Question 1

Do you travel for weddings?

Accepted Answer

Yes!! Destinations farther than the Nashville area are quoted transparently. Flights and lodging built straight into your collection so there are zero surprises.

Question 2

How many photos will we receive?

Accepted Answer

Most full-day weddings come back with 600–800 fully edited images. I don't cap galleries. You get every single frame I'd be proud to deliver.

Question 3

When will we get our gallery?

Accepted Answer

Sneak peeks within a week so you can post them. Full gallery within eight weeks. Engagement sessions turn around in three. I know the wait is the hardest part, so I move fast.

Question 4

Do you have a second shooter?

Accepted Answer

I bring a trusted second photographer for weddings of 150+ guests, multi-location days, or anytime you want both partners covered simultaneously while you're getting ready. It's an option on every collection.

Question 5

What about engagement sessions?

Accepted Answer

Every wedding collection includes one, and honestly they're my favorite. They're the best way to feel comfortable in front of a camera before the wedding day, and most couples end up using the photos for save-the-dates.

Question 6

Do we get the digital files? Are they watermarked?

Accepted Answer

Yep. Full-resolution digital files, totally unwatermarked, with a personal print release. Your photos belong to you, not me.

Question 7

How do we book?

Accepted Answer

Send an inquiry below and I'll be in touch within 48 hours (usually faster, I'm a chronic phone-checker). Dates are held with a signed contract and a 30% retainer.

Question 8

How much does a wedding photographer cost in Nashville?

Accepted Answer

Nashville wedding photographers typically range from about $3,500 to $8,000 for full-day coverage, with most experienced full-gallery photographers landing between $4,500 and $6,500. My wedding collections start at $4,000 and include an engagement session, full unwatermarked gallery delivery, and a print release. Elopements and micro-weddings are priced separately for a shorter coverage window.

Question 9

How far in advance should I book a wedding photographer in Nashville?

Accepted Answer

For Nashville, Franklin, and Brentwood weddings, most couples book their photographer 9 to 14 months in advance. Peak-season Saturday dates in October and May are the fastest to fill, sometimes over a year out. If your date is inside 6 months I still respond fast, and short-notice weddings do get scheduled. The sooner you inquire, the more likely the date is still open.

Question 10

What is the difference between documentary and editorial wedding photography?

Accepted Answer

Documentary wedding photography captures your day as it actually unfolds, with minimal direction, and prioritizes real reactions and in-between moments. Editorial wedding photography leans into intentional light, composition, and a magazine-like feel, often with more directed portraits. My coverage blends both. Documentary through the ceremony and reception, editorial through portraits and the details you spent months planning.

Question 11

Where do you shoot engagement sessions around Nashville?

Accepted Answer

Popular Nashville-area engagement locations include downtown Nashville rooftops, Radnor Lake, The Parthenon at Centennial Park, downtown Franklin, and private-farm settings across Williamson County. Most couples pick one location tied to their story, or two if they want an outfit change. I help scout based on what your gallery already looks like and the light window that fits your schedule.

Question 12

Do you photograph elopements or micro-weddings?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Middle Tennessee elopements and micro-weddings under 50 guests get their own coverage collection with a shorter shoot window, typically 3 to 6 hours, and a full unwatermarked gallery. Elopements at courthouses, private homes, or scenic Middle Tennessee locations are welcome. Travel is quoted transparently if the elopement is outside the Nashville metro area.
