I am comfortable in all lighting situations and take great pride in being able to use a variety of techniques to make the light work to our advantage.

I only shoot digital!
How many photographers do you work with?
I work with an assistant and/or a second photographer for all weddings.
Do you guarantee your presence at the actual event?
Yes, I guarantee that I will be the photographer for your wedding. I do not hire out your precious day to another photographer.
Do you sometimes book yourself for more than one event in a day? Weekend?
I never book more than one wedding a day.

I bring a variety of lenses, flashes and for those occasions where I can setup studio lighting, I will bring multiple strobes, reflectors and modifiers. I always bring at least two cameras.

Absolutely! I will always have a minimum of two camera bodies and typically travel with 5 different lenses that can be used for a variety of situations.
Do you charge hourly or full day?
All packages are based on blocks of time ranging from 6 hours to unlimited coverage.
Are you available to shoot extra hours? If yes, how much do you charge for extra hours?
I am available for overtime in the event the wedding party has not booked an unlimited coverage package. The charge for overtime will start at $200 per hour for the first hour and then will go to $150 for any additional hours.
What is your policy on taking breaks? If you require a meal break, do you require that the client provide your meal?
I get so caught up in photographing the event that I rarely take breaks but have been known to take a couple of minutes while guests enjoy their reception dinner, cocktail reception, etc.
Do you charge for travel?
Within the Grand Rapids or Traverse City area I do not charge for travel. For any events further than 50 miles from GR or TC I will work with you to determine a travel charge.

Generally online proofs will be available within 10 days of the wedding.
In what format are the initial proofs offered?
All packages come with online proofing.
How long can the client keep the proofs?
Online viewing of your proofs is available for three weeks from the date of initial posting online. If you are on an extended honeymoon (and I certainly hope you are!!) then we can be flexible with the dates. Select packages that have printed proof books will also include a 3 week window.
Do you provide the digital files and/or negatives (or copies of the negatives) to the client?
Digital files are available as part of select packages or an additional fee.
