FAQ

Anyone can take a picture these days... nearly everyone has a decent camera, or at the least, a camera phone. But there is a difference... let me tell you why.

When words fail to tell your story, a professional can artistically compose a stunning image with intent, balance, and design in mind.

When the conditions are challenging, a professional has the technical ability, speed, and accuracy to light and time their compositions. 

To create a superb photograph, a professional photographer knows where to go for great backgrounds and what time of the day to go there for the most flattering light. A professional understands complicated camera functions, exposure settings, and how to best use their camera accessories and off camera lighting. And in those fleeting moments when the light is just right, and the expression or pose is angled just perfectly, a professional must have the eye to compose and the quick reflexes to get the shot. A professional enhances the photographs using professional photo editing software. Often there is so much to this craft that is overlooked because our market has over-saturated in the digital age. But it's the details in photography that are truly important... the stages before, during and after your photo shoot are all critical to the final product.

I offer a wide range of photography services, including wedding photography, portrait photography, family photography, event photography, and more.

Booking a photography session is easy. Simply reach out to me through the website, email, or phone, and let me know the type of session you're interested in. I'll guide you through the process, discuss your requirements, and find a date and time for your session.

Absolutely! I believe that the location plays a significant role in capturing unique and personalized photographs. Whether it's at your home, a scenic outdoor location, or a venue of your choice, I'm open to capturing your portraits in a place that holds meaning to you.

Please note travel fees incur beyond my region (Kelowna, & West Kelowna, BC).

The duration of a photo session varies depending on the type and scope of the project. Portrait sessions typically range from 45 minutes to 2 hours, while events and weddings can span several hours. Minis are usually 10-15 minutes.

We understand the anticipation of seeing your final photos. Our editing process typically takes 1-2 weeks, depending on the volume of images and the complexity of editing required. We prioritize quality and attention to detail to deliver exceptional images that exceed your expectations.

If the weather doesn't cooperate on the day of an outdoor shoot, we can discuss alternatives such as rescheduling the session or finding an indoor location. I want to ensure the best possible outcome for your photos, and I'm flexible in adapting to unforeseen circumstances.

Prior to the wedding, I will contact you and from here, we will get to know each other! We will discuss the "must haves" photos, your wedding timeline, discussing important details such as venue and locations, etc. On your wedding day, all I want to capture is the feelings, the mood, the emotions, the calm and crazy moments and all the details that make your wedding unique.

Your will receive an online gallery link with all your photos within 6-12 weeks for weddings. I will typically deliver a couple sneak peeks within the first 48 hours!

For other photography sessions, your photos will be delivered within 3-4 weeks.

You can download all the photos from the gallery. You are also able to share them in high quality of web resolution or order prints directly. For social media sharing, I recommend uploading them in the web resolution so your platforms don't compress the photos and alter the quality.

It all depends on your package you have selected. Please click the investment link in the menu for more information.

Please keep in mind, I always choose quality rather than quantity. There is an option to purchase more photos, if applicable.

I like my final photographs to be true-to-color, crisp and clean, but enhanced to help elevate the subjects in focus. I also enjoy a warmer edit from time to time, or sometimes can dabble in some moody edits as well.

I always shoot in the largest RAW format available, however I deliver .jpg (Jpeg) files, as they are ready to use for just about any need in print or online.

My post process editing is a part of my workflow process, to create an image that's truly indicative of my style, therefore due to copyright, I do not provide RAW files.

I currently shoot with a mirrorless, full-frame sensor camera, the Sony A7IV. 

The lenses I typically use are Sony and Sigma. 

The speedlite flash I use is the Godox A860iii.

My favorite lens is my wedding workhorse, Sony G Master II 70-200 f2.8. 

I also am in love with my Sigma 24-70mm f2.8 and Sigma 85mm f1.4.

I recommend wearing what you feel most comfortable and most confident in- it certainly shows in photos if you are uncomfortable. If you need some guidance, please feel free to contact me and I can provide you with some guides and suggestions.
