I work with a diverse range of lighting. My favorite lighting is near sunset when the sun casts a golden glow over everything. I also work well indoors in churches and reception venues.
Is your media preference film or digital?
I grew up on film and it is a love of mine, but for weddings it is all digital. I love the variety and options I have with digital images, and it ensures I capture your moments perfectly!
How many photographers do you work with?
I am the primary photographer and often work alone, but I have a network of second shooters as well as my husband "photographer in training" that works with me. There is a fee to hire a professional second shooter.
Do you guarantee your presence at the actual event?
Absolutely!
Do you sometimes book yourself for more than one event in a day? Weekend?
No way. One wedding per day. If the events are nearby and timing works out, I will shoot a wedding two days in a row, but it will not impact either event.
Do you have a replacement photographer in case you become unavailable on the day of the event?
Yes. I have a network of other photographers offering a similar style that I can contact. However, it hasn't happened yet!
What kind of equipment do you typically bring with you on the day-of?
My camera, a back up camera, memory cards, batteries, flashes, diffusers, lighting (if necessary), and a bridal emergency bag.

See above!

Both. Depends on your package!

Yes, the overtime rate is $125 per hour or fraction thereof.
What is your policy on taking breaks? If you require a meal break, do you require that the client provide your meal?
Just one to eat, and maybe to grab a drink of water here and there.
Do you charge for travel?
Depends on the distance, but not usually.
How soon after the event are the proofs ready for viewing?
About three weeks depending on the season. My goal is always less than one month and I get one image out to you via email in the first week or so.

The proofs are available digitally by viewing a private website.
