Capturing the photos that can’t be recreated or staged, passing moments that fade as a memory, and photos you might not even have witnessed first hand on your wedding day.
Delivering photos that are artful, timeless, and undeniably you with a focus on the nature setting we’re in, the little details you’ve included, your loved ones, the dance floor vibes, and everything in between all in the best light.
Fill out my contact form with as much information as possible. It’s okay if you don’t have all of the details yet - I can help with locations, dates and ideas for your session, wedding or elopement.
This is optional, I’m not a big fan of phone calls and if you aren’t either - that’s okay! We can stick to emailing back and forth or if you’re local, let’s meet for coffee or a drink! However it is important we make sure we’re a good fit so I am always willing to hop on a call to get to know each other and chat about your vision and photography needs.
This is where we make it official! I’ll send over a custom proposal based on what we’ve talked about. I require a 20% retainer and a signed contract to book with me. Payment is taken through a secure portal with different payment options. Once this is complete you are officially on my calendar!
Once you’re booked, I’ll send over my welcome guide, vendor recommendation guide, and a questionnaire to get to know you two a little better. For sessions, I’ll send over my outfit guide and we’ll start discussing location options if we don’t have one. There will be times from booking to wedding day with little communication but I’m always here if you need advice, opinions, found your dream dress and want to send a photo to me (please do this), need help with your timeline or anything else! We will set up a Pre-wedding check in call 1-2 months before your wedding to go over any last minute details, timeline and just get excited about your day getting so close!
The day is finally here!! I’ll show up ready to start taking photos. I'm here to serve you in the best way possible and make you feel comfortable. Sometimes I’m more engaged and directing, sometimes I’m more of a fly on the wall. It’s important to me that you have all the photos you desire, the photos you didn’t even know you wanted, and also for you to spend time with your people and have fun. The day goes by so fast, enjoy it. You do your thing, I’ll do mine!
After your wedding you will receive sneak peeks within 48 hours, these are typically 15-30 photos from your day. You can go ahead and start sharing these with family and friends and on social media!
Your full gallery will be delivered within 5-7 weeks from your date. This will be an online gallery with high-resolution images and my print shop attached. Through my shop you can order prints and albums from premier print labs however you have printing rights if you would like to use a local shop.
I live in between Glenwood Springs and Carbondale, CO in the beautiful Aspen valley.
For weddings - most of my clients book me 6 months to 1 year in advance. The earlier the better to ensure your date is available!
For sessions - at least 2 months in advance is recommended but I do take last minute bookings sometimes. I have more flexibility and weekend availability from November-April.
The location, time of day and outfits become the vibe of your gallery. I will send over a what to wear guide and for location and time of day I’ll ask you to send me a handful of photos you love either of mine or pulled from Instagram or Pinterest so I can better understand your vision for the shoot and can better recommend locations and time of day! Typically either sunrise or 1-2 hours before sunset but depending on location and style we’re going for sometimes mid-day sun is what we want.
I’ll have a fresh perspective and more creativity shooting in a new space versus a venue I’ve photographed at multiple times before. I always research the venue and look at lots of photos ahead of time and arrive 10-15 minutes early the day of your wedding to tour the venue and find all the best photo spots!
Yes :) Pro tip: Bring a friend to help with the dogs so you can get a few photos without them and there’s less stress on the two of you and you can be in the moment. Or if they do good in the car we can start with photos including your dog(s) and then put them in the car for the last bit of the session. Oh and bring treats!
Yes, you are not the only one. Most of my couples have never had professional photos done before. I’ll give you prompts and direction. I’m here to make it fun and comfortable for you!
Yes, I will go wherever your love story is told best. No travel fee within 70 miles of Glenwood Springs, outside of that .60 per mile + hotel stay if overnight stay is required. Out of state travel depends on location $500-$800 flat rate. International depends on location but if it’s one of my bucket list locations you pay for travel only!
