FAQS

WHY ARE YOUR PACKAGES PRICED SO AFFORDABLY? You might've noticed my wedding pricing is low compared to other photographers in the area. I'm currently in the process of building out my wedding portfolio, so I'm excited to offer my services at an affordable price to serve folks looking for a budget-friendly photographer.

WHAT IF I DON'T KNOW HOW TO POSE? I totally get it, as a photographer who has spent 99% of my time behind the camera, being in front can be a daunting experience. For that reason, I help clients feel at ease with me through a playful approach to photography. I focus on the connection amongst my subjects rather than the connection with the lens. You’ll be busy talking, playing, dancing, and having fun instead of freezing into poses. And yes, when needed, I’ll adjust you to look your best! If you do want a more posed look, I have a lovely curation of pose samples that make you look effortlessly good. It's a win-win!

WHAT DO YOU EDIT IN EVERY PHOTO? I carefully edit all images to be consistent with the quality of my work as shown in my portfolio. Editing covers the following: Mild skin imperfections and smoothing of wrinkles Color correction Teeth whitening Lightening up of subjects Highlights manipulation to enhance the image and skies when possible Double chins Some fly away hairs Removal of people in the background NOTE: My regular editing process does NOT include full retouching with Photoshop, this would involve altering the basic structure of the image as taken such as: slimming, composites, tattoo removal, all fly away hairs, photoshopping of sunsets in the background (when the weather does not cooperate), removal of logos, head swapping, full wrinkle elimination, etc.
