You've perused the website, you've seen my work, and you like what you see - Now what? First, we set up a call to ensure we're a mutually great fit. In this call we'll get to know one another, I'll ask about your vision for your big day, and I'll answer any lingering questions you might have.

SEcure Your Date

Once your date is officially reserved, an email will be sent with vendor recommendations & guidance for photo-related questions. To reserve your date, a contract and 50% retainer are required. I'm happy to serve as a resource for any photography-related questions you might have regarding timing, details, and layout for your big day.

Engagement Session

Not only do these sessions allow you to get comfortable in front of the camera, they also give you the opportunity to showcase your personalities in a more casual setting that is significant to the two of you. I've created an entire page dedicated to outfit tips, location ideas, timing considerations and more!

Timeline Curation

About 6 weeks before the wedding, we'll start chatting about timeline specifics, special details, family formal shot lists, special traditions and anything else we should know about your big day. The sooner the better on this! I will work alongside your planner once I know your preferences to craft the perfect flow of your day.

Your Big Day

Once the day arrives, you get to relax, enjoy the moment, and trust that I've got it handled! I prefer to document the day organically, and offer up a little posing as needed. My favorite part about wedding days is carving out time before and after photos so that you and your loved one can enjoy some genuine, quiet moments alone together.

Image Delivery

Within a few days of your wedding, you'll receive sneak peeks for social media sharing! You can expect the remaining images delivered via an online gallery within about 6-8 weeks of your wedding. At that time, we'll also go over details about preserving your images through tangible heirlooms like prints and albums.

Monterey Wedding At The Carmel Mission

Ryan & Jamie

"Mandy has such a kind heart and an eye for the beauty in all things, so her photos turn out better than you could ever imagine! She was easy to work with and exceeded my expectations as a photographer. She stepped in to help in any way she could during the ceremony and reception to create a seamless timeline of events. She made sure the bride and groom had a moment alone to take in the magic of the day and captured moments we thought would only be left to our imagination."

Hilton La Jolla WEdding

Melissa & Dave

"Mandy is incredibly talented! I love her light and airy style and am SO happy with the way our engagement and wedding photos turned out. Mandy is warm and fun, and made us feel totally comfortable and not awkward at all when posing for pictures. She captured so many beautiful moments and did not miss one important thing in our gallery. I think her pictures speak for themselves, but to top it off, Mandy was absolutely great to work with from the moment we hired her. Thank you, Mandy!"
