My typical turn around time for connection sessions is 2-3 weeks. For elopements galleries are delivered within 6 weeks and for destination weddings 8 weeks.
I keep a watch for weather the days leading up to your elopement. However, I encourage couples to embrace the weather on their wedding day and do the same with eloping couples. Weather can greatly impact your elopement photography and I welcome the unique opportunities that are provided with foggy or wet weather. Your images will have a dramatic feel and can be an asset in developing one-of-a-kind photography exclusive to your love story.
If for some reason there are high winds, floods, or anything that could hinder the safety of you and your guests, we will look at our options to reschedule.
With the editing process of connection sessions, elopements, and destination wedding packages there is a basic skin smoothing applied to all photographs. Other than that I remove all blemishes that will be gone within 2 weeks. Images that require extensive editing like smoothing wrinkled clothing, removing tan, whitening teeth, or smoothing hair will require will need to be outsourced at an additional cost.
I routinely visit new places that I haven’t been to scout locations for eloping couples.
Once we have narrowed down the general area where you would like to elope I use several online tools to get a good idea about the topographical features of the area. I will present you with my findings and discuss our options. The day prior to your elopement I will visit the exact location at the times you would like to get married to assess lighting and make discussion regarding the best directions to shoot.
I know couples like the options of payment plans and it also allows the flexibility to purchase the services of other vendors so that their wedding dreams become their reality. All payment plans must be completed 30 days prior to their wedding day.
A la carte items include drone photography, highlights videos, drone videography, and wedding album creation. These items can also be included in connection sessions.
While I specialize in elopements and destination weddings I am always honored when couples want me to capture them on their wedding day and have no problem offering my services to them too.
Yes. To my fellow armed forces active duty and veterans there is a 10% discount on photography services.
My packages already have my cost of travel incorporated into the final price. This allows brides and grooms to never have to worry about their photographer’s hotel, rental car or price of my plane ticket. Elopement packages start at $4000 for domestic elopements and adventure engagement photoshoots/connection sessions start at $1,500.
If you are a couple that has decided to elope you have probably gone through the pros and cons of a wedding vs. an elopement, a more connected and intimate experience is probably on that list. Your wedding photography will revolve around your wedding story, capturing, laughter, happy cries and everything in between.
After you have decided that I’m your photographer I am your go-to resource from logistics, how to get your permits, lists of preferred vendors, elopement location lists and even playing the role or wedding day coordinator for your adventure elopement. With my assistance and planning experience being an engaged couple is enjoyable again.
