I sure as hell am! All love stories are welcome, encouraged and accepted here! People of all sizes, shapes, colors and religions feel free to find a spot, take a seat and stay awhile! Every human is unique and has an original beauty to bring to this world, one that no two humans share and I want to help you see yourself the way I see you! Perfectly YOU!

For most Weddings + Elopements the average delivery time is 6-8 weeks. Sometimes sooner! Sneak peeks are delivered within 48-72 hours after the event! These are typical turn around times - Life occasionally does happen, but I will always do my best to work within these time-frames and communicate with you the whole way should I be behind at all!

I believe in giving you all of the good images I capture from our time together! I will typically go through and get rid of any duplicate, blurry images, or photos with peoples eyes close, (only the ones you for sure DO NOT want!) But the rest are yours! You can typically expect about 75 images or so per hour as a general guide.

Yes! All of my clients receive the usage rights with your photos. This covers the printing of your images, and using them on your personal social media accounts & sharing with family. As the business owner and creative, I reserve my copyright to the images I take - Which just means you cannot post/use/print etc. my photos for commercial or personal use and say that you took them! In all cases, giving appropriate tagging credit when sharing is simply enough.

I do not give clients the Raw or Unedited copies of their images. This is to protect my creative style and the integrity of my work. I will provide you with all of the great images we capture during our time together, fully edited and in accordance with my style and current skill level.

I completely understand! But just know that being yourself and engaging in the activities will soon have you forgetting all about the camera! Its gonna get awkward, so lets just clear that up right away! I am 100% here for YOU, so try not to worry! Its the unplanned and chaotic moments while you're laughing or being obnoxious with your partner that create the real magic in your photos. - that's what makes your images the most genuine in my opinion, and I prefer it that way! I will do some light instructing, but allow for you and your partner to be in the moment and intimate! We can listen to music, embrace the silence, or whatever speaks to your soul. *If you have specific poses in mind, be sure to get with me ahead of time so I know how to make this the best experience possible for you!

I want to answer this question upfront and honestly, so you know exactly what to expect with my editing. The simplest answer is, if its something that will go away, or resolve itself within a 2 week period (i.e scratches, blemishes, bruises) I will absolutely edit these or smooth them out. However, birthmarks, moles, scars; (permanent features) I do not touch, nor will I remove these! If you request advanced editing, for an added cost- I can absolutely send them to another professional who specializes in this type of work. Just my general PSA to avoid uncle Bob suggesting that I add more hair to his head - or your sister in law requesting to make her slimmer! I simply do not offer that type of editing. I work primarily within Lightroom, which is meant to enhance the photo - not change it!

The short answer is YES! Yes you do! Think of this as a practice run for your wedding day! You'll want to go into your wedding day looking and feeling like a rockstar and this gives us the opportunity to get comfortable with each other before the big day! You'll get your engagement photos back and think "Damn, we look GOOD!" and thats definitely the attitude you should have going into the best day of your life!

Great News! I can help you! Fortunately, Ive attended many weddings, and planned 2 of my own (to the same man, thanks 2020) Im no wedding planner but I can certainly help get you on the right track with vendors, venues & assistance with planning the perfect timeline for your big day. We can chat more about what aspects of your wedding mean the most to you, what you want captured & the feelings you want to remember. We will focus on what makes this day the most special for you and your partner! Its my job to help ease the stress of wedding planning by knowing what comes next. If you're eloping, I can help you navigate picking your dream location and any permits/ reservations you may need (most national parks will require permits) We can hop on a call or go for coffee and discuss your vision and desires for your intimate ceremony. Lets get planning!

Tennessee is super special to me, and is where my husband and I got married (twice- thanks 2020)! I am always looking for a reason to visit | So for my couples looking to plan their intimate wedding or elopement in the Knoxville, Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge area | Be sure to mention that when inquiring | I offer a discount of 10% off your package price for those who want to spend their big day among the pines of the Smoky Mountains!

Dont worry, you will be the FIRST person to know if I am unable to fulfill our agreement in any way. If its your wedding day or other planned event, I will find a replacement to fill in for me if I am unable to attend. You have my word that someone will be there to capture your special photos!

Let me know at the earliest convenience! I totally understand that life happends, and some things are beyond our control. Im a wife and mom, so I get it! Lol I allow for 1 reschduled date per booking, so dont stress! Any reschduled sessions past the first inital reschduled date will requrire a new booking fee to reserve the date & time.

Please, bring on the "bad" weather! Cloudy days + lots of movement in the sky makes for great photos, trust me! Give me all the diffused, moody lighting possible! Kentucky is one of those states where if you dont like the weather, wait 5 minutes and it will change! Being able to roll with it is part of the charm, in my opinion! Now, if there is a tornado, flood, or some other type of crazy weather - we will take a rain check and reschdule! Safety First!
