THE PROCESS
THE PROCESS
Once you’ve submitted your form, just know it’s arriving to one excited girl who is opening it at the speed of light. I’ll follow up with information on the different packages I offer and send over a Calendly link where you can see where your schedule lines up with mine and we can hop on a call & chat!
That’s when we’ll talk about your vision and see if our values align - you can ask me anything your heart desires :’) My hope? By the end, we feel like the perfect match. Your wedding day is sacred, and the honor of documenting it is never lost on me!
When you're ready to check "book documentary film photographer" off your list (wink wink), I’ll send over a contract. Once signed, a 25% retainer secures your date—boom, we’re locked in!
From there, you’re welcome to keep me in the loop as much or as little as you'd like. I care deeply about your planning process and am always here to share in the excitement.
About 2-3 weeks before your wedding, I’ll send over a short questionnaire to check in on your final timeline, what moments are most important to you to be captured, and anything else you’d like me to know!
The morning after your wedding, you’ll wake up to Polaroids to tide you over until your film scans arrive. You’ll get a preview within 2-3 weeks, and your full gallery of timeless film photos will be ready in 4-8 weeks.
Before I send them, I’ll give you a heads-up so you can plan a cozy night in—pour some wine, make your favorite dinner, and soak it all in.
Just know, being part of your day means the world to me.
We’ll be the perfect fit if:
You want your day to be a direct reflection of the love you and your partner share for each other.
You are more interested in being present and living in the moment rather than worrying about how things will appear on the internet.
You are interested in making memories that cannot be posed and trust your photographer to capture the joy that naturally surrounds you.
You feel comfortable going with the flow and believe the perfect photo is an honest one.
You don’t want to pretend and see that the bigger picture of your day is about marrying the one you love and celebrating with your people.
You want to work with a fun and easy-going photographer who wants to enjoy the day as much as you do!

I shoot on film only! I find that the beauty of film is that you can be exactly who you are without feeling the need to perform. Your authentic self always shines through in the images of joy that could never be replicated. It also allows me to slow down and be intentional with every moment!
-
4-8 weeks for weddings and 3-4 weeks for engagements/family sessions.

There will not be a travel fee for anything within a 20-minute radius of Philadelphia. Anything beyond that is $100-$400 depending on location. Locations that require a flight will be the cost of flight + accommodation. We can chat more about travel fees if this is a concern when inquiring!
-
I shoot on a plethora of 35mm film cameras. My local film lab always ensures the film is developed efficiently. I back up files on a hard drive and my laptop! Your gallery will remain safe and sound up until delivery!
