I just want to genuinely say thank you for considering me to capture your story. If you’re reading this, that means you’ve found something in my work that resonates with you, and that means the world to me. It’s truly an honor to be asked to capture some of your most important memories!
"Having JoAnn as our wedding photographer was the best choice we made throughout all the planning."
Because your wedding day is one of the biggest days of your lives, finding the right photographer to document your day is so, so important.
I’m not the kind of photographer that’s going to stick you guys in a stiff, awkward pose and tell you to fake laugh at the camera. I believe your wedding photos should be more than that.
I want you to be able to FEEL your photos when you look at them so that it brings you right back to the moments that were captured every time you look through your photos.
I believe in capturing the little things. Like your man pulling your windblown hair back so he can give you the biggest kiss on the windiest day. Or the dirt stains on your dress, because that means you had one hell of a time on your wedding day. The two of you dancing in the rain because you can’t control the weather and it doesn’t matter anyway when you’re GETTING MARRIED!!!
So if you find beauty in the in-between moments and are down for an adventure, let’s do this!
Even though I photograph weddings all the time, I understand that your wedding day is one of the biggest days of your lives—one that deserves to be captured with care, attention, and dedication. As someone who has always cherished photographs and the memories they hold onto, I know how important my job is as your photographer.
I will pour my heart and soul into your day, making sure every special moment is documented in a way that feels true, beautiful, and uniquely yours
I will treat your wedding day as if it were my own, investing the same level of passion and attention to detail
I promise to capture the large moments, the small moments, and everything in-between

EXAMPLE TIMELINE
I send you a handful of sneak peeks within 24-72 hours, a preview gallery with around 100 sneak peeks within 14 days, and the final gallery within 4-12 weeks, so you can relive your big day all over again.
The big day! I document your day with intention and presence, allowing you to stay present while I take care of capturing the story.
We either meet up for coffee or hop on a phone call to discuss all the details of your day, run through the timeline together, and go over any questions you might have.
I create a wedding day timeline that allows for a natural flow as the day unfolds. If you have a wedding planner, I work with them directly so that you can relax knowing everything is taken care of.
I send over my planning resources, including questionnaires, my location guide, and my vendor referral list to help with the planning process.
Your date is secured with a signed contract & retainer. Once you're officially booked, you can reach out to me at any point for help or guidance, and I will make sure you feel supported every step of the way!
If you give notice 30 days prior that you need to reschedule, your retainer can be applied to a new date and a rescheduling fee will apply. If notice is given less than 30 days before, a new retainer will have to be put down for your new date. The retainer is non-refundable, so it will be forfeited if you cancel.
My turnaround time is 4-8 weeks for sessions and 4-12 weeks for weddings & elopements. I try my best to get them back to you as soon as possible because I know you're excited to see them! But I also make sure I have enough time to do a good job and am not rushing through the edits. Editing is half the magic!
I've developed a workflow that allows me to capture the day in a seamless & authentic way, so checklists can place limitations on the creative process. Inspiration is always great, but just know that we are going to create images that are unique to you. (I do like to have a family photo list for family photos, so I'll get that from you during the wedding prep!)
Yes, both! Your online gallery will be connected to a print store where you can order prints and design your own photo album directly through your gallery without even having to download the photos. I use a professional printing lab so the quality is top-notch while still offering affordable prices.
The ONLY reason I wouldn't be able to make it to your wedding is in the case of illness, medical emergency, family death, etc. If this were the case, l'd call in a trusted associate photographer that has a similar shooting style as me to photograph your wedding. I would still edit the photos and still be your photographer in every other sense of the word! If that option didn't work out then I would issue a refund according to our contract.
The passion behind what I do is capturing real, honest moments, and I want your pictures to bring back the memories from your big day when look back on them. With that being said, I keep the photoshopping to a minimum (basic skin touchups like removing pimples, scratches, bruises, removing distracting flyaways, etc.) so your photos accurately represent your day. For anything further, I do offer cosmetic edits at an additional cost per image.
