Jessica,

Thank you so much for hopping on a call with me! It was such a joy getting to know you (and meeting your sweet puppy!). I loved hearing how you and Owen met in college, and now, six years later, you're planning the most beautiful day together.

I put everything we talked about in one place, so you and Owen can look it over together whenever you have a moment (No rush!) You'll find your collection, your travel estimate, and two full galleries so you can see how I photograph a whole wedding day from start to finish.

Take all the time you need, and text me anytime with questions, even late at night!

I'm so excited for you!

  • Hands-on help building your timeline and shot list
  • Warm, genuine care through the entire process

Reserving your date

A 25% non-refundable retainer reserves September 4th, 2027 for you! The rest is split into a payment plan that works for you, usually two more payments, with the last one due 30 days before the wedding.

Coming to Philadelphia

I absolutely love traveling for weddings, and getting to know a new city through your day is one of my favorite things! Here's exactly how travel works, so there are never any surprises:

  • Flights

    Round-trip airfare for me and my 2nd shooter, booked well in advance so it stays as low as possible. I use my travel rewards points whenever I can!

  • Stay

    A place near The Bellevue, so I'm close by and available for anything leading up to the big day.

  • Getting around

    A rental car while I'm in Philadelphia, to your getting ready spots, the venue, and anywhere we explore for photos.

  • One simple total

    Your travel estimate is right under your collection price, and it's added to your invoice as its own line.

No hidden fees, no surprises. Just your day, beautifully documented.
