FAQ
The timing depends on your wedding size and needs, but I suggest booking as soon as you have a rough date and a venue. I give a lot of special care and attention to each of my couples, so I only take on a limited number of weddings each year, and my booking availability stays limited. I can always refer you to some of my talented friends if I can not make it on your day.
I really enjoy connecting with my couples and hearing all about your love story and wedding plans. However, I also know how busy life can get, especially when planning a wedding! We can absolutely chat over the phone, on Google Meet, or through email—whatever feels right for you. If you’d prefer, we can always meet up for a cup of coffee or a vino and talk about all the exciting details in person.
You will receive:
Absolutely! Your wedding should reflect you, and I’m more than happy to discuss your needs and create a package that fits perfectly.
Of course, it’s all part of our journey together. I will guide you and suggest the best time of the day for your ceremony and portrait sessions, ensuring the most natural and beautiful photographs are captured.
Absolutely. Your memories mean the world to me, and I have systems in place to safeguard your photographs. I can walk you through those details during our first meeting.
Whether we have a little time or a lot, I’ll make sure you have the best photo experience. My promise is to keep things easygoing and stress-free. Discussing the schedule prior to the day is part of my work and care for you.
I provide all your photos professionally edited in high-resolution JPEG format, which is perfect for printing. The raw files aren’t included because they need color correction and processing to bring out their best.
I am here to guide you every step of the way! Creating a photography shot list together can help make your day as stress-free as possible. Every wedding is unique, and I want to capture all the moments that are special to you. Let's discuss if there are specific shots you have in mind or things you would prefer to focus on.
Lifestyle photography is all about capturing the real, authentic moments of your day in a relaxed and natural way. Instead of posed or staged shots, I focus on those genuine interactions and spontaneous moments that truly reflect your story. My style is to document the love, the special people in your life, and all the joyful details in between—making sure your photos feel as real and vibrant as the day itself!
Hey there! I just want you to know that I’m completely dedicated to making sure you feel relaxed and happy without any stress on your big day. Let’s chat about it during our meeting. My photography style is all about capturing natural, genuine moments without any forced poses or awkward reenactments. Most of the time, you won’t even notice I’m there!
I absolutely love working with natural light, but I’m also prepared for any lighting situation that might come up ! If the weather isn’t perfect or the lighting isn’t quite right, don’t worry. I’ve got the skills and equipment to ensure your photos turn out stunningly. And if needed, using flash can add a great fashion-forward vibe to your images! I’ll make the most of whatever lighting we have to capture your day beautifully.
Travel within Victoria is included in your package. We can discuss the travel details as part of your plan!
No, never. Your photos are yours to cherish and share.
