Wedding
There’s a wedding photographer out there for everyone, you just have to find the one that’s right for you and your budget. I’d like to think that I’m your gal, but let me tell you a bit about myself so we can get to know each other first.
I enjoy working with people whose wedding is a true reflection of themselves. At the end of an 8-hour day with a couple and their closest friends and family, I end up growing completely smitten with them. On your wedding day, I’ll be with you the entire time, camera in hand, but I’ll also be there for your sanity and support. Need some gum? I’m here. Need someone to track down your mom so she can finally get her hair all prettified? Don’t fret. Need to get the groomsmen pumped for formal photos? I’m on it.
Standard wedding coverage: $2,300 — For an 8-hour day, including 500+ processed photos on a flash drive, a private site for online proofing, a complimentary engagement shoot with high-res photos, and the rights to print and share photos (with credit).
To add a second shooter (my handsome husband, Pete) full coverage would be $2,800 for an 8-hour day and would also include the above.
À la carte items, such as flush mount albums and parent mini albums can also be added.
Rates can fluctuate depending on coverage needs, season, and date, so please reach out with any questions. For couples with destination weddings, please email me with details for my travel rates. As always, a 50% non-refundable deposit and signed contract is required to reserve your coverage.
Engagement
It’s not uncommon for a couple to have nervous jitters before an engagement shoot. Is your eyeball twitching at the mere thought of having to come up with an outfit and poses for the camera? Sit back, relax, watch an episode of Downton Abbey, and leave it to me.
Part of being a photographer is knowing when to direct the couple. Good direction means making the couple look even more natural in that natural-looking photograph. It means knowing when to ask a couple to pose straight-faced, when you know they’ll end up hysterically giggling in a matter of seconds. It means brainstorming outfit ideas back and forth with the couple. It means coming up with a location that will suit the couple’s personality. And it means becoming friends. After all, I’ll be there right smack in the middle of your big, amazing day.
Engagement shoot: Free — For couples who sign a contract with me for their wedding day, an engagement session is complimentary. Clients will receive 80+ processed, high-res photos on a flash drive, a private site for online proofing, and the rights to print and share photos (with credit). Includes up to 2 hours spent at the location of your choice, within the Greater Philadelphia area. Outfit changes welcome!
Please contact me if you have already booked a wedding photographer but would like to set up an engagement shoot.
Lifestyle
To me, lifestyle photography is about natural pictures of people doing everyday things in their own environment — preparing a meal together, parenting, strolling around a park — the list is endless. It’s upbeat, optimistic, fun, lighthearted, and most of all, believable.
I encourage the families I work with to laugh often and not take themselves seriously. I like to think my awkward nature loosens people up to be themselves and forget that a camera is in their face. Once everyone is comfortable, I’m a fly on the wall. I enjoy documenting families as they truly are. I love portraits that capture a day in the life, as it happens, while taking the ordinary and turning it into something extraordinary.
Candid lifestyle: $300 — Includes up to 2 hours spent on location with your family, documenting your relationships in a candid and unobtrusive way. Session can include daily routines at home or a family outing together. Clients will receive 80+ processed photos on a flash drive, a private site for online proofing, and the rights to print and share photos (with credit).
Please contact me for travel rates if you are not located in Greater Philadelphia. As always, a 50% non-refundable deposit and signed contract is required to reserve your coverage.
