BASED IN NORTHERN MICHIGAN| AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE

As a photographer / videographer based in Traverse City, there are no travel fees for weddings booked in Northern Michigan between the months of May-October. I try to keep myself grid locked in the midwest during the summer. In Michigan, you can find me busy capturing weddings, elopements, proposals, engagements, and portraits. If I’m not busy shooting, I’m productive in local coffee shops, overly caffeinating while I edit beautiful photos. I’m known to have an exceptionably speedy turn around on editing my galleries. While I promise wedding galleries in 45 days, I try to keep up on the editing all season to deliver within a month. Come autumn I’m often bogged down to the 45 days, but you would have had sneak peeks within weeks of your wedding day already.

As of 2022, I’ve built a team of associate videographers. Hired for photography & videography, I now provide a creative team that matches my candid and playful posing with true-to-life editing. Being able to provide an experienced team for the creative documentation of your wedding is priceless. Already working together, and knowing each others strong suits & expectations make the experience seamlessly aligned creatively.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Pre-Wedding

Yay! I’m glad you found your ideal wedding photographer, congratulate yourself on a job well done. You have ticked off another significant “to do” on your list of wedding plans.

I’m not only someone you hired, we’re friends. If you don't set up an engagement session, let’s still meet up over a cup of coffee or local hike. I’d love to get to know you in advance so you’re not meeting a stranger on your wedding day. If our availability can't line up, I’m more than happy to chat with you by phone or video chat. Please email, call, or text me whenever you’d like, I’m here to answer questions, or provide any guidance I can.

Closer to your wedding day, I send a questionnaire to get your plans and expectations from you. Addresses, and important contacts are also important for me to have so there’s no possible mixup of locations and I know who to contact in case of an emergency.

The Wedding Day

The day of your wedding, I arrive at the time we mutually agreed to. I will be alongside you as the day progresses. I primarily focus on capturing candid moments. Although I still take time for your typical posed wedding photography too. You will be directed for GIF photo animations, and drone photos (weather, location, & time permitting).

At the end of the night, I won’t leave until I check in with you and we both feel there was ample coverage of the day. If you decide you need more coverage than you originally planned, it is available for $650/hour and is due to Nicole before leaving your wedding.

Post-Wedding

It takes up to 45 days for me to edit and deliver your final wedding photos. The gallery will be delivered to you through an online gallery. You are welcome to print or download your high resolution photos. You have all printing and sharing rights for the photos so post away, and print as many as you want, wherever you want. I try to post at least a handful of sneak peeks a week or two following your wedding.

If you can’t wait 45 days, I offer a rush option for your photos to take priority on my “to edit” list. For an additional $300, your photos will be expedited to be edited and delivered within 2 weeks from the day of your wedding. Expediting is a great option if you want to include the wedding photos on your thank you cards immediately after the wedding or if you’re just anxious for the final images. I get it, and I’d love to have them for you sooner.
