    Hello wonderful people!! I wanted to take a moment to discuss two very important items: availability and delivery.

    AVAILABILITY: Words cannot express how genuinely grateful and altogether excited I am to have so many wonderful weddings coming up in the remaining months of 2008 as well as 2009 and into 2010. For those interested in OPEN dates, look no further (well, no further than just below this sentence anyway).

    2008: BOOKED! :)

    2009: All of March, November and December are currently available. April thru August is currently booked aside from a few Friday and Sunday dates (please inquire).

    2010: I've booked three weddings for 2010 and inquiries are becoming more frequent. If you are interested in booking for 2010 please let me know and we can talk about scheduling a meeting. I would love to talk with you!

    DELIVERY: As my clients know, about 80% of my wedding photography is comprised of documentary images. That said, I shoot a great deal of photographs at every event which are then processed and delivered to my couples. For an average eight hour wedding we will deliver approximately 1,000 photographs. That number of photographs requires a significant amount of post processing to deliver what I consider to be a quality, print ready product. With over 60 weddings per year along with portrait sessions and e-sessions, initial consults, final wedding planning consults and album consults- that fills up much of my calendar. Currently, I do most of the editing and although I am in the process of looking for someone to take over basic post processing there, of course, will be a training period once I find that perfect person whom I trust will handle them with care. We (Andrea, my part time right hand, and I) also have print orders, retouching and album design to add to the mix along with the standard day-to-day operations of running a business and keeping in touch with clients. I've always delivered as quickly as I could and generally in the early part of 2008 a wedding was posted online within 4 weeks. Currently, however, we are delivering in about 5 to 6 weeks as this is the busiest time of year for us. I know my clients are anxious and believe me when I say that I'm anxious to get your photos completed and in your hands to enjoy, but a job well done does take time. I hope all of my fabulous couples who are biting their nails will soon appreciate the time I've spent to make their images uniquely their own. In the end, I'm doing all of this for you because I feel your day and your images are more than worth that time. ; )
