Intimate Weddings

I know postponing a wedding is not an easy decision. If you find yourself in this situation, I ask that you let me know ASAP so that we can work together to find you a new wedding date. At this time, I am not charging a rescheduling fee for the first reschedule.

Should I be unavailable on a new date, I will hire an associate photographer with a similar shooting style as me. They will photograph your wedding on my behalf, and send me the images for editing so they will match my style. Please remember that the retainer you paid to reserve your date is not refundable but can be put towards a future portrait session. 

Yes! I (and my husband) are fully vaccinated as of late April 2021 and had a booster in January 2022.  All my regular second shooters are also vaccinated. We can furnish our vaccine cards for venue compliance.

I am fortunate to be a part of an incredible community of local photographers. Should I find out that I am sick before your wedding, I'll will reach out and find someone to associate shoot your wedding. They will send me the images for editing after the event.

Unfortunately due to my shooting schedule, it is not possible to fully quarantine for two weeks prior to your wedding day. However I do my very best to limit my exposure to others  in the lead up to your day and take all necessary precautions on your day.  I do work from home full time and naturally have limited exposure and my household is already vaccinated. 

I know that choosing to canceling a wedding is not an easy decision. If you find yourself in this situation, I ask that you let me know ASAP. The retainer you paid to reserve our time will not be refundable but can be put towards a future portrait session or a smaller event.

I ask that the couples and families I work with during this time do their best to limit their contact with others prior to the wedding day. My team and myself are wearing masks while indoors for your protection. 

We ask that you limit the number of people in the getting ready rooms to only the most necessary individuals and keep windows and doors open for the best ventilation possible.  Should space allow, we ask to take our meal away from guests so we may unmask safely. 

Please remember, these suggestions are to keep you safe as much as my team. We can shoot up to 5 weddings per month and want to keep you safe while we are interacting with many people frequently. 

Like just about everything in this season, your wedding day coverage will look a little bit different. I and my team will wear a mask while we shoot and remain socially distant. It's likely that we use longer lenses to maintain distance between ourselves and our subjects. (See the question above)

One thing to bear in mind is the comfort level of your guests may be different. I have new tactics to help with family formals in case your guests are uncomfortable with group shots. You will also see masks in your images as your guests wear them.

While coverage will look a bit different, my clients have not noticed a difference in the quality of the images we produce on their wedding day. If you would like to see a wedding photographed during the pandemic, just send me an email!

As long as we are in a location that does not legally require masks and we are socially distanced, a mask will not be required during photos. 

I do ask, when possible, your bridal party and guests wear masks around us, especially while indoors.

I am still shooting engagement sessions. During the session, we'll maintain a safe distance and do our best to choose an outdoor location that does not legally require masks. 

At this point, our couples have not noticed a difference in the quality of their engagement session images. If anything, there are less people in the backgrounds!

I most commonly work in Maryland but frequently travel out of state for weddings. I include 60 miles round trip for each wedding and 60 miles for the engagement shoot. 
Any additional travel (such as hotel requirements) can be discussed during our consultation call.
Until I am vaccinated, I will not be taking any travel that requires an airplane. Once vaccinated, all form of travel is open again.
