FAQs

  • Like anything in life, you really do get what you pay for. If your brother’s wife’s cousin does your photos for free, your photos will likely look like your brother’s wife’s cousin did them for free. 

  • My travel is included for within an hour of Orillia.  My typical coverage area is Muskoka, Barrie, Gravenhurst, Bracebridge, Huntsville and Parry Sound.  Beyond that, it’s $60/hr. I'm pretty much game to travel and shoot anywhere with the exception of the GTA. 

  • While I’m based in Canada – I travel often for destination weddings in the Caribbean.  I’m happy to travel pretty much anytime/anywhere… Switzerland, Italy and our very own Canadian Rockies (love going back to the mountains) are on top of my bucket list.

  • I have great videographers that I work with often and would be happy to recommend. 

  • The main differences are the guest count, budget and structure...

    • Elopements: Typically 0–10 guests and focused primarily on the couple's experience.

    • Micro Wedding: Usually 10–20 guests with many traditional wedding elements, but on a smaller scale.

    • Traditional Wedding: Often 80+ guests with a full-day timeline that often includes a ceremony, reception, dinner, speeches and dancing.

    There are no strict rules, but these guest counts are generally accepted within the wedding industry.

  • Most elopements only need 2 to 3 hours of coverage. This is typically enough time for the ceremony and portraits of the couple and any guests who may be present.

    If you're planning multiple locations, getting ready photos, a first look or more involved session, 4 to 5 hours may be a better fit.

  • Most elopements include just the couple, their officiant, photographer and witnesses. Some may include a few additional guests. Typical elopements include 2 to 10 people.

  • In short, the head count for micro weddings is 10 to 20 people. They tend to follow a traditional schedule: wedding (ceremony, photos and dinner) but without the large scale guest list and venue.

  • Yep. Elopements can be just the two of you or they can include a small group of family members and close friends. Many couples exchange vows on their own and host a dinner or reception with loved ones afterwards.

    There are no rules and that’s one of the key features of eloping. It can be as private or as inclusive as you want it to be.

  • I encourage you to get in touch with me about booking your engagement session as soon as possible. But if you choose to wait a little just be sure to leave plenty of time before the wedding date – at least 2 months to allow for post production, ordering prints and artwork etc. Please note that I leave it up to you to get in touch when you’re ready to book your e-session.

  • Your images are delivered via your online Gallery. From your Gallery you can download individual photos or the entire set of images easily straight to your computer. From your Gallery you can also order prints and canvases – as a client of mine, you have direct access to my professional lab that will ship your prints and artwork straight to your door. Your online Gallery is designed to make everything simple and seamless for you and your family! 

  • Unfortunately, no. Retainers are used to block off your date on my schedule meaning I turn away all future work for that date. 

  • Yes, I do. Many venues require the photographer to have liability insurance. So before hiring a vendor, be sure they’re covered. 

  • Each of my wedding collections come with full resolution image downloads in JPG format. However, I do not provide RAW (unprocessed) files from my shoots because I believe in delivering only the finished product.

My 5 Hour Wedding Package

  • My 5-hour package is designed to focus on the heart of your wedding day. That usually means:

    • Your ceremony

    • Family portraits

    • Wedding party photos

    • Couple portraits

    • Candids with guests during cocktails

    • Your grand entrance + first dance (if it happens before dinner, which most couples choose)

    Every wedding flows a little differently, but 5 hours comfortably covers the most meaningful parts of the day - allowing you to be fully present.

  • That’s one of the most common questions I get. For many couples, 5 hours is the sweet spot - it covers your ceremony, family portraits, wedding party, couple portraits, candid moments at cocktail hour, and even your grand entrance or first dance if it happens before dinner. If your plans need more time, you can always add additional coverage at $400/hour.

  • Yes. You don’t need to decide everything up front. Some couples choose to start with 5 hours and then add an hour or two once their timeline is finalized. This keeps things flexible without locking you into a longer package right away.

  • That’s where adding extra hours or a second photographer comes in. Some couples choose to add 2–3 hours so we can capture getting ready or more of the evening party. Another option is a second photographer (I can arrange for you), which allows us to cover more in a shorter period of time. It’s completely up to you.
