Upon inquiry, I will reach out to answer any questions you may have and we will set up a time to chat. Once things are booked and we are official, we will begin planning all of the fun details of your engagement or bridal session!
.
The fun begins! After working together to choose the perfect locations, we will photograph your engagement or bridal session. This is a great time to get to know one another - I bet we will feel like old friends by the end of it!
.
Within 3 months of your wedding day, I will send you a questionnaire to fill out that goes over all of the details of your day. This will help me develop a timeline and learn what is most important for your wedding photography needs.
.
When we are just a few weeks out, we will plan a Zoom or phone chat to finalize timelines and answer last-minute questions. That way, you can wake up on your wedding day entirely stress free and ready to marry the person of your dreams!
.
The big day is finally here!! My goal on your wedding day is to ensure that it is as fun, easy and stress-free for you as possible. Myself and my second photographer will be there to capture every moment, so that you have memories to last a lifetime.
.
You can expect to receive a full sneak peek gallery within 1 week and your final gallery within 3-4 weeks! You will have full printing and downloading rights to your images as well as access to our print and album shop.
.
You will typically find my talented husband Henry behind the lens as my second photographer! Having a second photographer will help ensure that every detail of your day is captured from different perspectives and angles.
An engagement session gives the two of you the chance to practice being in front of my camera, making you both so much more comfortable for the real thing. Your wedding portraits will look natural and relaxed as a result!
The more time you allow, the more relaxed you will feel! I help all of my couples build wedding day timelines to help determine how much time they will need. I offer different collections based on how much coverage time you would like.
Do you charge a travel fee?
A.I currently do not charge any travel fees for the wedding day. All travel is built into your wedding collections!
Do you shoot destination weddings?
A.Yes! I have special packages for destination weddings & would LOVE to be your photographer.
How much time should I book you for?
A.More coverage time allows for a more relaxed pace and ensures that all the special moments of your day are captured.
With that being said, if everything will be taking place at one venue and you want a piece of each part of your day captured - 8 hours is typically enough, but your timeline will be more relaxed with 10 hours. If your ceremony and reception are at separate locations, I always recommend 10 hours.
If you don't care to have any of the "getting ready" portion of your day captured - or you don't mind skipping out on reception dancing photos, the 6 hour collection may be perfect for you.
Do you photograph elopements?
A.I LOVE photographing elopements, both locally and destination elopements. Please contact me for pricing.
Are you fully licensed and insured?
A.Absolutely! As a professional photographer, I am fully licensed and insured, giving you peace of mind that you’re in safe, reliable hands.
Can we do an engagement session AND a bridal session?
A.My 8 and 10 hour collections include either an engagement or a bridal session. However, you are welcome and encouraged to book me for both shoots. I offer discounts to my wedding clients who want to add another type of session in addition to their included session.
Can we add additional time on the day of the wedding?
A.While your wedding coverage includes the time specified in the chosen package, we will most likely be able to offer additional time at a rate of $425 per hour on your wedding day.

"I searched for a while trying to find the right photographer for my wedding May 14th 2022. I found Julia on a FB group. I looked though her profile and reached out to her. She responded very quickly and I went ahead and booked her. Her and her husband traveled from Cary NC to Winston Salem to do my wedding. I was so impressed with how profession they both were and how my pictures turned out to be way more beautiful than I ever expected!! I highly recommend Julia and her husband Henry!"
