If you're looking for a photographer that actually gives a damn about you and brings the good vibes and energy with every interaction - it's me, I'm your girl!
Having a rock-solid connection is so important to me. And I want you to have trust in me as well. Not just as a vendor but as a person who is literally by your side through thick + thin. I love chatting for hours and hearing all about how you got to where you are, what brought you together and what your dreams and goals are - not only for your wedding but in life.
You should feel confident in knowing that you have someone cheering you on and helping guide you through this journey. Most importantly - I want to give you an experience that is centered around you and your true selves together. Because that's what really matters.
It's the in-between moments when you're not looking, not thinking, and just being yourselves. It's family members wiping away tears while you share your vows and friends raising a glass to your next chapter. It's the memories and moments that continue way past your wedding day. And I want you fully present, to experience every single moment. I'll be right there supporting and cheering you on while capturing how it all felt. So in ten, twenty, even fifty years from now you can go back and relive it all over again.
During the time of booking a non-refundable retainer is always required to lock in your date.
Lifestyle sessions are 50% of the total price, with the remaining balance due the day of. If a reschedule is needed, the balance is due on your new date.
Weddings + Elopements are 25% of the total proposal amount with the remainder due 2 weeks before.
If needed, payment plans are always available!
How does payment work?
ABSOLUTELY!! I'm a total Type A when it comes to planning and it's one of my favorite things to assist couples with. Keep in mind though, I am NOT your full fledged wedding planner/coordinator in any way, but I do help with day-of timelines and basic planning surrounding your photo needs and wants.
Do you help in the planning process?
Easy peasy - fill out the contact form with as much info as you can! Once I get your inquiry, I'll start by making sure I'm available and contact you back within 48 hours to set up a time to chat more via Zoom. It's super important to make sure we're a good fit before anything else! If we vibed and are a match made in haven we'll make things official with a retainer payment and signed contract.
how do we book you?
I like to get galleries signed, sealed, and delivered AS SOON AS I POSSIBLY CAN! However, this totally depends on the time of year and season I'm in. I do promise that all galleries be sent within 2-3 weeks for lifestyle session, and 4-6 weeks for weddings and elopements.
When do we receive our photos?
Second photographers are amazing. And I will always recommend adding one with a guest count higher than 130 and/or a wedding party larger than 8 on either side.
Having a second photographer be apart of your wedding day not only helps document family reactions that I might miss when focusing on you and your partner. But they give a totally different view of your day. They can also be there to capture your cocktail hour and sweet, little candid moments while we're taking photos away from the crowd (usually during sunset).
Do we need a second photographer?
I will not secure a date on my calendar unless I'm 100% positive I can be there! If and I mean IF something absolutely crazy and uncontrollable happens and I cannot be there, I will send a photographer I know and trust to take my place. All images will still be kept, sorted through and edited by me so you're still getting the same style and experience you deserve.
What happens if you can't be at our wedding?
No worries - I promise! Since I primarily travel for weddings, there's a pretty good chance that I haven't been to your venue. And that's okay! I'll be entering with fresh eyes and a whole new perspective.
For every wedding I like to arrive early the day of, that way I can check out the location and see the space put together. Doing this gives me a chance to find the best lighting + locations for your photos. I'll even stop by to say 'hey' and check in to make sure you're feeling goooood and have everything you need before even taking out my camera gear.
What if you haven't shot at our venue?
"From the moment we started working with her, she made the entire process feel effortless. Cheyenne did an incredible job with our engagement photos, and we were absolutely thrilled with how they turned out. It gave us complete confidence going into our wedding day, knowing we were in such capable hands ... "
Amanda + Mike
"We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding and engagement photos!"
"Fast forward to our wedding day - she was nothing short of amazing!! She got there early to check out the venue first and then was right on it with photos of the guys and then the girls! Cheyenne captured amazing photos from every single part of our day. She was amazing getting all of our family pictures done after the ceremony too! She also bustled my dress for me before the reception with ease and so quickly! This was beyond helpful and so kind of her as it wasn’t something she had to do, but she was so happy to do it! She was with us for almost 12 hours on our wedding day and had a smile on her face the entire time. She is so genuine and amazing at what she does. We are so thankful that we booked her because she’s the absolute best!"
Monica + Nick
"She is so sweet and makes sure she is not just your photographer but a friend too. Cheyenne sent us some surprises in the mail along the way which just show how thoughtful she is. At our engagement shoot she made sure to bring our pup treats. On wedding day she was calming and wrangled our family and bridal party for photos like a pro ... "
Amber + Marco
"She is a calming voice in all of the chaos. She is encouraging, supportive and professional. When we first met with Cheyenne, we talked candidly of what our ideal day would be and she was our biggest advocate to make sure it was exactly that, and did a beautiful job of capturing it ... "
Shannon + Ryan
"We could not have gotten through this day without her friendship, guidance, and down to earth mentality. She knew what we envisioned and she made it happen. Her work is beautiful, she is one of the most amazing people you will meet, and she was able to wrangle 12 groomsmen ... "
