HOW IT WORKS
let's meet!
Congratulations- you have made an exciting decision to capture your incredible adventure! Let's plan your session in person and get to know each other, asap!
We will meet in your home to discuss what you are looking for in a professional photographer and will measure walls in which you wish to fulfill and select a package that is best suited for you.
contract & deposit
In our planning meeting, we will sign the contract (digitally- I am 100% paperless) and send you an invoice to pay your retainer:
50% for portrait sessions
$400 flat-rate for a wedding
to secure the dates. These are non-refundable.
The package you select will be determined here for coverage, printed products, and also to schedule your shoot,andour Reveal & Fulfill Session, which is your ordering session.
We will also be scheduling your Reveal & Fulfill session upon booking your contract.
the shoot!
Let's have a blast! Don't stress about your session- please dress comfortably, get your hair/makeup done if you want to look your best, and consult with me if you want any other help picking what to wear or how to dress. Please arrive on-time, or let me know if you are running behind with a simple text to (858) 609-9626 - I would save this in your phone NOW!
For weddings, we will be meeting periodically to discuss invitations, engagement sessions, and a final meeting before the event. We will get to know each other VERY well!
Reveal & Fulfill sessions are the most exciting part where you will preview your images for the first time in your home or at my studio. All decision makers must be present. You will be picking the images for your album, print package, or wall art during this session. All pricing is subject to change if you leave without ordering.
It's a win-win for your, the photographs, and your future self as the quality and beautiful outcome of these images are created with a professional experience from the start until the very end!
After the Reveal & Fulfill Session, you will be sent previews to share on social media. You will also be receiving your own PORTAL with links to the online gallery within 2 weeks with TWO different galleries (Download & Share) and (Order Online).
It also will include your album proof and all of the customizable options that we discussed in- person! From here, you can find a link for your guests if you wish to send them the ability to access & print on their own.
Please see below terms on usage, deadlines, and sharing policies.
