frequently asked questions

What if i want unedited images?

Unfortunately I do not give out any Raw or Unedited photos to clients. The way I shoot is curated to the way I edit. In may ways just sending those photos is sending unfinished work, and isnt an accurate representation of Little Mountain Studio, therefor I do not share them.
However, if you’re a photographer I will share the raws with you if you wish.

How many images will i get im my gallery?

Each package has a guaranteed amount however I choose to not cap my clients galleries. Meaning you get all the good photos of your session for no additional charge

What is a client closet?

A curated collection of gowns that are free for my clients to use! Most of these gowns fit sizes S-XL and are maternity friendly. They truly elevate the photos on an artistic level and I promise you will not regret using one!

I also have a small collection of wedding gowns that can be used for elopements, vow renewals, anniversary photos, or styled shoots!

What is your turnaround time?

Typically it goes
Sessions: 3-6 weeks
Weddings 7-10 weeks

It can vary depending on if I am in busy season or not. I work constantly to get them out within these timeframes!

Best way to get in touch?

The most efficient way to get in touch with me would be to fill out my inquiry form on my website. It allows all of my questions to be asked + answered so I can see how to serve your needs best!

You can send me a DM but sometimes they get lost or instagram shows them to me weeks after they're sent.

Where are you based and do you travel?
Or is it more common for clients travel to you?

I'm based out of Brookings, OR/ Crescent City, CA 
Honestly most clients do choose to come to me because I know so many magical places in this area. However I absolutely love to see the world and capture your stories in the places that mean most to you. So YES I do travel but travel costs will apply 1 hour away from where i’m based

How do payments work?

Depending on your package chosen, a non refundable retainer is paid to hold your spot. The remaining about is due the day of (but before) your session.
 1 week before for weddings + elopements.
 If retainer is is paid but balance is still owed after session, I will not begin working on your photos until balance finalized.

Frequently asked questions

I try do be flexible because I understand things come up! I allow one reschedule for sessions. But if you choose to cancel your session you will lose the paid retainer.

what if i need to reschedule?

I'm down rain or shine! The PNW loves to suprise us with fog, wind, rain. You can’t always trust the weather apps around here. 
I’m always down to move the session if we need and it works for both of our schedules. But just know im always down to create some art in the rain!

what if if it rains?

frequently asked questions

Why aren’t weddings, elopements, and sessions priced the same hourly?

Traditional, microwedding or elopement... whats the difference?

How to Travel Fees Work

i don't see a wedding package that fits my needs?
Are your prices negotiable? 

Elopements are you + your lover. Intimate, spontaneous celebrations of love. Elopements offer couples the chance to focus solely on each other without all the distractions. Sometimes parents + siblings join if they choose to have a ceremony. It’s often start with the tail end of getting ready, a first look, a short ceremony, us adventuring around and could end with a cliff side tablescape for at dinner.

My prices are firm. Price is a reflection of the wedding day alone. The time I am there + the time it takes to edit your images. Any add on’s listed in each package are something I include for free, and choosing not to use them, or requesting less images will not change the overall price. 

I do have a few example packages but I am open to creating in between packages like 6 hours of coverage or if you are wanting more coverage like full wedding weekend documentation

I’m sure you can imagine that every destination has different costs + requirements. 
ex: Flights, accommodations, do I need to stay at a specific resort, do I need a rental car.
If its somewhere I can drive to it would cover gas + a room if I need to stay the night (over 4 hours away)

Before contracts are signed + deposits are in place we will have discussed a flat rate for the wedding + travel. That way you know the total amount due and there will be no hidden fees popping up anywhere.

The deposit required for destination packages is
 50% of the cost of travel + the initial retainer

I will do all my own booking in terms of flights + stays to alleviate additional stress on the both of us. Accommodations and travel will be booked within 2 weeks of signing the contract and paying the retainer.

Weddings are a different beast. You truly wear so many hats on this day. The responsibility to capture the most important day of someone's life in a natural and artistic way is in no comparison to an hour long date night session with your family or lover. There is truly no room for mistakes. Elopements and micro-weddings fall in between. 

Micro + Traditional are all other celebrations of love. Usually 10+ guests are  attending. These celebrations are always unique based on each couple but usually includes getting ready, ceremony, group photos, reception space, a group dinner, and dancing.
