Frequently Asked Questions
DO YOU TRAVEL OUTSIDE OF MAINE?
I sure do! Most of the packages on my website include travel within New England (MA, NH, VT, CT, RI).
Looking to bring me somewhere outside of NE? I'm SO down, and have always wanted to document love stories on the West Coast; particularly Colorado, Washington, California and Oregon. Send me an inquiry and I'd be so excited to see if we'd be a good fit!
WHEN WILL WE GET OUR PHOTOS? HOW MANY IMAGES WILL WE GET?
Gallery delivery times will vary, with engagement sessions typically delivered within 4 weeks, and weddings/ elopement galleries delivered within 8 - 10 weeks.
The number of images delivered per gallery will also vary, but I typically deliver 40-75+ images per hour of coverage.
As I am a film-forward photographer, I prioritize using film over digital whenever I can, and the majority of your gallery will consist of film images.
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MICRO WEDDINGS, INTIMATE WEDDINGS AND ELOPEMENTS?
In essence, they are all different ways of saying the same thing; you're having a nontraditional wedding day custom-tailored to you! You're more focused on having a celebration centered around experience, connection, and intention rather than a traditional wedding that prioritizes a large guest count.
Wedding celebrations with fewer than 50 guests are considered "intimate weddings", or "micro weddings", with the terms being used interchangeably. I classify elopements as having 5 or less guests.
Having a smaller guest count let's you two prioritize what's really important on your day of love, YOUR. LOVE. and are my preferred gatherings to capture. While I will take on celebrations of larger than 50 guests, my availability is extremely limited.
DO YOU OFFER ENGAGEMENT SESSIONS?
YES!! I looove engagement sessions, and I deeply enjoy collaborating with you if you have a particular vision in mind. Chances are, I know a really good spot for your idea if you don't have one already.
I also include a complimentary engagement session in every intimate wedding and elopement package I offer, as they're a great way for us to meet and build a connection prior to your wedding day.
Please note: All complimentary engagement sessions have a "use it or lose it" policy. If you cannot travel to New England before your wedding date or don't want the engagement session, it cannot be applied as an additional free hour to your actual wedding or elopement day.
YAY! I'm so excited, and honored! I cannot wait to bear witness to your magical day of life and love! Here's how to get the ball rolling:
1. Send me an inquiry message. Tell me all about your plans, your desired date and location, and I'll get back to you within 2-3 business days.
2. I'll let you know if I have your date available, and then we'll hop on a call or Zoom to chat, discuss the logitisics and I'll be there to answer any and all of your questions.
3. Once you're ready to move forward I'll send over a summary of our call as well as my client contract and invoice. I require a 30%, nonrefundable retainer for all sessions, with the remaining balance due one month - one week prior to your session date.
4. Once you've signed the client contract and submitted the invoice, you'll be official!
WE LOVE YOUR WORK! HOW DO WE SECURE OUR DATE?
