INVESTMENT

WHEN YOU CHOOSE TO INVEST IN PHOTOGRAPHY FOR YOUR ELOPEMENT OR WEDDING DAY, YOU'RE NOT JUST BOOKING SOMEONE TO TAKE PICTURES, YOU'RE PRESERVING THE STORY OF ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT DAYS OF YOUR LIFE. THE TRUTH IS, YOUR FLOWERS WILL FADE, THE MUSIC WILL STOP, AND THE DRESS WILL EVENTUALLY BE TUCKED AWAY, BUT YOUR PHOTOS WILL LIVE ON. THEY'LL BE THE TANGIBLE WAY YOU CAN RELIVE THOSE BUTTERFLIES, THOSE BELLY LAUGHS, AND THE THOSE QUIETS, SACRED MOMENTS YOU DIDN'T REALIZE WERE HAPPENING AT THE TIME. I BELIEVE PHOTOGRAPHY IS ONE OF THE MOST VALUABLE INVESTMENTS YOU CAN MAKE FOR YOUR DAY, BECAUSE IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT HOW IT LOOKED, IT'S ABOUT HOW IT FELT, AND THAT'S SOMETHING WORTH KEEPING FOREVER.

"A photograph is savoring life intensely, every hundredth of a second."

Marc Riboud

Premium wedding Album

Starting at $350

There’s something truly special about having your wedding photos in a luxury album. Instead of scrolling on a screen, you can hold your memories in your hands, beautifully printed, bound, and designed to last for generations. Every page is thoughtfully laid out and professionally finished, so all you have to do is enjoy. A custom album takes the stress off your shoulders and gives you a timeless heirloom, ready to be shared with loved ones today and cherished by your family for years to come.

Upgrade Your Included Engagement or Bridal Session

All wedding and elopement packages include The Glimpse session (perfect for engagement or bridal portraits). If you’d like more time, locations, or images, you’re welcome to upgrade to The Story or The Legacy, and you’ll only pay the price difference, not the full session cost.

Standard Ceremony Video

$550

Have your ceremony documented with a standard high-quality video add-on option. This is great for couples who want a basic video of the most essential part of their day without breaking the bank hiring a videographer. This can be an add-on for $550.

Want both and engagement and bridal portrait session?

Each wedding and elopement package includes your choice of either an engagement or bridal session. If you’d love to have both, you’re more than welcome to! Since one session is already included, you’d only be responsible for the cost of the additional session.

Expedited Editing

$1000

Want your wedding photos even sooner? With this add-on, I’ll prioritize your gallery and deliver your full wedding collection within 1 month instead of the standard turnaround time. Perfect for couples who can’t wait to relive their day.

External Hard drive

$300

Keeping your images on an external flash drive is one of the safest and most convenient ways to preserve your memories. Unlike online galleries that may expire, a flash drive gives you a physical copy you can access anytime without relying on the internet or logins. It’s portable, easy to store, and ensures your photos are backed up in a secure, lasting format, so you’ll always have your images ready to enjoy and share for years to come.

With this add-on, you’ll receive a custom flash drive containing all of your photos for easy access and safekeeping.

Day-After session

Add on a Day-After Session for the same price as The Glimpse, The Story, or The Legacy sessions.

It’s the perfect way to capture any photos we may have missed on your wedding day, without the time pressure or distractions. You’ll get to relax, dress back up, and create beautiful portraits in a more laid-back setting.

Polaroids

$350

Although I typically gift all newlyweds with a few small polaroids, you have the option to have 100 polaroids provided at the cost of $350

Luxe Flatlay

$355

The Luxe Flatlay ensures your details are photographed with extra care before the wedding day, saving you time and stress on the morning of. This add-on creates polished, editorial-style images of your invitations, jewelry, florals, and heirlooms; perfect for couples who love a refined, personalized touch.

See the BLOG for more information.

Add On another associate photographer giving you Two

~ $360

I will always have an associate photographer included within all of these wedding packages, but adding on another for a recommended six hours for approximately $360.00 is also an option for you. This addition allows us to be in two places at once—one photographer can focus on the couple while the other captures guests’ reactions, cocktail hour details, or behind-the-scenes moments. It also means more creative angles during the ceremony and reception, faster family formal groupings, and a fuller, more dynamic gallery overall. With two associates, nothing slips through the cracks, giving you an even richer story of your wedding day.

Curated Photobooth Experience

$325/hr

Enhance your celebration with a four-hour rental of our dreamy wooden oak photobooth. Timeless, elegant, and crafted to complement your wedding aesthetic beautifully with Golden Glimpses Photobooth.
