Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I LOVE communicating with individuals and couples verbally. Lets hop on a phone call or a video Skype/Facetime together. Let's get to know one another and make sure we will be a great fit!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am proud that I took the extra step to be formally trained in my field of photography. I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Photography from one of the most prestigious art schools in the country, Art Center College of Design.
I shadowed multiple wedding photographers for a couple of years before starting my own business. So I could learn what I wanted to implement in my own photography business.

I got a Bachlor of Fine Arts (BFA) in photography and shadowed other wedding photographers before starting my own photography business.
What types of customers have you worked with?

I LOVE working with couples that are energetic, have a passion for capturing the moment, and enjoying the simple things in life, like binge watching Netflix, being outdoors, and enjoying what life has to offer.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
Capturing engagement sessions and weddings! There is just something about a commitment that two people make to one another. To endure life's challenges and enjoy what life has to offer.
I am glad I have a camera to cover my face during the wedding ceremony, because I tear up like I'm part of the family!
What advice would you give a customers looking to hire a vendor in your area of expertise?
Ask questions! How long have you been in business, do you have a degree/certification in what you do, why should we hire you?
The best advice I can give above all else, is if you can picture sharing a meal with this person, you are in the right place. If you can see yourself becoming friends and share some of the same interest you have. That is going to be someone that you can trust, communicate better with, and not have to worry about the little things.
What questions should customers think through before talking to vendors about their needs?
Be prepared to answer basic detail questions regarding your event/wedding. What date are you looking to book me? How many hours of coverage where you looking to get? What has your budget allocated for photography?
