More pictures, less stress

One collection, everything you need

What could your wedding day look like if your photographer had no time constraints? Would you schedule more down time to spend with your loved ones before the festivities start?  Would you allow for more portrait time with just you and your spouse?  Would you enjoy a long, leisurely dinner instead of rushing through the reception schedule?  The answer to all of these questions is usually “yes.”  

After over a decade of documenting weddings, I have found that the best images come when couples are relaxed and at peace. By removing time constraints, we reduce the stress cramped or rushed timelines often create, allowing couples to add breathing room into their schedules and take in their day fully.

Additionally, with a background in photojournalism, I feel compelled to tell the whole story of your wedding day, not just a sliver in the middle.  Without time constraints, you don’t have to pick and choose which parts of your day get documented.

Frequently asked Questions

I am located in Portland, Oregon. For weddings I travel anywhere in Oregon, Washington & California free of travel fees. I am available for travel worldwide.

Wedding coverage “without time constraints” means that I will be there on your wedding day as early as you like until as late as you’d like. Usually this equates to 8 to 12 hours of coverage, though I have stayed longer than 12 hours when necessary.

If you are interested in booking wedding or elopement photography services, the first step is to inquire. If I am available on your date, then the next step is to set up a call so that we can get to know each other and I can answer any questions you may have. Once you have chosen a collection, I will send a booking proposal your way. A $1500 retainer is required to hold the date. Once the retainer is paid and contract is signed, you are officially booked and the planning can begin! The remaining balance is due by 2 weeks before the wedding or elopement.

I bring 4 digital cameras to every wedding. Two stay in the bag as emergency backup, and two stay on my body at all times. Each camera has two memory card slots, so that every picture that is taken is being backed up twice before the event is even over. Once I am home, the images are backed up on multiple additional hard drives. Lastly, your images are delivered via a beautiful online gallery that is backed up on the cloud.

Yes, I shoot on film in additional to digital. I started on 35mm film, and even developed my own images all throughout college. I bring several film cameras to every wedding and include hi-res film scans in every gallery alongside your digital images.

I have made it through 14 years as a wedding photographer without missing any weddings. If I am feeling under-the-weather I hire additional photographers to assist me, free-of-charge to the couple, to ensure the wedding is fully covered. However, if I am unable to attend a wedding due to an accident or emergency, I would do everything in my power to find another photographer to cover the event. I am part of a wonderful network of photographers that support each other when the unthinkable happens. In this case, the contract would be transferred to the new photographer at no additional cost to the couple.

Yes. I have liability insurance, and I can show proof to any venues that require it.
