Frequently Asked Questions
CAN FAMILY & FRIENDS JOIN US ON OUR DAY?
ABSOLUTELY. The day is about you two & so if that includes the people who made you who are today, than we will make it happen!
WHERE ARE YOU BASED AND DO YOU TRAVEL?
I am based in Oregon - But I am a traveling Elopement & Intimate Wedding photographer so I definitely travel. My packages have a starting price on the page because depends on the location travel fees will be calculated to cover my travel & lodging. My PNW package will have applied travel fees outside of 200 miles - this is a flat rate to cover my fuel & a one night stay. As for my destination & US packages, two nights + airfare will be calculate on the location. I make all my travel plans so that you do not have to worry about a thing!
DON’T KNOW WHERE TO START WITH PLANNING AN ELOPEMENT?
Don’t worry! I am here to help every step of the process. From locations, to what to do on the day, to timeline, to transportation, to vendors. Anything question you have, don’t hesitant to ask! There are no stupid questions here & I truly LOVE the planning process.
WHEN WILL WE GET OUR PHOTOS?
I always give same day polaroids! & then sneak peeks within 72 hours on an online downloadable gallery. I then will send the whole gallery within 8 weeks via an online downloadable gallery. You will receive full printing rights & are able to download, share, & favorite in your online gallery!
HOW MANY PICTURES WILL WE RECEIVE?
It varies! Typically around 50-100 photos per hour I would say! Each elopement & intimate wedding is unique in their own way & so the gallery will be the same. I provide high resolution edited photos of only the BEST shots from your day. Trust me, you will be happy!
HOW DO I BACKUP MY PHOTOS?
I take this VERY seriously! On your day I use a camera that has duel SD card slots which allows me to save your photos to both card simultaneously. Immediately after your wedding I then download & back up the photos to two different external hard drives as well as a cloud based drive! I then take the SD cards and place them in a sealed envelope and store them in a fire/water proof locked case until your wedding gallery is shared to you! Don’t worry - I have you covered!
CAN A SECOND SHOOTER BE ADDED?
YES! A second shooter can be added if you are interested. The add on is $300. This will ensure you receive more photos of your wedding day!
CAN I SUBSTITUTE MY ENGAGEMENT SESSION WITH AN EXTRA HOUR OF WEDDING DAY COVERAGE OR LOWER THE PRICE?
Unfortunately no. Your engagement session is complimentary. It is something I like to gift you get the opportunity to hang with your person without the pressure of the big day. It also is an a great time that we both can get to know each other before your big day! Typically with my engagement session, if you travel to Oregon there are no travel fees! Outside of Oregon my lodging & travel will need to be covered.
