FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do we book you?

To secure your date, I require a signed contract and a retainer payment. Once those are in place, your wedding is officially on my calendar.

Do you travel for weddings?

Yes. Southern California is home, but I’m available for destination weddings wherever the story leads. Travel fees, if applicable, are discussed clearly upfront.

What happens after the wedding?

You’ll receive sneak peeks shortly after your day. Your full gallery will follow within the stated delivery window. From there, you can download, share, print, and design albums.

  • I specialize in candid, documentary-style wedding photography with a cinematic influence. That means real moments, natural light, and minimal interruption. When direction is needed, I give it calmly and intentionally, but the focus is always on genuine connection rather than stiff posing.

  • I photograph weddings using professional Fujifilm digital cameras known for their film-inspired color profiles and natural skin tones. The look is timeless, true-to-life, and consistent in all lighting conditions. Every final image is carefully edited for tone and cohesion.

  • Most couples book 6–12 months in advance, especially for spring and fall weddings in Southern California. Popular dates can fill quickly, so reaching out early is recommended.

  • Each collection includes a set number of coverage hours, professionally edited high-resolution images in color and black and white, an online gallery for download and sharing, sneak peeks, and a complimentary engagement session. Full details are available on the pricing page.

  • Yes. Engagement sessions are included in all wedding collections and are also available as standalone portrait sessions. They’re a great way to get comfortable in front of the camera before the wedding day.

  • Wedding videography is available as an add-on to any photography package. Coverage includes up to 9 hours, a professionally edited highlight film, and full recordings of the ceremony and first dances.

  • A second photographer is available as an add-on. This allows for alternate angles during key moments, additional guest coverage, and more creative variety throughout the day.

  • Each collection includes a minimum number of edited images, but I don’t withhold good moments. If it strengthens the story of your day, you’ll receive it.

  • I don’t deliver raw files. Editing is a large part of the creative process, and the final gallery reflects the finished vision.

  • My background in filmmaking shapes how I approach weddings. I pay attention to pacing, light, and emotional shifts throughout the day. The goal is not just beautiful images, but photographs that feel immersive and honest years from now.
