Yep.

A 25% non-refundable retainer reserves your date, and the remaining balance is due one month before your wedding.

You can pay the rest all at once or split it into installments leading up to the wedding at no additional cost.

No interest. No financing company. No weird fees.

It depends on your wedding.

Guest count, hours of coverage, how packed your timeline is, and how much is happening throughout the day all affect the final gallery.

Most weddings average around 50+ delivered images per hour of coverage, but I don't photograph your day with a quota in mind.

If an image meaningfully contributes to the story of your wedding, I want you to have it.

You won't have to wait months to see anything.

I'll send a sneak peek shortly after your wedding so you have photographs to obsess over, post, send to your group chat, and stare at while you're supposed to be doing something productive.

Your complete gallery is delivered within four months of your wedding day, with timing varying based on the season and size of the gallery.

Good work takes time.

But I'm not cruel enough to make you wait that long for your first look.

First of all, almost everyone tells me they're awkward.

You don't need to arrive knowing what to do.

I'll give you direction when you need it, fix the little things you can't see, and use prompts when standing perfectly still and smiling at each other starts feeling weird as hell.

For family and wedding-party photographs, I'll give more traditional posing direction so we can get everyone organized and looking good quickly.

For the rest?

I'll guide you enough to make you comfortable and then give you room to actually interact with each other.

You don't need to know how to pose.

That's literally why you hired me.

I am happy to work together to create a payment plan that will work for you, even if the payment plan extends past your wedding day. In the case that this happens, I will still be there to document your wedding day, but your wedding gallery won't be edited & delivered to you until the final balance has been paid.
We can discuss this option more in depth if needed.

Hey, mine too!

But nope.

Divorced parents who can't stand beside each other? Estranged relatives? Chosen family? Stepparents? Someone who absolutely cannot be in the same photograph as someone else?

Tell me privately before the wedding.

We'll build your family-photo list around the relationships that actually exist instead of forcing everyone into some picture-perfect version of a family tree.

You don't owe my camera a performance.

We'll handle it.

Not necessarily.

One photographer is plenty for many weddings. I usually recommend adding another when you have multiple getting-ready locations, a large guest list, overlapping events, or a timeline where important things are happening in two places at once.

If I'm looking at your plans and genuinely think another photographer would make a meaningful difference, I'll tell you.

Additional photographers are $100/hour with a four-hour minimum.

No. West Virginia's 6% sales tax is added to the listed collection price.

I don't like surprise costs either, so you'll see the full amount clearly before you sign anything or pay your retainer.

Sometimes.

Travel within two hours of Fairmont, West Virginia is included.

For weddings farther away, I'll build any necessary travel costs into your quote so you know exactly what you're paying before you book. Depending on the location and timeline, that may include mileage, lodging, flights, rental transportation, or required photography permits.

Planning a destination wedding?

Please give me an excuse to use my passport.

Then we'll talk.

The collections above work beautifully for most weddings, but occasionally someone is planning something that genuinely doesn't fit neatly into one of them.

Multi-day celebration? Split elopement coverage? Something delightfully weird I haven't thought of yet?

Tell me what you're planning.

If a custom collection makes more sense, I'll build one.

If one of the existing collections already gives you what you need, I'll tell you that instead.

Then we adapt.

Rain, fog, snow, wind, weird West Virginia weather that somehow does all four in the same afternoon... none of it automatically ruins your photographs.

I'll keep an eye on conditions, adjust locations or timing when it makes sense, and help you figure out a backup plan when we actually need one.

Sometimes the weather we were hoping wouldn't happen ends up creating some of my favorite photographs.

So bring an umbrella.

And maybe a sense of humor.
