ATLANTA - PHOENIX - DESTINATION

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN PHOTOGRAPHING WEDDINGS?
I have been photographing weddings for almost a decade.. Time flies when you're having fun! I started out second shooting and then established my own photography studio. Most of my wedding experience has been photographing destination weddings.

WHAT TYPE OF PHOTOGRAPHY DO YOU DO?
My main focus is on weddings and I specialize in destination weddings. About 75% or more of my weddings are out of town, or out of the country. I also do engagement sessions, day after sessions, love shoots, styled shoots & portraits, but the bulk of my work is weddings.

WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED AND DO YOU TRAVEL?
I have offices in both Atlanta, Georgia and Phoenix, Arizona but I absolutely LOVE traveling for weddings. A change of scenery really inspires me to take more artistic photos that push me as a photographer to do something new and fresh. I have traveled all over the world and domestically for weddings from Florida to New York, to Charleston to Mexico. ***Please see the "Destination Weddings" page for additional information.***

DO YOU HAVE AN ASSISTANT?
Yes, I do hire an assistant/second shooter to help photograph your wedding. A second shooter provides a different perspective from the main shooter and will ensure that all events of the day are fully covered.

I LOVE YOUR WORK, HOW DO I BOOK YOUR SERVICES?
After looking over my website, blog and package information, if you are passionate about photography and feel it is essential to your special day, I would love to setup a meeting or conference call to discuss your photography needs. I can then provide a custom quote based on your package preference and album choice. No date is held without a signed contract and a 50% retainer - first come, first served. Both the contract and 50% retainer must be delivered to book the date. For those planning from a distance, all quotes, contracts and other paperwork can be transmitted electronically.
