the best day ever

and it really was…

Whether you want to invite a handful of friends and family, or adventure to your favorite place with just you and your forever love, I’m all in. I’m located on the central Oregon coast just outside of Lincoln City, but I drive a Honda and she gets beautiful gas mileage. The beach, the mountains, your favorite bar, a backyard, or all of the above… I’d love to be there to help you remember your day exactly as it was meant to be.

WEDDINGS + ELOPEMENTS

What does your “best day ever” look like? Are we running away to the Pacific Ocean beaches? Are we hiking that mountain or celebrating with family and friends in your backyard? Whatever your best day ever looks like, make sure to do it your way. Don’t focus on what you think you have to do, but instead really think about what it is that would bring you the most joy on your day…and then do that. Without hesitation. Be lovingly selfish about it. You and your best friend are about to celebrate your forevers, so let’s make this day all about you!

FAQs

I WELCOME EVERY KIND HUMAN TO STEP IN FRONT OF MY CAMERA.

  • If we’ve chatted back and forth and you decide we are a match for your beautiful day, the yay! I do require a 20% non-refundable retainer fee to hold your date, alongside a signed contract. Once both of those are taken care of I’m all yours!

  • Absolutely! All out of state micro weddings and elopements start at $5,000 and include full coverage. Additional expenses for 2 nights of lodging and airfare are not included and can be applied once you submit your event location info.

  • Such an important question, I’m so glad you asked! I love adding warmth to my images, deepening shadows, and sometimes a litte bit of grain. Every photo, lighting situation, background, etc. will effect the way your photos come out. I follow my editing style as a guidline, but ultimately customize every photo to what compliments it the most. I like to go for an earthy organic feel, but the best way to make sure you like my editing style is to browse my website.

  • I know you’re excited and I am too! Although full galleries can take anywhere from 8-12 weeks to get back, I do send 20-30 preview images within 48 hours of your beautiful day.

  • This question varies depending on our time together but typically you can expect 50-60 individually edited images per hour.

  • When it comes to such a big day, the minimum hours I have set aside are so we can both be happy with your photo gallery. If I’m only there for an hour or two at such an important event, I end up feeling rushed and the last thing I want is to give you images that reflect that. For this reason, I don’t offer less than the minimum coverage for elopements and micro weddings.

  • The retainer fee remains non-refundable, however it is transferable to another available date within 1 year of the original date, as long as my schedule is open. If your event is cancelled, or a new date can’t be confirmed, your retainer fee becomes a 50% credit and can be used towards portrait sessions within 2 years of cancelling.

  • There is no wrong answer here. I have booked clients 2 years out and I have booked clients as little as 1 month out. If I’m available, I am all yours.
