Wedding Photography Q & A

Question

Answer

I feel like I might be uncomfortable and awkward in front of the camera. Do you help with posing?

YES! I pride myself in knowing how to pose couples in a way that feels like you, while not being cheesy or fake. Stepping in front of a camera is SO vulnerable, but after a session with me, many of my couples end up saying “WOW! That was actually so fun!” It will feel like a date night where I’m the third wheel, and I promise I’ll help you every step of the way.

How far in advance do I have to book my Portland, OR wedding photography?

Typically for weddings, around one year out. I’m almost at full capacity for 2023, so get in touch ASAP! For photoshoots, I book out 4-5 months in advance, and my soonest availability for a photo session is in March 2023.

After years of doing documentary travel photography, I shot my first wedding season in 2017. Ever since then I’ve been hooked on telling the story of weddings through my images.

Do you do payment plans?

Yes! After the initial retainer to book your date, I’m extremely flexible with quarterly payments or even monthly payments leading up to your wedding.

Where are you primarily based out of?

I am based out of Portland, OR, but I can do wedding photography in Portland, OR, and destinations all over Oregon. From Bend to the coast, and often Hood River. Literally anywhere in OR. I am also in San Francisco, Palm Springs, and spots in WA like Mt Rainier frequently for weddings and elopements! I go everywhere and love to shoot destination wedding photography too.

Do you help with wedding questions?

Yep! I have an entire wedding guide I send out for all the tips you wouldn’t even think of and I offer help anytime you need it! I love helping you structure the perfect timeline or even suggesting destination or Portland, OR wedding venues! 

Do you travel and will you do destination wedding and elopement photography?

OH YEAH 100%! I have an entire travel schedule on my contact page, and I’m always adding to that with more travel weddings. Get in touch!

Do you provide prints?

When I send you your online gallery where you can download full sized digitals from, you’ll also have the option to visit my print shop and order professional prints!

Do you provide albums?

Yes! It is my favorite to be able to design your custom album for you. You can have the option to add it to your package upon booking, or even reach out to me years down the line when you’re ready to purchase one.

We want to elope but we aren’t sure of how/when/where. Are you able to suggest Portland, OR wedding venues?

I am like an encyclopedia when it comes to Portland, OR elopements!! I have a ton of dreamy Airbnbs saved in the PNW, and I can also suggest beautiful and picturesque spots for you!
