Process
As a Catholic Wedding Photographer, I will have the sensitivity and intuition to capture moments prayer, reflection, and spiritual connection authentically, creating images that reflect the couple's spiritual journey and the sanctity of their union. I have experience working in dark churches, knowing how to navigate the space effectively and make the most of available light to create stunning images. And much like our faith, Catholic weddings are rich in symbolism and as such, I understand the significance of these symbols and incorporate them creatively into their photography, adding depth and meaning to the images.
Investing in a Catholic wedding photographer ensures that the couple's special day is documented in a way that honors their faith, captures the beauty of their ceremony, and preserves the spiritual significance of their union for generations to come.

FAQ
How much do you charge for travel?
I love to travel... and the joy of being single right now is that I am able to accommodate that desire more.
But it does create an expense and that is the reality of wanting beautiful photos that honor your faith and capture your joy!
I will make the reservations and travel fees. Once the event is done, I will gather the receipts and send a bill at cost. I do not charge extra for any travel expenses.
I also do not charge for food expenses outside of the wedding day.
Do we need to feed you at our wedding?
Technically no. But I will charge you for my (and my second shooter's, if applicable) dinner. It will be included in the travel expenses to be billed later.
Do you include prints?
I include one 8x10 framed wedding print of your choice with my wedding packages. Anything else will be available in the a la carte menu that will be included in the welcome packet once you have booked.
When will we get our photos?
If a portrait session, turnaround is 2 weeks.
If a full wedding gallery, the turnaround is 6 weeks.
