Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions? Take a look at the FAQ or reach out anytime. If you’re feeling ready, go ahead and fill out the contact form.

  • Most couples book their wedding photographer 9–12 months in advance, especially for popular wedding months in Michigan like May through October. If you already have your venue and date secured, it’s a great time to reach out and check availability.

  • Most weddings book 8 hours of coverage, which typically allows time for getting ready, the ceremony, portraits, and reception moments. Every wedding day timeline is unique, so I’m happy to help you determine the amount of coverage that best fits your plans.

  • Yes. I help couples build a photography-friendly timeline so the day flows smoothly and you have enough time for portraits without feeling rushed.

    I also coordinate with planners and other vendors to keep everything running seamlessly.

  • Yes. Engagement sessions are a great way for us to get to know each other before the wedding day and help couples feel more comfortable in front of the camera.

    Many couples also use their engagement photos for save-the-dates, wedding websites, or guest books.

  • Rain happens sometimes, but it doesn’t mean beautiful photos can’t happen. I always have a backup plan for indoor locations or covered areas. Some of the most romantic wedding photos actually happen in soft rain or after a storm.

  • Your full wedding gallery is typically delivered within 12 weeks after your wedding day. You'll receive a private online gallery where you can download your images, share them with family and friends, and order professional prints.

  • Every wedding is unique, but couples typically receive several hundred fully edited images that tell the story of their day from start to finish.

  • Yes. I photograph weddings throughout Michigan and surrounding areas, and I’m always happy to discuss travel for destination weddings as well.

  • Yes. A signed contract and retainer are required to reserve your wedding date. Once those are completed, your date is officially secured on the calendar.

    If baby is uncomfortable, we do not force the pose.

  • Absolutely. Most couples say they feel awkward in front of the camera, but I guide you through natural posing and prompts so your photos feel relaxed and authentic.

    My goal is to capture genuine moments while making sure you look your best.
