It's time for more pre-wedding sessions!

Thinking about a boudoir session or a bridal portrait? We can photograph these up until the week of your wedding!

Interested in more than just an engagement session?

There are a number of wedding-related sessions that our clients regularly include. From formal rehearsal dinners to intimate boudoir sessions, we can do it all!

FAQ
  • Other than the engagement session and wedding, what else do you photograph?

    Often, our wedding clients include bridal portraits, boudoir sessions, and rehearsal dinner coverage.

  • Can I add extra sessions to my collection later?

    Absolutely. You can choose to bundle these sessions into your initial collection, or you can add them later if you choose.

  • Do I need a photographer at my rehearsal dinner? What about a videographer?

    It really depends on what you’re trying to document. Do you want to capture all the details your family put into the rehearsal dinner, or take photos with all of your cousins and extended family without taking so much time on your wedding day? Then including a photographer is a great idea. Are you planning to have all of your speeches and toasts at the rehearsal dinner? Then I would definitely consider bringing your filmmaker, so you can have high-quality video of all of the wonderful toasts your friends and family make in your honor. Is your rehearsal dinner a traditional meal in a restaurant for immediate family only? Then there’s probably not much for us to photograph or film, and we recommend applying that money to something else (like additional album pages, maybe!).

  • Someone else is planning the rehearsal dinner, but I’m booking photography - how should I handle that?

    We can work directly with whomever is planning your rehearsal dinner and is interested in photography. Just give our contact information to the person planning, and we can handle it 100% from there. Often, when we photograph rehearsal dinners, we have a separate contract with someone other than yourself, so you don’t have to be the middleman. If you would rather add it into your main wedding contract, of course we can do that too.

What’s a bridal session?

A Southern tradition, the bridal session is a lovely way to celebrate being a bride (plus, it’s a great excuse to try out your look and make sure it’s exactly what you envisioned). Schedule your hair and makeup trial for the same day and it’s a win-win situation!

FAQ
  • My mom wants me to schedule a bridal session; what exactly is this?

    A bridal session is a portrait session of you, wearing your wedding gown (and veil, etc), before the wedding. They are wonderful because they allow us to spend a lot of time photographing just you (while that time can be very limited on a wedding day).

  • How far before my wedding should I schedule my bridal session?

    Typically we photograph these 6-8 weeks before the wedding after you get your alterations completed.

  • I’d like a large framed print to display at my reception. Can I order this through you?

    Absolutely! We are a full-service studio, offering fine prints, canvases, and custom framing. We will make sure your products are absolutely perfect before delivering them to you, and we guarantee their quality.

Okay, what’s the deal with boudoir sessions?

This is a fun pre-wedding session that has gotten very popular, and we adore photographing them. It’s a time to focus just on yourself, in a way that is empowering and joyful. It’s like playing dress up for grown-ups!

FAQ
  • I’m intrigued but also terrified of shooting a boudoir session - is this a sign that I should skip it?

    EVERYONE is nervous when they arrive at their boudoir session. We promise it will be fun! There’s generally a lot of laughter, a little champagne, and a custom playlist to help you relax (spoiler alert, there’s a lot of Beyonce). We photograph these at our private studio, which is a fun and welcoming environment to help you relax. Boudoir sessions range from innocently flirtatious to full-on sexy, so there’s no need to try to be something that feels unnatural. Let your comfort during the session determine what you’re comfortable with. We will never, ever, ever pressure you into a pose or outfit that makes you feel uncomfortable - we promise!

  • I don’t see boudoir photos of your website; do many people do these?

    Yes! We probably have a client in our studio for a boudoir session every week or two. We don’t post boudoir photos anywhere, EVER, without direct permission from our clients (but if you love your photos and don’t mind them being published, please let us know as we’re always a little sad that we can’t share such gorgeous photos!).

  • What do most people do with their boudoir photos?

    Most of our clients choose to order a “little black book” featuring their favorite photos. This is a great, unexpected gift you can give your partner on your wedding weekend, and they become an instant heirloom you can look back through in thirty years and admire your confidence (and maybe also recognize that the “flaws” we see in ourselves are more about ourselves, and less about being “flaws”).
