Frequently asked

Everything is shot on digital — but edited to feel like film. Creamy highlights, lifted shadows, warm muted tones. The goal isn't to look like a photograph. It's to feel like a memory.

I give you a direction, a small moment to move through — and let things unfold from there. Most people are surprised by how quickly it starts to feel like themselves.

For full wedding day coverage, a second photographer is always included. I work alongside Herman, my husband, so you're not just getting extra coverage — you're getting a team that already moves together naturally and understands how to capture your day from multiple perspectives without interrupting it.

For shorter coverage, I decide on a case-by-case basis whether a second photographer is needed, depending on your timeline, location, and overall flow of the day.

For couples and engagement sessions, your gallery is usually ready within 4 weeks, and for weddings it's around 8 weeks so everything has time to be carefully edited and come together in a way that feels complete and true to your day.

If you're booking full wedding day coverage, you'll also receive a sneak peek — 20+ images — within 3 days, just a few moments to relive right away while the full gallery is being prepared.

14 days from the delivery date. Download everything within that window — and I'd suggest backing up to an external drive or cloud storage, so nothing gets lost.

Yes, I do. I'm based in Sacramento, CA but travel often for weddings and sessions. Each location is a little different, so travel fees depend on distance and logistics. If you have a place in mind, feel free to share — I'll help you figure out what works best.

A RAW file is like a negative before it's been developed — it's not the final image, it's the starting point. What you receive is the finished photograph, edited in my style, the way I saw it. That's the work.

The retainer is non-refundable, as it secures your date and turns away other inquiries. If something changes, I'll always do my best to work with you — in many cases, the date can be rescheduled depending on availability. Everything is clearly outlined in the contract before booking.

Fill in the inquiry form on the Get in touch page. I'll get back to you within 2–3 business days. From there, we'll go over the details together — your plans, timeline, location — and once everything feels aligned, I'll send over your proposal with the contract and invoice. As soon as the contract is signed and the deposit is paid, your date is officially booked and we can start planning everything together.
