Frequently asked questions
01.
Do you offer engagement sessions?
Yes! It’s a great opportunity for us to get comfortable working together before the wedding, and you’ll walk away with a gallery of images that feel like you—candid, real, and unscripted. Whether it’s a casual beach stroll, a cozy at-home session, or an adventure somewhere meaningful to you, we’ll create something authentic.

Can we do a venue walkthrough together?
My approach is all about observation and anticipation. Instead of staging or directing, I focus on the natural flow of the day, reading body language, emotions, and interactions to capture moments as they happen. I move with intention, staying present but unobtrusive, always looking for the in-between moments—the nervous hand squeeze before the ceremony, the way your parents look at you when you’re not watching, the laughter between friends when they think no one’s paying attention.
I use light, composition, and movement to create images that feel immersive and real, so when you look back at your gallery, it feels like stepping right back into those moments. My goal is for you to fully experience your wedding day without worrying about the camera, trusting that every meaningful detail is being documented as it unfolds naturally.

Can we do a venue walkthrough together?
The turnaround time for your sneak peeks is 1 week and your completed, polished photo gallery is normally 6 to 8 weeks. I value quality above all else, so I make sure to take my time perfecting every gallery before sending it out. Please keep in mind that sometimes creating photos that meet these standards means that they’ll exceed the 8-10-week turnaround time.

Can we do a venue walkthrough together?
Yes! My approach is based on documentary practices—no posing, no staging, just real moments as they happen is not a problem. I blend in and capture everything from the quiet, intimate moments to the wild energy on the dance floor, so your gallery feels like stepping right back into your wedding day. It’s an amazing way to your story in the most natural and authentic way.
If you are a bride looking to blend the idea of documentary and editorial, I got you too. it all comes down to what you want from me as photographer.

Always and forever YES! I’m based in San Diego, but I’d be more than happy to travel to any location you need me to. All weddings outside SoCal will receive custom quotes depending on the cost of lodging, flights, and rental cars. International travel fees range from $800 to $1500.

Can we do a venue walkthrough together?
Absolutely! If you’d like me to walk through your venue with you before the wedding, I’d be happy to. It’s a great way to get familiar with the space, talk through any key moments, and plan for the best lighting and angles—all while keeping things stress-free and natural. While I don’t rely on shot lists or overly structured plans, a walkthrough can help ensure everything flows seamlessly on the day.
