Wedding Photography Guide
Here’s everything you need to know about working with me :)
I’m Eva — a happy crying, sentimental, silly gal.
I will say "oh my gosh, so CUTE" probably 1,000 times during your engagement session & wedding and mean it more and more each time I say it.
I'll probably tear up during your first look or your vows. You bet I want to help plan, start dreaming about crafts & DIYs with you, answer any question you have about weddings, and text you all the time about anything you’re excited about.

Engagement Photos
Building a meaningful relationship with you is important to me
Getting to know you & your partner prior to your wedding is SO important to me, because more than anything I want you both to trust me & feel comfortable with me. I want to feel like your best friend who just so happens to be a wedding photographer, ya know? I don’t wanna be a stranger — so let’s take your engagement photos, grab coffee or a drink, watch the sunset, go on a walk, do crafts, and talk about anything.
Engagement Session Details:
— 1 hour of shooting
— 60+ high resolution, edited photos delivered via an online gallery, sneak peeks within 48 hours
— 1-2 outfits
— 1-2 locations of your choice (I can help us decide if needed and would love to go somewhere special to you two!)
— Bring your pets, incorporate your favorite things to do together, go to your favorite places, & show me what a typical date night is like!
Engagement photos are my gift to you when you book 8 hours with me :)
Frequently Asked Questions
-
It depends on how many guests you’ll have, if you want big moments captured in multiple ways, and how many family members you want group photos with.
I have a list of photographers I trust and work well with, and they would love to help capture your big day! I will edit all photos to have a cohesive style, so it’s pretty much like having two Evas there!
Why having 2 photographers is great:Ability to capture big moments from multiple angles (both partner’s first look reactions, side and straight on of the first kiss, another set of eyes watching for cute candids, etc).
If you have a long list of family members, they read out your family photo shot list during group photos. This allows me to take all the photos with your loved ones efficiently & seamlessly.
If I’m taking photos of you two during cocktail hour, our second can stay back and capture candids so no moment is missed!
-
Having 8 hours of photography coverage allows me to capture your whole wedding day from getting ready to the reception. Whereas the 6-hour package is perfect for shorter and smaller weddings. The 8-hour package is my most commonly booked package!
-
I have documents with sample photography timelines that explain how much time is usually needed for each section of the day, a physical wedding guide with everything I know about photographing weddings that I’ll send you with your first box of treasures, lots of blog posts to help you plan your engagement photos, and a Google Doc Questionnaire that will help us plan your photography dreams! Plus, you can text or email me anytime!
-
If you feel I’m your photographer soulmate, let’s schedule a call! During or after our call, let me know which package works best for you & I’ll send you our contract & invoice. Once the contract is signed and 10% non-refundable deposit is paid, I’m officially yours! Then we will start planning your engagement photos & dreaming about your wedding!
-
Engagement photos are only for you two & cannot be gifted to anyone else! Spending that time together prior to your wedding is such a special experience and allows you two to feel so much more comfortable with me taking your photos on your wedding day. If you want to book the 8 hour package and don’t need to use the engagement session, we can exchange it for another hour of coverage either on your wedding day or at your rehearsal the day before!
-
My #1 priority on your wedding day is ensuring you feel calm & in the moment. I’m showing up confident & excited. I spend time either the night before or the morning of going over all our notes, getting your family shot list ready to go on my phone, and making a collage of your inspo photos. We’ll have a call 1-2 weeks before the big day so I don’t have to ask you any questions on your wedding day!
I’m not stressed if things run a little late & I don’t want you to be stressed either! There’s always enough time for everything. I know when to step in and offer guidance & when to give you space so you can happy cry & hug your people. I’m constantly scanning the room & anticipating sweet candids.I know these are precious, irreplaceable memories. My cameras both have two SD card slots so every photo I take is immediately backed up. The first thing I do when I get home is back up your pictures to my computer & I start going through them!
-
Almost every couple says this to me! You are not alone & don’t worry at all, I’ve got you!! I will pose you in a way that feels natural and comfortable. I am all about candid and authentic moments, and often I’ll prompt you to move or do an action, which allows you to focus on each other, not on me!
