*:・゚✧*:・゚What If It Rains?

The weather can be very unpredictable, but don’t you worry! I always have a backup plan in case of rain, and the necessary equipment protection if you want to embrace the weather and shoot in the elements! If you’re planning to shoot in the summer, I always recommend a sunrise backdrop just in case and I’m always willing to reschedule to keep you + yours safe.

*:・゚✧*:・゚✧How do payment schedules work?

There is a 25% non-refundable retainer due upon booking to secure your date in my calendar. After that, you can pay in full, or split the payments up to three times if you would like to spread it out over a period of time. All payments must be paid the day of your photoshoot or any day prior. You will not receive your photos until the payments are made in full. Payments are made via Zelle or Honeybook. HoneyBook is a software I use to keep track of all my clients and their payments. There are even automatic payment options available, it’s awesome!

*:・゚✧*:・゚✧Are you a LGBTQ+ friendly photographer?

Of course, I am! Love comes in many forms and shapes and part of my job and morals as a photographer is documenting moments as they are, full of laughter and that nostalgic feeling. As a queer individual myself, I love photographing people no matter their gender, sexuality, religion, or race. I’ll make sure you feel comfortable + loved at every stage of the process.

*:・゚✧*:・゚✧Do you travel?

I’m a travel bug! I enjoy hiking in the mountains, sunbathing in the hot Florida weather, and exploring New York's busy metropolitan streets. I get easily used and comfy in airports and planes, and I can make any place feel like home. Take me to your dream spot as you say "I do," and I'll photograph everything you dream about!
