The
PROCESS

Garfield Conservatory elopement
each elopement includes the following:
ONLINE GALLERY
All galleries will look like this one if you wanted to see how your photographs will be delivered.
CONSULTATIONS
Each couple will receive a number of phone calls to plan your elopement and go over your timeline.
HAND EDITING
Your photographs will be edited by a person rather than ai technology. Human eyes are looking at your files, exposing them, and color balancing the preset we apply.
MOOD BOARD COLLABORATION
In order to best visualize your ideas, I'll request that we collaborate on a mood board with all your ideas for your photographs. What story do you want to tell? What outfits should you wear? Where should be go? All of these details can be answered by creating a visual aid like a mood board.
When should we book with you?
Most folks book out a couple months ahead of time, some folks will set their date sooner and book then. It all depends on when you're ready, but my advice for my own scheduling is to get in touch at least 3-6 months in advance.
There is a $50 travel fee for Chicago and a $50 parking fee for sessions downtown. I'm based in the northwest suburbs and it can be a longer drive for me to get downtown. Anywhere within one hour of my location is fair game. If you fall outside of this, there may be a travel fee.
ARE THERE ANY TRAVEL FEES?
Do you help us pose?
I'm going to be giving you prompts to play out with your partner on camera as well as give instruction on where to put your hands or how to tilt your head. Sometimes my best work is just candid, side moments where ya'll let loose. I'm able to kindle those moments with my little prompts.
Good question! I'm able to turn things around quite quickly depending on the season you're inquiring during. High volume months are going to result in slower turnaround times for all clients. But for most bookings, 2-3 weeks is the average span of time you'll get your photographs in.
When do we get our photographs back?
