Your images will be delivered through a beautiful, easy-to-navigate online gallery—perfect for viewing, downloading, and sharing with your favorite people. You’ll also have access to print options right from the gallery if you want to bring your memories to life off-screen.  As for how many, it varies by session, but I always make sure you get a full story: Portrait & couples sessions: Around 50+ images, Boudoir sessions: 40–60 thoughtfully edited images, and Weddings & elopements: 400–800+ images, depending on your coverage. You’ll get the magic moments, the tiny details, and everything in between.

How will our photos be delivered? and How many?

For most sessions, you can expect to receive your edited gallery within 2–3 weeks. For weddings and elopements, the turnaround is typically 8–10 weeks, with sneak peeks delivered within a few days to keep the excitement going! I take great care in editing every image to reflect the emotion and story of your day, so it's always worth the wait.

What is your turnaround time to get photos back?

Absolutely, yes! All bodies are beautiful and worthy of being celebrated. Boudoir is about embracing who you are and feeling empowered in your own skin—no matter your size, shape, or background. My goal is always to create a safe, comfortable, and confidence-boosting experience for every woman who steps in front of my camera. You are stunning exactly as you are.

I want a Boudoir Session. Do you photograph plus-sized women?

It depends on where we're headed! Travel within Iowa and the central Midwest is always included—no extra fees there. For locations outside that area, I’ll just add the cost of travel and accommodations to your package, and we’ll chat through all of that before booking. If your spot is already on my travel wishlist, you might even get a special discount! Let’s make it happen.

Do you charge travel fees to come to my location?

My shooting style is candid and laid-back—I focus on capturing real moments as they unfold, not forcing stiff poses or perfect smiles. Think nostalgic, heartfelt, and full of emotion. I love the in-between glances, the loud belly laughs, and the quiet, honest connection between people. My editing leans towards warm and true-to-life with a touch of timeless film-inspired tones—something that will feel just as special 20 years from now as it does today.

How would you describe your shooting and editing style? 

questions

frequently asked

let's clear some things up

I've been a photographer for over 16 years, but my love for capturing moments goes way back. What started as a hobby quickly grew into a passion for telling stories. After photographing my first wedding, I realized just how powerful it is to preserve the real, unscripted moments that make each day unique. Since then, I’ve dedicated myself to providing couples with more than just beautiful photos—I strive to give them memories that they can relive for years to come. It's been an incredible journey, and I’m so grateful to be part of such an intimate and meaningful day in so many people’s lives.

How long have you been a wedding photographer? How’d you get into it?

Yes, I absolutely offer wedding albums! Each album is a personalized and timeless keepsake designed to tell the full story of your wedding day. We’ll work together to choose the perfect style, layout, and design that fits your unique aesthetic. These albums are crafted with high-quality materials, ensuring that they’ll be cherished for years to come. After all, your wedding photos deserve to be enjoyed not just digitally, but physically, in a beautiful, tangible form. If you're interested, I’d love to talk more about creating the perfect album for you!

Do you offer Wedding Albums?

Absolutely! I totally understand that investing in photography is a big decision, and I want to make it as easy and stress-free as possible for you. That’s why I offer flexible payment plans to break up your total into smaller, more manageable installments.  I offer a simpler solution, AfterPay is available! It lets you split your payment into four interest-free installments over time or 12-monthly payments (for larger purchases, if you qualify). Just let me know you'd like to use AfterPay, and I’ll send over a custom invoice through Square with everything you need to get started. My goal is always to make the process feel easy and accessible—so you can focus on what matters most: making memories.

Are Payment Plans something you have to break up payment?

I’m so excited you’re ready to take the next step! The process is simple and laid-back. First, you’ll reach out to me via my contact form or message, sharing some details about your day or session and your vision. After that, we’ll schedule a consultation (virtually) where we can chat about everything, from how I can capture your story to creating the perfect timeline or we can simply chat via email. Once we’ve connected and everything feels like a good fit, I’ll send over a customized proposal and contract for you to review. To officially lock in your date, you’ll just sign the contract and pay the retainer. After that, you’re officially booked! From there, we’ll dive into the details and start planning, ensuring everything is seamless. I’ll be by your side throughout the whole process to make sure we make your day or session as beautiful and stress-free as possible!

I'm so ready! How does the Booking Process work?
