FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 

Where are you located?

I live in a small town in Southeast South Dakota, but I'd love to come to wherever you are!


Do we get printing rights?

Absolutely! You will receive a print release with your online gallery which gives you the right to print and share your photos however you wish to do so. As the photographer I do retain the original image copyright.


Do you travel?

I'd love to. Reach out and give me the details and I'll be able to put together a custom quote for you.


How many photos do we get?

I'll pick out the very best images from the thousands (yes, thousands) that I will end up with from your day. You can expect around 50-75 images per hour of coverage. Image numbers for portrait sessions are based on the package chosen.


How and when will we receive our photos?

Portrait galleries will be delivered between 4-6 weeks after the session. Wedding galleries will be delievered 6-8 weeks after the wedding date.

I'll send you an online gallery with your photos. From there you will be free to download both full quality and web sized images. You can also purchase professional quality photos right through the gallery! Easy peasy! I also include a USB of the images for wedding clients that will be delivered via mail shortly after your online gallery.


What if I'm not photogenic?

Oh please! Your session will be laid back and fun. Just relax and we'll snap all those fun in-between shots that look perfectly like you, not some stiff cheesy version. Trust me as the professional and let's have some fun, shall we?


How do I book?

First fill out one of the contact forms under the "inquire" tab. For weddings I require a 50% non-refundable down payment with a contract in order to book. The full amount will be due 30 days before your wedding date.


Do I need a second shooter?

Not necessarily, but it's up to you! Although I'm confident documenting a wedding on my own, I can't be everywhere at once. A second shooter provides added covereage if you are especially particular about getting certain shots throughout the day. If that's the case, I'll be sure and have someone who I trust by my side that day!


What should I wear?

Such a great question and I can totally help! Once you book your session I'll send over a guide to give you some tips, and I'm always happy to have you send me photos of your outfits for advice before hand.
