Weddings come in so many shapes and sizes, which is why I wanted to make space for the unique needs of each couple who comes my way! Whether you’re wanting a courthouse wedding with 4 guests, an afternoon garden party surrounded by the 50 people you love the most, or a big ole PARTY with 200 guests and a disco ball, you DESERVE to have beautiful photos that will honor it forever.

Your flowers will fade. Your dress will get stored away. Life will move on . . . But the photos? Your grandkids will have them hanging in their living room . . .

And THAT matters.

I am the one vendor who you will spend the most time with on your wedding day. I will be there for all the big moments, for your most emotional feels, and for your quiet little hand touches. You want to make SURE the photographer you choose is someone who will help you prepare for the day, ease your nerves, keep the day moving, and who you will ENJOY being around all while creating photographs that honor how magical it really was.

If you haven’t yet, take a moment to read through the “About Audrey” section, or head over to my Instagram account to get to know me a little better and make sure I am the best fit for you!

So you’re feeling the vibe and are ready to move forward with booking – what happens next?! Well FIRST OF ALL – I do my happy gratitude dance because I am SO FREAKING HONORED you have chosen me to capture your day!!

I truly don’t know if you could ever grasp the joy I feel when someone books me for their wedding day . . . It is such a huge honor and responsibility and one I DEFINITELY do not take lightly! I am thoroughly dedicated to giving you incredible photos that honor your day AND a really fun, stress-free experience. This is a once in a lifetime kind of ordeal and it is absolutely supposed to be fun and joyful. I will do everything in my power to make that a reality! Below is the general timeline of what will happen if you decide to book with me.

BEFORE YOUR WEDDING:

• You’ve decided it’s a YES – Yay!!! Shoot me an email letting me know you’re ready to move forward with booking, and I will send over the link for you to pay and sign your contract.
• You’ll receive an email with the link to book – There is a form you fill out with your information, a contract you’ll read through thoroughly and sign, and the invoice. All of this can be done from your phone while sitting on the couch – oh the beauties of technology! $1,000 is due right away to hold your date and guarantee I don’t give that day to anyone else, OR if you want to get it all taken care of right away you can pay the full balance or any amount over $1,000.
• Once payment has been received, I will send you a questionnaire to fill out. This has a bunch of questions on it that help me get to know you and your partner better, help me understand your needs for the wedding day so that I can build an accurate timeline, as well as some other vital questions. Take your time filling this out together and I will receive an email once it’s been completed (no need to reach out and tell me!).
• Depending on how far in advance you are booking me and how many details of your day you have nailed down, I can create a rough draft of the timeline right away. Quite often this will need to shift some as we get closer to the date, so usually it isn’t until about 3 months out that we can get a more accurate timeline in place. We will also schedule a call for about 1 month out from your wedding day to review all the things!
• From the time you book until your wedding day – I’M YOURS. You can email me ANY time with ANY questions, ideas, dreams, worries, etc. Although I’m just one piece of the wedding puzzle, I have a LOT of experience behind the scenes of weddings and can share a lot of insight on what may or may not work. I’m here for you, so please utilize me if you need to!!
• If you decide to opt for an engagement session, we will start planning that right after booking!
• As mentioned above, a month prior to your wedding we will schedule a time to chat. During this call we’ll review the timeline, go over any other details, and I will share with you my list of day-of tips. These are things I have learned over the years that truly help the day flow smoother, allowing you more time to enjoy it all!!

ON YOUR WEDDING:

• I will show up at least 30 minutes early so I have enough time to say hello, get my gear ready and scope out the location.
• The rest of the day will be spent having FUN, celebrating, soaking it all in, etc. We’ll follow the timeline the best we can and I will be there to help keep things on track and problem solve if they get off track. Many of the times I’ll just take a “fly on the wall” stance, capturing the magic that is unfolding on its own. However, I will step in when it’s necessary to help corral folks and keep things moving along!
• Before I head out for the night I’ll make sure to find you and gush over how AMAZING your day was!! It sure does go by fast, so I’ll make sure to help you really soak it all in as the day unfolds.

AFTER YOUR WEDDING:

• Within a few days after your wedding I will email you over a sneak peek! There is just NO way anyone can wait 6-8 weeks for their photos, and I can’t wait that long to share them with you!
• Your gallery will take 6-8 weeks to be delivered, and depending on when your wedding is it may take the full 8 weeks. I will spend that time carefully going through all your images, choosing the absolute BEST ones, editing them to my unique style, as well as doing light retouching. If you need a specific photo before that time is up you can absolutely reach out and ask me for it!
• Once your gallery is finished I will send you an email with all the info on how to access it, download photos, order prints, share with family, etc.!
• You will have access to me after your gallery is delivered for any special editing requests outside of what I normally do – I have a fairly extensive skillset when it comes to retouching so please feel free to make requests! Depending on what the request is/how long it would take there may be a $7 per image retouching fee.

There is a general flow to a timeline, however no two timelines are the same! Many different things play a factor in your timeline – time of year/climate, time of sunset, size of wedding party/family list/guest list, number of locations, whether or not you’re doing a first look, etc.! Below are a couple examples of a general timeline I follow.
