Frequently Asked Questions
I'm ready to book you! Do I need to schedule a planning call?
A.Yes, but don't worry! My planning calls are casual and designed for us to get to know each other, and talk about the initial vision for your day. It gives me the opportunity to get to know you and your partner and ask questions that will help me bring your vision to life. For you, it's important that you know and trust your photographer and planning-partner-in-crime. There's no pressure to book from this initial call, but getting to know each other is critical to the success of your day—you'll be so much more comfortable in front of the camera! After you book me, it's completely up to you whether you'd like to continue to connect via video call, or if you'd prefer to email or text.
I'm lost in my planning! Do you help with more than just photography coverage?
A.Yes! I offer full-service planning to my couples. We'll meet to discuss your vision and any details you've already worked out. From there, I'll give you recommendations on everything from locations, timing, details, lodging, and excursions. We'll talk about the activities that you'd like to do, who you'd like present, and how it all comes together. I'll create a custom timeline for your day, and even connect you with vendors to bring your vision to life.
I'd like to invite my family and friends. Is that still an elopment?
A.Of course! Typically, elopements are smaller ceremonies, with 20 or fewer people, and they're held at a non-traditional wedding venue. You get to pick and choose what is a part of your elopement day! If you love some of the traditions of weddings (cake cutting, first dance, seating for Grandma), I'm with you! Let's chat through the vision of your day, and put together an elopement or mirco-wedding package that works for you.
We aren't hikers. Can I still do an elopement?
A.Absolutely! What you do on your elopement day is entirely up to you and your partner! I've captured elopements at AirBnBs or lodges where we stayed on-site or drove to scenic locations. I've also captured elopements on family land or Mom's backyard. Not every elopement has to include a hike, and you can still get "that view" without it.
I want a different location. Do you only do elopements in Colorado?
A.I would be honored to travel to capture your elopement! For elopements outside of Colorado, I am unable to offer less than 8 hours of coverage, and travel fees do apply. Let's chat to put together a custom collection!
I'm on a tight budget. Do you offer collections with less than 4 hours of coverage?
A.If you've already got your plan in place, I am able to offer 2-hour elopement photography coverage. Planning services are not available for these packages, and they must be booked within two-months of the elopement. A travel fee will apply anywhere beyond 50 miles from Colorado Springs. Contact me for pricing and availability.
I can't wait to see my photos! How long will it take to receive them?
A.With all of my elopement packages, you'll receive same-day sneak peek images. You'll receive your full online gallery and complimentary album design within 6-8 weeks of your elopement date. If your collection includes album printing, you'll receive it 4 weeks after you've approved your album design.
