How far in advance should I book my wedding photographer?

For prime months in Chattanooga (April-June, Sept-Nov) usually 10-12 months out.  For other seasons my average is 6-7 months.

How many hours of wedding photography do I really need?

Most clients need 6-10 hours of coverage to capture all of those moments.  The lower end for intimate weddings, with small wedding parties and small families.  The higher end for non-traditional timelines or multiple locations.  

What is included in a wedding photography package?

All packages include an engagement session, a second photographer, and 60-100 image sneak peeks within 24 hours of wedding.

Do you offer engagement sessions and do I need one?

Yes, I HIGHLY recommend doing an engagement photographer with your intended wedding photographer for many, many reasons we can discuss :)

How long does it take to receive photos?

A 60-100 image sneak peek is sent within 24 hours of wedding end time.  Full galleries are delivered within 30 days (deadline in contract).

How many wedding photos do we get?

Typically 100-150 images per hour of wedding coverage.

Do you help with the wedding day timeline?

Of course!  I know that if we don't have a good plan for your day you won't have the best experience and I can't deliver the best photos possible.

What are your backup processes and what about emergencies?

I have mutiple layers of safety for your memories.  I have backup processe starting from before I even leave your wedding. I take this very seriously.  The possibility of unforseen emergencies is the reason I include 2 photographers in all my packages.

Do you shoot LGBTQ+ weddings?

Absolutely!!!!!  I'm a LGBTQ+ friendly photographer in Chattanooga!
