PAYMENT:

You can pay through Venmo or PayPal to reserve your date. We can't hold dates without a deposit. Weddings and big events require a contract and a deposit. The rest of the payment is due 30 days before the wedding. For events under $1,000, full payment is required upfront.

EDITING PROCESS:

Editing takes about 8 to 13 weeks for weddings and 4 to 6 weeks for other events. You will get high-resolution 300 dpi photos via Google Photos. I edit photos to look natural, mainly using what I capture on camera. My portfolio shows my exact editing style. I may adjust colors or remove minor blemishes, but I do not change body shapes or drastically alter appearances. I'm here to capture your natural beauty, not to perform unrealistic transformations. The number of photos you receive varies by session type, but it's usually around 35 to 50 edited photos per hour.
