Q&A
What is your photography style?
My style is natural, storytelling-driven, and light-focused, capturing emotions and the little details that make each moment unique.
Do you travel for elopements or proposals?
Yes! I love exploring new locations. Travel fees apply depending on the destination.
Do you photograph LGBTQ+ couples?
Absolutely. I celebrate love in all forms and ensure every couple feels comfortable and valued.
Do you provide guidance on posing?
Yes! I direct couples naturally to capture authentic, flattering moments.
How far in advance should we book?
Ideally 1 month before for City Hall or elopements, and 1-2 weeks before for proposals. But for those last minute bookings, it depends on my schedule. Contact me as soon as possible.
What is your booking process?
Reach out via my contact form or email, also feel free to DM on my IG for faster conversation. We’ll discuss your vision, confirm the date, and then secure your session with a signed agreement and deposit.
What is your cancellation policy?
Deposits are typically non-refundable, but I’m happy to reschedule in case of emergencies.
Do you photograph surprise proposals?
That is what I am specialized. We discuss timing, location, and cues so I blend in and capture the moment naturally.
Can you suggest proposal locations in the city?
Yes, I know iconic and hidden gems in Chicago that create beautiful backdrops for your story.
Do you capture both photos and video?
Yes, I offer videography service on any packages. My wife is professional photographer as well, and when it comes to both photo and video we just team up.
Do we need a permit for elopement photos?
Some locations require permits; I’ll guide you through the process.
Do you offer packages or custom pricing?
Both! I have set packages and can create a custom experience based on your needs.
How early do you arrive?
I arrive 10-15 minutes early to scout the best spots, adjust lighting, and ensure a smooth experience.
Will we receive sneak peeks before the full gallery?
Yes! I share highlights soon after the shoot so you can relive the moment quickly.
