Wedding Investment


Peace of Mind
​
I'm not a soulless professional just providing a service. Couples pick me because I'm very genuine, approachable, helpful, and I know my craft. I really care and want you to feel well looked after throughout the wedding experience. As a well-seasoned photographer with almost two decades of experience- I naturally also take on the roll of part-time coordinator when needed and I'm a great dress bustler :) I take the time to know your plans and I can also adapt to any changes on the big day when necessary. Every wedding is covered with ease, creativity and preparation so you can just enjoy yourselves!
My Style
I specialize in storytelling wedding photography. I like to keep things candid, genuine, easy and fun- mixed with my added touch of direction.
My editing style is clean, airy and vibrant. I avoid trendy filters and editing clichés so that your photos remain timeless. I don't rely on long shot lists- I get the real stuff going on in front of me and I know what most couples cherish. You get dimensional, intentional images that show the genuine love and real moments. Not only the beauty in you as individuals but as a couple. Whether you have an intimate event or a large fiesta, I got you covered!
And..
I won't be in your face, barking orders and taking over one of the biggest days of your life. I like to be as unobtrusive as possible. I'm friendly, helpful, organized, just bossy enough to get that big group shot done and above all, very happy to be there!
I want you to rest easy knowing that you are not only getting beautiful images, but also the best quality in finished products. Just wait till you see my gorgeous coffee-table style flush mount albums!
Thank you for trusting me!
How It Works..
First, you check out my pricing & frequently asked question's (keep scrolling). I offer complete collections, and hourly coverage. Then, you submit the contact form below and send me some details. I'll check my calendar to make sure I'm available on your wedding date. I'll reply as quick as possible, usually within 1-2 business hours.
(Keep an eye on your spam folder as emails hide there sometimes).​


The Day
I most commonly work the entire day. Why? Because I want to be able to create a full gallery for you that perfectly tells the story of what happened.
That means I’ll be able to comfortably fit in getting dressed, the ceremony, the dreamy portraits, all the way up to some dancing photos at the reception. All the moments will be captured with ease and creativity.

Next..
If you'd like to have a chat, we are able to jump on the phone, zoom call, or meet over coffee. Otherwise, send me an email saying you want to lock in the date! I'll send you the forms + invoice that you can easily take care of with a few clicks. Dates are booked on a first come, first served basis and I do limit the number of weddings per month.​

How early should we book our date?
I can only give that date on my calendar to ONE COUPLE. Tomorrow, another couple could inquire for the same date! It's important to book your date as soon as you know you want to work with me. Most dates are booked 10-12 months in advanced and I follow the first come, first served rule. I don't hold dates without a signed contract and $500 booking retainer, and I don't give info about other inquiries for the same date. So, to avoid letting you down, let's schedule that call or meeting as soon as you can so I can promise you that date and those dreamy photographs!
2
How do we book you?
Easy. Once you decide on your collection, I'll send you a detailed contract + invoice that you can take care of with a few clicks. A completed & signed contract and a $500 nonrefundable retainer are required for a date to be booked. The remaining balance can be paid in as many payments as you want, whenever you want. The balance will just need to be paid in full up to two weeks before the wedding date.
3
Do we need a second photographer?
A second photographer is very helpful on weddings that have over 100 guests. It allows me to feel like I'm at two places at once. So if I'm photographing the bride walking down the aisle, they are photographing the back of the dress and other angles. That means more photos and variety for you! I only hire professional photographers to work alongside me.
4
Do you offer video?
No. That's a whole different world and I'm not into it haha! I can't do two things at once either. My specialty, and heart, are only in portraits. However, I do know a fabulous video team that I can refer my booked clients to.
5
How soon will we get our photos?
While the industry standard is 6-8 weeks, I will post a teaser on social media with 5-10 photos within 48 hours after your wedding day, and your online gallery will be ready within 4 weeks of the wedding day!
6
How many locations and photos will we get?
I don't limit the number of locations and photos that I take on your wedding day. I'm there to cover it as it happens! The number of photos will vary based on the timeline and how much is going on, but if you need an estimate- I usually deliver 50-80 images per hour. Hard to give a solid number!
7
Can we split the hours?
If you're having a morning ceremony with an evening reception for example, we can discuss splitting the hours with one break if needed. There is a flat rate split coverage fee of $350 and the gap must be at least 2 hours.
8
Do you offer prints?
Absolutely! In fact, your online gallery has an integrated online print store where you can conveniently order from the best quality print labs that I have personally selected.
9
Do you travel outside of El Paso?
I sure can! I capture weddings all over Far West Texas, Southern New Mexico and Houston. There will be a travel fee of .75 cents per mile from El Paso County if the driving distance is less than 3 hours. Other cities outside of this region will require a different travel arrangement and can be discussed based on the location.
10
Can you photoshop us?
My job and expertise are to provide genuine occurring moments with authenticity. I do not photoshop images. I color correct, fine-tune lighting, create soft airy vibes, pose you in flattering angles, but I will not manipulate images/subjects to create unrealistic results.
11
Are you LGBTQ+ friendly?
Absolutely! Love is love and I welcome all couples. I have photographed same sex couples throughout the years and I would never turn away a couple based on sexual orientation, race or religious beliefs.
