Absolutely! With over 20 years of professional photo editing experience, I’m able to work efficiently while still giving every image personal attention. All final photos are edited for color, saturation, exposure, and sharpness so they look their best. I give each gallery a film-inspired look, tailoring the edits to fit the unique mood and setting of your wedding. I also include light retouching, such as light blemish removal, gentle skin softening, and teeth whitening, at no extra cost. I also have additional options that can be included as an upgrade, such as consistent body slimming, etc.

In the past, I’ve worked with a second shooter/assistant, but I’ve usually found it unnecessary. Over the years, I’ve realized it’s actually much easier for me to capture everything myself than to rely on someone else and risk ending up with a lot of redundant or unusable photos, or worry about someone canceling last-minute. Plus, I’ve almost been tripped by other photographers before during a wedding ceremony, and I really enjoy maintaining my personal space. 🙂

However, there are certain scenarios where a second shooter is beneficial, such as for large groups (over 200 guests) and when the bride and groom will be getting ready in locations that are far away from each other. A second shooter is available as an upgrade to my standard packages.

Yes! While I’m currently based in Los Angeles, I travel to New Orleans whenever possible. My wedding package pricing is broken down by region, and New Orleans weddings and elopements are included in my “home base” region pricing, with no hidden travel fees. I also offer coverage for additional areas in Southern California and Baton Rouge, LA.

Yes! I offer a variety of options for both edited cinematic video and content creation reels. A video highlight is included as part of the fast-booking upgrade bundle and additional upgrades are also available. Options include content creation reels, digital Super 8 style video, and edited cinematic video.

I do! Just let me know if your venue requires a certificate of liability, and I’ll send that over to them.

I offer a curated collection of true vintage and vintage-style film cameras that create the distinctive, timeless look only film can deliver. These are included as an extra bonus exclusively for my clients who book within 24 hours of consultation. Once the film is developed, I scan the negatives (or have them professionally scanned) so those images can be added right into your online gallery alongside your digital photos. From there, you’re welcome to order prints directly through your gallery or from any lab you prefer. I also have several Polaroid and Polaroid-style instant cameras available if you’d love your bonus images in that nostalgic instant-film look.

Sneak peeks are usually ready within 72 hours. Posed guest photos and select couple’s portraits can also be air-dropped on site. My editing workflow is pretty dialed in, so the rest of your photos are usually ready within 2–6 weeks (most often around the two-week mark!). I love the editing process, so I’m typically diving in the very next day. Film development and scanning usually take a bit longer (about 4 weeks for film), and video editing can take 4–6 weeks.

My base package for elopements and weddings includes a download gallery of all available edited photos, sneak peeks, and a fast turnaround time. Elopement/micro wedding coverage includes up to four hours of coverage and my standard package includes full-day coverage with no time limit.

I usually recommend starting with a phone consultation, but if the website has already answered all of your questions, feel free to send me an email through the contact page and I’ll send over the booking form. Once you’ve filled it out with the details I need for your contract, I’ll email your contract and retainer invoice. I offer several payment-plan options, with the retainer set at either 25% or 50% of your package total. After that’s all taken care of, I’ll send over your planning questionnaire and the rest of your welcome information.
