Frequently

Asked Questions

WHY DID YOU BECOME A PHOTOGRAPHER?

Wedding Photography was one of the best discoveries of my life. It takes me to amazing places and gives me the opportunity to meet great people and make lifetime friends. I knew I was meant to be a photographer 20 years ago when I developed my first B&W photo in the darkroom. Today my darkroom is my computer because I photograph digitally, but I still feel extremely emotional and grateful every time I capture an intimate moment between bride and groom or mother and daughter that can’t be recreated. 

WHAT KIND OF EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE?

I use the highest quality professional Canon cameras and lenses. I always bring backup equipment to photograph your wedding.

WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED?

I’m a wedding photographer based in Chicago, but I’m available to photograph weddings anywhere in the world. I provide engagement, wedding, and portrait photography. For destination weddings, pricing is customized depending on the location and specific needs of the bride and groom.

HOW CAN I book YOU FOR MY WEDDING DATE?

A non-refundable deposit and a contract are required.

DO YOU OFFER WEDDING ALBUMS?

Yes, I offer wedding books made in Italy by Graphistudio. I like Graphistudio because they offer a variety of materials and customizations. In order to guarantee uniqueness and exclusivity, their covers are all handmade based on the choices and aesthetic sensibility of the client. They pay close attention to the finishing and use refined materials and seamless binding that lays flat upon opening. 

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM YOU ON MY WEDDING DAY?

I will photograph your wedding, accompanied by a second photographer who will photograph the groom getting ready and provide a second angle on the ceremony and reception. We are entirely focused on you and your wedding throughout the day and are always looking to capture the details and visual moments that tell your story
