I mainly do weddings, elopements, couples, families, and seniors. But, if you can think of it, I most likely take photos of it. I love growing with my clients and becoming their forever photographer.

Whatever the package you choose, as long as I receive the payment in full a month before your wedding date, it doesn't matter to me how or when I receive it. I can split it into however many payments you need.
