The fine print.
*With each session you will receive a beautiful, fully edited, professional online gallery. You will be able to download and share your images from there. You'll also receive a print release for the images you download and want to print. You may print your images anywhere you'd like or I offer print services fulfilled by White House Custom Color on my page to make this a 'one stop shop', if you'd prefer! I do suggest using a professional print lab for the best printing results. Walgreens, unfortunately, does not do great work, but I can offer suggestions if you'd like! I have had tons of prints, canvasses, and large wood prints done at a variety of retail outlets with great quality!
*Mini sessions are only offered at random throughout the year, so make sure to follow us on Facebook for up-to-date session notifications! (Holiday, Fall/Pumpkin Patch, and other themes included) Dates/locations set ahead of booking post.
*Sessions will take place at location(s) of your choosing, within 30 miles of Elkhart, IL (just North of Sherman on I-55). I have a grouping of favorite locations if you just don't quite know and need help deciding. If you desire a location that's special to you, I am more than willing to travel! A travel fee of $0.55/mile (roundtrip) past the 30 included miles will be added to your session fee.
*A photography contract for services will be emailed to each prospective client to be read and signed prior to booking. A 20% retainer fee is required to schedule your session, which is deducted from your session total.
*Planning a session as a gift? I provide custom printed gift certificates to fit your needs! Reach out and we can design one together!
FAQ
Where are you based and do you travel?
I'm a Midwesterner (born and raised!) based in Elkhart, IL just North of the capital city of Springfield. I LOVE to travel and can coordinate travel into whatever session you'd prefer for a fee.
How do you photograph weddings?
I love being by your side to help you before your wedding day. We will have a meet and greet consultation where we go over the day and your special requests. I''ll send you a timeline/guide to help you in organizing your day and the best moments for specific photos. On your wedding day, all I want to capture are the feelings, the mood, the emotions, the calm and crazy moments and all the details that make your wedding unique!
When will we get our photos?
You will receive an online gallery link with all your photos emailed to you within maximum 6 weeks (sometimes less depending on the season and prior photography commitments). Wedding albums usually take between 8 and 12 weeks to complete. You can download all the photos from the gallery but also share them, choose your favorites, and also order prints!
