Professional Event Photography in Richmond, Virginia

Often, yes. If you need a priority preview set for social media, press, or internal communications, let me know before the event so I can plan the workflow around it.

Yes. Before the event, we will build a practical shot list around the moments that matter most: speakers, guests, sponsors, branding, details, group photos, and key people.

For standard sessions, you can expect to receive your fully edited photos within 2-3 weeks after the photography session. For weddings, the delivery timeline is 6-8 weeks. This timeline represents our standard delivery schedule but may extend due to high seasonal volume, technical issues, or other circumstances beyond our control. If you require your photos sooner, rush delivery options are available for an additional fee.

Yes, if you require your photos sooner than the standard delivery timeline, I offer rush delivery options including: 1) Rush Full Gallery Delivery that prioritizes your project in my editing queue, and 2) Preview Images where a selection of edited highlight images can be delivered quickly while the remainder of the gallery follows the standard timeline. Rush delivery services must be requested and agreed upon prior to the photography session, and additional fees apply.

Commercial use includes any use of the photos for promotional, business, or for-profit purposes. Examples include using the images in advertisements, on business websites, in brochures, product packaging, or selling/licensing the images to third parties. The license you receive as a client covers personal use only, such as sharing with friends and family, displaying in your home, or using for personal social media profiles that aren't primarily business-focused.

To book a session, please contact me through the contact form on my website, email me directly, or for certain sessions you can book a time and date directly through my booking link. We'll discuss your needs, available dates, and the type of session you're interested in. Once we agree on the details, I'll send you a contract to sign, and a 30% non-refundable booking fee is required to secure your date.

The 30% booking fee/deposit is non-refundable under all circumstances. For standard sessions, all other payments made beyond the deposit may be refunded if cancellation occurs more than 7 days before the scheduled session, minus any non-recoverable expenses already incurred. For weddings, installment payments may be refundable if cancellation occurs more than 30 days before the wedding date, minus any non-recoverable expenses. No refunds of any kind will be issued for cancellations within 7 days of standard sessions or within 30 days of weddings.

I understand that emergencies happen. In cases of serious illness, injury, or family emergency, please contact me as soon as possible. While my standard cancellation policy applies in most situations, I will work with you to find a reasonable solution in genuine emergency situations, potentially waiving or reducing fees on a case-by-case basis.
