Weddings are typically reserved twelve to eighteen months in advance, particularly for peak season (April – October). Portrait, family, and celebration commissions usually need four to eight weeks' notice.

Yes. I photograph throughout the Blue Ridge Mountains and accept a number of destination commissions each year across the United States, Europe, and the Caribbean. Travel is quoted transparently within your proposal.

03Will you personally photograph our wedding?

Always. Every wedding is photographed by me, supported by a trusted associate photographer and assistant who have worked alongside me for years.

04When will we receive our photographs?

A curated preview arrives within seventy-two hours. Complete wedding galleries are delivered within eight weeks, and portrait and family galleries within three weeks, each hand-finished in the studio.
