HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN DOING PHOTOGRAPHY & VIDEOGRAPHY?

I have been shooting both photo + video for almost six years now.

WHERE ARE YOU BASED?

Colorado!

DO YOU TRAVEL FOR SHOOTS? DO PEOPLE TRAVEL TO YOU?

Yes & yes! it is all situational. I love exploring new locations and changing up the scenery.

HOW MANY IMAGES WILL I RECEIVE?

Every package has a different amount of images that will be delivered. I promise to deliver plenty of images to ensure your moment is captured to the fullest, Ijust don't want to limit ourselves to a certain amount.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO EDIT? (WHEN WILL I GET MY PHOTOS?!)

I am able to return photos fairly quickly! There are a lot of factors that contribute to how fast you recieve your photos, such as how much I shoot, if I'm travelling, or if it's around the holidays. Most portrait sessions are delivered under 3 weeks while elopements and couples sessions will take no longer than 5 weeks. I value both quality and your time, so I will attempt to distribute images back to you as quickly as possible, ensuring each photo has had a proper amount of time to be edited.

DO YOU ALWAYS SHOOT PHOTO & VIDEO TOGETHER?

No, although I don't mind to! It depends on the job.

WHAT CAMERA GEAR DO YOU USE?

For photo: Canon 1dxII, 35mm 1.4, 50mm 1.4, 24-70 2.8, Sony A7RIII, 50mm 1.8, 85mm 1.4 For video: Canon 1dxII, Sony A7SII w/ metabones

DO YOU SEND RAW IMAGES?

Typically no, unless explicitely agreed upon both parties. Editing is a crucial part of my job, and something I love doing. How you edit a photo is part of your signature, making every session unique. This isn't to say that I won't deliver and edit other images you request! I have no reason to withold images from you, so if you believe I missed something, just ask! I do not deliver the repeated,mid-blink,blurry or out of focus images...(unless you want them!) Part of my job is to cull through the photos and choose the most favorable images!

WHAT DOES PAYMENT LOOK LIKE?

I require a non-refundable deposit of 50% of the price of your selected package to secure the date + time of your session. The remaining 50% is due the day of the shoot. For Elopements and custom packages, you can split the payments up to 3 times to make your experience more affordable and flexible!

WHAT HAPPENS IF I NEED TO CANCEL MY SESSION?- WEATHER, SICKNESS, ETC.?

If the weather is unfavorable for the shoot / I am sick / Unavailable at short notice, you can put your deposit towards a reschedule or have it refunded. However, if you cancel or don’t show up to your session, your deposit will not be refunded. I value both your time and ours. The purpose of the deposit is to secure your time + date. Cancelling last minute means I could have booked someone else during that time slot. Nothing is booked until the deposit has been paid

WHAT ARE YOUR TRAVEL FEES LIKE?

I keep it pretty simple, and like to travel as efficiently as possible. That being said, I don't have a set fee like other photographers & videographers. Instead, all I ask is that you cover flight, transporation, and stay (if applicable). I'm open to staying with you, your friends, or split an AirBnb if it means saving money!

I like to book my own flights and transportation (if applicable). This ensures that if there is some miscommunication about times, dates, etc., that it is my fault not yours! However if you'd like to book my stay, I am definitely okay with that! You will be kept in the loop with the details of my plans for travel prior to booking, so there won't be any confusion or suprise fees on your end!
