FAQ
How far in advance should we book?
The sooner, the better! Most couples book their wedding photography 9-12 months in advance, especially for peak seasons. If your date is sooner, PLEASE reach out—I might still have availability for you!
Do you travel for weddings?
Absolutely! I love capturing love stories across New Mexico and beyond. Travel fees may apply—let’s chat about the details!
How many photos will we receive?
Every wedding is different, but you can expect 50-75 edited images per hour of coverage. I focus on delivering a mix of candid moments, emotional highlights, and all the little details.
When will we get our photos?
You’ll receive a sneak peek within 48 hours of your wedding, and your full gallery will be ready within 6 weeks.
Do you offer engagement sessions?
Yes! Engagement sessions are a great way to get comfortable in front of the camera before your big day. Most of my wedding packages include engagement photos—ask me for details!
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes! A non-refundable deposit is required to secure your date, and the remaining balance can be split into payments. Let’s find a plan that works for you!
Will you help us with posing?
Of course! My goal is to make you feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera. I’ll guide you with fun prompts and directions, so your photos feel effortless and true to you.
Do you edit all the photos?
Yes, every image you received is carefully edited for color, lighting, and consistency to match my signature style. I don’t use AI software or do any heavy retouching, but I do remove distractions like blemishes and stray hairs as needed.
Can we order prints from you?
Absolutely! Your online gallery includes options to order high-quality prints, wall art, and more so you can enjoy your photos beyond the screen. I highly recommend printing your memories!
