FROM THEM

“When we got the photos back I was blown away with the careful composition, the wonderful candid moments, and how the BIG moments looked, such as walking down the aisle and exchanging vows.”

“She checked in multiple times in advance of the wedding, helped us get a general timeline started (this was essential when we felt like we were going in without a clue).”

What you’re paying for

YOUR DAY, EXACTLY AS IT HAPPENED

Before: a plan that actually works.

The quote builder drafts your timeline, then we refine it together, family photo list included, so the day runs without anyone watching the clock.

During: I run the day from behind the camera so you can stay in it.

Timeline help, family photo lists, and a heads-up before every big moment. The less I manage in front of you, the more I see. My priority is always you two.

After: a gallery you’ll actually go back to.

Sneak peeks within 48 hours, then the full hand-edited gallery within six weeks, with a year to download everything you want.

GOOD QUESTIONS

How many photos will we get?
Roughly 50 to 100 edited photos for every hour I’m there. I send what’s good, not everything I shot, and every one is edited by hand.

What’s included in every booking?
A sneak peek within 48 hours, a full hand-edited gallery, and an online gallery with unlimited downloads for a year. Weddings also get timeline planning through the quote builder.

Do you travel?
Yes. Anywhere within 90 miles of Kansas City has no travel fee. Beyond that it’s a flat $250 per booking, which the quote builder adds for you. For destination weddings, you cover travel and lodging.

How do we book?
A signed contract and a 30% retainer lock your date. The retainer is non-refundable, since it holds a date I’d otherwise give to someone else. The rest is due by the wedding day, or you can split it into two payments, one six months out and one on the day.

Is there a minimum?
No. You pay $500 for each hour you book, whether that’s one hour at the courthouse or ten at a farm.
