FAQ

I am located in North Canton, OH, but I can certainly travel to you to get those perfect shots! Depending on distance, there may be a travel fee. We can discuss this in our consult.

I understand that gear is no substitution for technique and knowledge, but professional grade cameras and gear can elevate great photos to stunning photos.

My main camera is a Sony A7riii with dual SD card slots. I also use a Panasonic G7 as another backup and to cover extra angles for video. The third camera I use is the DJI Pocket Gimbal 2 Camera mainly for capturing video.

For off camera flashes, I use Godox flashes with several flash modifiers (soft boxes, gels, grids, etc.) to adapt to various lighting situations.

ABSOLUTELY! It always makes me so sad that this even has to be a question. I unmovingly believe love is not only everyone's right, but the very foundation of our humanity. Love is Love, and Love is Beautiful... If you have any questions, concerns, requests, etc. please do not hesitate to bring them up with me. My number one priority is to do everything in my power to make our time together a comfortable, joyous occasion.

- Excluding studio sessions, clients will receive a proofing gallery of about 50+ images per hour of shooting time. (So if you booked a 90min session, you can expect to see about 75 images in your proofing gallery). From there, clients will select up to the number of images included in the photography package they paid for to be fully edited. **(Additional images may be selected for an additional cost).
- For Studio Sessions, clients can choose up to 10 images to be fully edited for professional use.
- For hourly sessions, 30 images are included so clients can select up to 30 images to be fully edited.

Please see details listed in the specific packages & feel free to contact me with any questions.

All images in your gallery can be downloaded at web-size (ideal for uploading to social media) for free. Options for purchasing prints and high-res digital downloads are also available.

Some packages include a predetermined number of complimentary digital images & prints.
When I send you your gallery of images, you can download and purchase prints directly through the gallery. If your package included 5 complimentary high-res digital downloads and 3 complimentary 8x10 prints, you can download any 5 images of your choosing for free and order the 3 prints for free in the gallery's shop section.

Please see details listed in the specific packages & feel free to contact me with any questions.

For most services (excluding weddings), it takes between 4-8 weeks (1-2 months) to deliver the fully edited, unwatermarked, high res images.
Turn around times vary depending on the service you choose, the specific package you purchase, how many images your order, & the time of year your session takes place.

Weddings take 12-16 weeks (3-4 months) to fully edit. There are thousands of photos to comb through and then still hundreds to edit to the best quality.

**Please note that my turn around times are longer than most other photographers as I do have a full time job and 2 other part time jobs. I promise to get your photos to you as soon as I possibly can. Thank you for your understanding and patience!**

When you click on the link to your gallery, there is a tab at the top that says "Shop" and you can select which photos you would like to order prints of.
You can choose your desired size, finish, and quantity.
Other products include canvases, metal prints, calendars, albums, etc.

I am all about storytelling and the emotion presented at any given moment.

I will give general prompts when necessary and will capture formal portraits as requested but my main focus is about the authenticity and integrity of the events that unfold.

During our consultation, we will go over what kind of mood/style you want in to evoke in your images and video. I can do romantic, elegant, dramatic, playful/funny, flirty & steamy, light & airy, you name it and we'll make it happen!

Each wedding is unique and therefore the amount of photos captured will vary from wedding to wedding. On average, couples can expect to have around 50+ images per hour of coverage in your gallery.

All of my wedding packages except elopements include all day coverage. So if I'm there for 9 hours, you can expect to see about 450+ images in your gallery.

I know the excitement and eagerness to see your wedding photos so I will send you 5-7 fully edited, watermarked sneak peak pictures within 72 hours after your wedding day!

As for the rest of the photos, the turn around time will greatly vary depending on the time of year your wedding is.
For off season weddings, typical turn around time will be 8-12 weeks. (2-3 months).
For weddings during wedding season, typical turn around time will usually be anywhere from 12-16 weeks (3-4 months) depending on how booked I am. Details about these kinds of expectations will be discussed in our consultation.

Please understand that takes lots of time to cull through all the photos, go through all the steps to create extra backups, color correct, edit them, and upload them to your personal gallery. All of this is on top of the full time job and 2 part time jobs I also have. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Remember, all good things come to those who wait! :)

The highlight video of the day is a short video that is like a short summary of the day with the more significant clips of the wedding like the first look, walking down the aisle, part of the vows, first kiss, some portraits, audio clips of the toasts, first dance, and some dancing.

I will send you a link to your personal gallery of fully edited, high resolution images from your wedding day. You can view, download, & favorite your images and even order professional grade prints directly through the gallery!
You can also email, text, or share the gallery link to social media so your guests can view and purchase photos from your beautiful day!
At an additional cost, you can purchase an add-on of a USB stick with these files if you'd like!

A link to each of your fully edited, HD wedding videos will be sent to you to view, share, & favorite.

Yes absolutely. I understand that weddings are a huge investment both time wise and monetarily.

Your wedding is supposed to be full of love and joy and excitement, and I don't want money to be a huge stress on you. We can talk about logistics in our consult and create the best payment plan for everyone.
