Investment
Imvestment. There's a word for you. When you pay for your sessions and prints, (if you buy any), you're investing in me. You love what I do and how I do it and enjoy investing in me. I greatly appreciate you all and any new folks I meet. Usually ends up becoming a lasting friendship and one that we all cherish for as long as we can. Here are the numbers you need, depending on what you're looking for. **IF you want to book something with us, you MUST pay 1/2 of your Payment when you Book your Date. If 1/2 is not possible, partial Payment can be made. IF you cancel, your initial Payment will NOT be refunded!!**

FAQ
How do you photograph weddings?
From the moment you say YES to your beloved, we get to meet together and talk about your Wedding Day. We plan for your Engagement Session and about parts of your Wedding you already may know. I send out a Questionnaire to learn more about you and your future partner. For your Wedding, that day, you have me and possibly another photographer from the time your Prep starts, til the Reception after you all start to dance. We try not to miss anything and make sure you're not worrying either! It's the Best Day and you should be able to enjoy it!
Where are you based and do you travel?
I am located in Cahokia, IL which is about 5 to 10 minutes from downtown St. Louis, MO, depending on traffic. I can travel, but that will make your price go up, depending on what we are doing the photos of and how far I need to go. We always talk about it first to be sure we're the right fit for each other.
When will we get our photos?
Your will receive an online gallery link with all your photos within maximum 8 weeks (sometimes less depending on the season I photograph your story). That is just for Weddings usually, and other sessions that aren't Weddings, usually take about 2 weeks to get back to you. You can download all the photos from the gallery but also share them, choose your favorites, and also order prints (which will be set up soon)!
How many pictures will we receive?
For a 8 hours or more coverage wedding, you will receive between at least half of what I take which could range between 400 and 600 (more or less) fully edited images. I always choose the best shots and try to meet your needs and make sure your Big Day was absolutely amazing!
