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

My husband and I are shy in front of the camera but she made us feel so comfortable. She did a great job of capturing all the moments and people we wanted her to capture in photos.

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 we can cover any lingering questions you may have.  If you think we're a great fit, we'll pencil you in and begin your onboarding process.

INITIAL CONSULT

We can't wait to work with you!  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. 

SECURE YOUR DATE

We'll begin learning about your vision, and once we have developed a plan that effectively aligns with your vision. From there we'll begin gathering inspiration to develop a visual mood board for your day. We work hand-in hand with your wedding planner to bring your dreams to reality. 

DESIGN PHASE

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.  I will work alongside your planner once I know your preferences to craft the perfect flow of your day.

TIMELINE CURATION

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.

your big day

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.

FAQ

While I am currently based in San Diego, California,  I happily photograph destination weddings across the country and internationally.

Where are you based?


Each event is unique. Wedding day quotes are customized to fit your specific needs. Full day coverage begins at $10,000. For a complete, custom estimate please reach out to me.

What are your rates?

The majority of my weddings are destination, and my travel fees vary according to the destination and lodging for your specific event. For destination events, I would be happy to jump on a consultation to learn the full scope of your destination plans, and put together a custom proposal. 

What are your travel fees?

We experience your day alongside you, organically. While a shot list is extremely powerful tool on your wedding day for family formals and a few important moments you're dreaming of, it is not necessary. We find the best way is to capture those moments organically, and convey an overall feel to your gallery, vs missing key moments with our heads down checking off a shot list. 

Do you take a shot list?

We have our eyes on every image we deliver, polishing the tiniest details to perfection. For this reason, we tend to play it safe and give the expectation of a 6-8 week turnaround on your wedding images. You will receive sneak peeks within a few days of your event, and a few more throughout the editing process.
