FAQ
Where are you based? Are you willing to travel?
My home is Orange County, CA & I am always eager for an adventure.
We feel uncomfortable in front of the camera…
This is so common & you are not alone in this. I will capture the synergy that already exists between you two. I will make it enjoyable. If you are getting married & are particularly nervous about it, I recommend scheduling an engagement shoot to help you build a relationship with your photographer prior to the day of the wedding.
What would you say is your specialty?
In a nutshell: candid photography. I have a talent for spotting those unexpected, spontaneous moments that truly encapsulate the spirit of the occasion. Whether it's the anticipation of a joyous laugh or a heartfelt tear, I thrive on discovering those quirky, out-of-the-ordinary instances that bring a unique flair—like a stray cat sauntering through a dinner party or the beautiful chaos of people just being themselves.
Do you exclusively shoot with film, or do you also use digital?
I embrace the best of both worlds! You’ll often spot me sporting 4-5 cameras around my neck, each ready to capture the unique spirit of your special day. I strive to create galleries that burst with variety and exude a heartfelt, scrapbook-like charm, as if each image were crafted by hand.
How much film do you use?
I use film very intuitively. Some moments call for film, some moments call for digital. To help with my creative process, I do not give myself a limit on how much film I am aloud to use. Film is supposed to be fun - so I let myself have fun with it.
How many images will I receive?
Not to dance around it but, I prefer to embrace the uniqueness of each session rather than sticking to strict minimums or maximums. I will not withhold any viable images that speak to the story. Every experience has its own vibe, and that reflects in the number of photos captured. For instance, a family session might yield anywhere from 100-200 images, while a wedding could generate a treasure trove of memories. As a ballpark figure, I'd estimate around 100 images an hour (or more!).
What’s your turnaround time on the photos?
2 weeks for smaller sessions like families & couples. Weddings are delivered around 12 weeks with a sneak peek gallery delivered once film is developed and scanned post celebration (about 2 weeks).
