let’s talk cost

I like to keep things as simple as possible. I believe in what I do and feel most comfortable giving you as much as possible to remember the day by. That’s why there aren’t any additional upgrades or anything like that, only the amount of time & people needed to accurately document your day.

Are you a fellow artist? I’d love to barter it up! Let me know what you’ve got and we could work out some sort of discount/trade system.

Options

Additional photographer - $1,400

To begin, I don’t feel the need to add on another photographer outside of a couple very specific scenarios. The first being if you want coverage of two different events happening in two different places at the same time, i.e. getting ready separately. The second is if you are having a large, traditional wedding with large, traditional bridal parties. Having a 2nd pair of eyes/point of view is helpful in documenting everything. Otherwise I’m more than comfortable photographing alone.

Travel - $500

For the weddings a bit off the beaten path/outside of northern CA I charge a flat $500. Straightforward and simple.

Film - $800

While I do shoot a bit of film at every wedding I go to (it’s fun!) this option just ensures you get a solid set of both film and digital photography. This is some of the most artisanal work I create, self scanning and working to make something that feels homemade. Digital is great for producing perfect images, I believe film is best used as a messy, organic media. I lean heavily into light leaks and flaring, most of the cameras that create my favorite work have been cheap plastic toys. This is not a vogue, editorial styling; rather something trying to document how a memory feels in all its imperfections.

Currently offering 120 & 35mm film stock, if you are a fan of the medium format and want a heavier presence of that expect a slightly smaller gallery due to roll size. Film galleries run between 100-200 images.

Additional hour - $600

No worries if your schedule is running behind and you need some wiggle room on the day of, but if you know you want to add on additional hours from the go feel free to add them on. Usually 50-100 images are delivered per hour.

Super 8 Film - $2,200

Just want a classic film in the same vein as your grandparents? Super 8 is for you! Each super 8 package includes up to two rolls of film which is then edited into a 2-4 minute video, you can check out samples over on the films page.

  • Only constantly. I bounce around norcal most weeks, if you’d like to drag me farther I charge a flat $500 for interstate and $750 for outer.

  • Currently I’m happy to meet over facetime or zoom, I tend to be free most Mondays-Thursdays, shoot willing.

  • This is the one time every member of both your families will be in the same space together, to not capture that would be a crime. Typically I like to take big group shots right after your ceremony, but I also try to get photos of everyone naturally throughout the day as well. 

  • Absolutely, if your venue needs it let me know, I'll get them a copy asap. 

  • Only of the family groups you want photos taken with! 

  • I like to deliver full photo galleries within four weeks, video galleries within eight. None of my workflow is outsourced, I’m a bit too obsessive for that, so delivery time varies throughout the year.
