Frequently Asked Questions

I shoot digital! I use two Sony a7IV, I was a Canon user for 6 years but switched to a new system in 2019 and I AM IN LOVE! I am in love and I don’t care who knows it (Yay, ELF reference!) I also have a variety of flashes and light panels I can use, so indoor photos aren't a problem!

Contact me for more details + availability for your special day! Not sure how much time to book? Let’s set up a meeting and we can chat through some details to make sure getting ready photos through the formal dances are at least covered! On average most TJP couples have 9 hours of coverage and spend on average of $5,300. All day wedding coverage is also available.

I love to travel! It's especially fun to shoot in new places! If you have a place you would like to use for your session just send me a message and I am sure we could make it work! If you are unsure about a location to use, no worries, just send me a message and I have a variety of neat places to use! As for weddings, I am very familiar with traveling for destination weddings! I do not charge for travel to back to my home state of Minnesota.

Engagement sessions are a great way for me to connect with you and your fiancé. It is a chance for us to get to know each other more before your big day! Engagement sessions can be personalized to fit your specific style. Whether it's going back to the place where you had your first date, going ice skating, to having a bonfire and making s'mores during the cold Minnesota winter, I love to customize each session! Engagement sessions are included in most of the wedding packages or they can be added. If you're interested in a "destination engagement session" please mention that in your inquiry and I will send information for that in my reply! Engagement sessions in Arizona receive a special discount.

I am totally comfortable to shoot by myself on a wedding day though I normally bring an assistant to help with gear and running small errands the day of. A second shooter may be added onto any wedding package! I have second shooters who have worked with me before knowing my style, what shots to get, and how to be beneficial the day of the wedding.

My 2024 & 2025 calendar are officially open for booking. I do take limited amount of weddings each year . As for portrait sessions, I usually book 1-2 months in advance. No problem if you need a last minute session - send me a message and I will see what I can do.

Yes! I do label myself as a Natural Light Photographer meaning I don't bring studio lights with me during outdoor photo sessions and would rather just use the light that is given. HOWEVER, I am capable of using a flash if need be. No worries if your venue has no natural light, I will use a flash and or video lights and it will still look great! Feel free to check out the Photo Blog on my site to visit some of the weddings I have photographed to see how I implement flash on the wedding day.

I love meeting with brides & grooms before booking to make sure we are a good fit, have the same vision for wedding photography for your special day, and just to chat about some of your wedding details. During this meeting I also walk through a wedding day timeline with you on how I would photograph your wedding if I were to be hired. I also send this timeline to you so you can reference in as you are planning your big event! This timeline will give you a good idea on how many hours of photography are needed for your wedding.

Once your photos are edited you will be able to access them via online gallery that will allow you to download the photos onto your computer or purchase prints directly from your gallery. Purchasing prints/products/albums are not required but the option is there just in case. Once you have downloaded your photos onto your computer you can print them from wherever you would like, though I would suggest staying away from printing at Target, Walmart, Walgreens, etc. I would recommend using Mpix.com or printing through your online gallery which uses WHCC and then is mailed right to your home.

Albums can be customized however you would like: color of the leather, type of fabric, etc. You and I will work together to make sure your album is exactly how you would like it. It is a very easy and fun process! Albums can also be added to any portrait session or any wedding package. There is also an option to design an album directly inside your online gallery! It is a very seamless process!
