Yaritza (Yuh-Ritz-Uh.…something like that..)
Colón (Cologne) Don’t overthink it.
I have both liability and equipment insurance. Many venues require that vendors have this – or they will not be allowed to work on the property. My general liability policy is through The Hartford covered up to $2,000,000. Please let me know if you need me to email my certificate to your venue.
(Even if your venue does not require this, you should absolutely make sure your selected vendors have it, regardless. You want to make sure that if anything goes wrong – it will be covered by the correct party.)
Mostly. Even though I don’t post much else I occasionally work on a variety of projects, though those are usually done in the winter months since the rest of the year is so busy. If you are looking for a different type of session feel free to reach out, and if I am not available I can try to get a referral for you.
For any vendor, I advise couples to book them as soon as they know that’s who they want so they don’t get snatched up by someone else! Booking is VERY sporadic – some people book more than a year in advance, others can get lucky and book in six months or less. No professional will hold a date without a retainer and signed agreement – so make sure you get both of those in once you know you want someone.
I limit myself to 20 full weddings a year, and a few elopements. I do not keep taking on weddings just for the sake of making more money. I have my happy number and I try to spread it out evenly between the big weddings and intimate ones. (and lets be honest – I value my own down time as well.)
If I am not available, I will be happy to give you recommendations for other photographers.
I’d say about 75% of the time its just me. If your wedding falls into certain parameters where a second photographer would be beneficial – we can make that happen.
Nope! I made the kinda scary decision to quit my “normal” job years ago when I was just 23 and focus on photo full time. It paid off and my full attention is on this. I have worked hard over the years to keep doing what I genuinely enjoy.
Absolutely! The majority of my weddings are in New England and the Tri-State areas but I’ve photographed and traveled specifically for weddings in over 14 states, on both coasts and in between, and Puerto Rico. I’ve traveled multiple times domestically and internationally, so travel is not a problem and my passport is ready.
When you reach out to me with your date and location I will immediately send you my pricing link. I will not try to get you to schedule a meeting before sending you info like some vendors try to do. I don’t want either of us wasting our time.
Because I travel all over for weddings, pricing is not one size fits all so its more complicated to try to fit every possibility into one webpage. For example, a winter elopement in Central Massachusetts is going to be far different than a wedding on a summer date in NYC. Or a Peak Fall wedding in the mountains of New Hampshire will be different than a spring wedding in Downtown Providence. You get the idea!
It depends on your wedding day, but a typical wedding can expect atleast 800+ photographs. Don’t worry, if there is more – I wont hold back from you! I’m focused on capturing the story of the day and having a variety of photos, not limiting what you get.
ALWAYS! It’s not uncommon for me to have 3+ cameras strapped to my holsters throughout the day, and I always have backup nearby. My digital cameras have Dual Memory Card Slots, so there are always two copies of the images being saved and less chance of anything going wrong with the files.
Yes, I do shoot film. However, I do not base my entire workflow on it. It’s used for fun and because we all like nostalgia. I take images on whatever 35mm or medium format I have on me at the moment, and/or a few polaroids during your wedding day. Those scans will be added to your gallery delivery at no extra cost to you as they are apart of the experience.
Less fine art, and more point and shoot fun.
