My Philosophy
My photography process is based in authenticity and connection. I approach each session wanting to understand the people I’m photographing. I want to create a space where they can be entirely themselves.
This connection allows me to capture the essence of each moment, transforming fleeting interactions into timeless images. I strive to make my clients feel comfortable and confident, which translates into photographs that are both beautiful and deeply personal.
What sets me apart is my meticulous attention to detail combined with an easy-going presence that makes every session enjoyable. I carefully consider the lighting, composition, and natural flow of each shoot, ensuring that every image not only looks stunning but also tells a story.
My clients often comment on how I become a part of their special moments, not just as a photographer but as a friend who celebrates alongside them. This unique blend of professionalism and warmth results in images that do more than just capture a moment; they transport you back to the emotions and stories that defined it.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do your services cost?
All my prices are starting points and can fluctuate based on travel needs or other elements. Weddings start at $5000. Engagements, couple, and family sessions start at $600. Maternity sessions start at $450 and portrait sessions start at $350.
How far in advance should I book?
Booking a month out is usually enough time to secure a date that fits both of our availabilities. If you are constrained to only shooting on the weekends, it may be better to reach out two months in advance.
How do we choose the location for the photoshoot?
I have a lot of great spots I like to shoot at in Phoenix, but I am always looking for recommendations! If you have somewhere near and dear to you in mind, let's do it!

"Not only is Laurel a talented professional, but she is also a truly awesome human who makes you feel comfortable and at ease."
"Laurel always goes above and beyond. She was a true friend that day and she absolutely blew us away by taking care of any little detail to ensure that I felt supported."
“I am not usually one to have photos of myself around my home, but I had to have so many of them printed and framed because they capture such gorgeous moments for my husband and I. I love her! She makes everyone feel so comfortable and confident.”
"We booked Laurel for our wedding and it was by far one of the best decisions we made. She captured the day and made it look effortless; every time I look at my photos, I feel just like I did on the wedding day."

Booking Questions
Do you help in the planning process?
Absolutely! A significant part of my role as a photographer is to assist you in the planning process. I'll guide you through scheduling, help you fit everything in seamlessly, and ensure you feel calm and confident throughout the process.
Can we meet you before booking?
Absolutely! I'd love to meet you and discuss your vision for your wedding day. Let's schedule a meeting or a video call to get to know each other better.
Do you travel for weddings?
Yes, I do! While I'm based in Phoenix, I love traveling for weddings and am available for destinations near and far. Let's discuss your dream location! I aim to make my travel arrangements as budget-friendly as possible, depending on the event's location and available accommodations.
How do we book you for our wedding?
Booking me is simple! After our initial meeting and once we've determined that we're the perfect match, I'll send over a contract for you to review and sign. A retainer fee is required to secure your wedding date.
How far in advance should we book you for our wedding?
It's best to book your wedding photographer as soon as you have your date and venue secured. Popular dates tend to book up quickly, so the earlier, the better!
What if we need to cancel/reschedule our wedding?
If you've already put a deposit down on a date and need to move or cancel it, the deposit is non-refundable. In such cases, a new deposit will be required to hold your new date.
Deliverable Questions
What's included in your wedding photography packages?
My packages are designed to be comprehensive, covering everything you need for stunning wedding photos. They include full coverage on your wedding day, an online gallery for viewing and downloading your photos, and printing rights. Additional options and customization are available based on your needs.
How many photos will we receive?
The number of photos depends on various factors like the length of your wedding day, the number of guests, and the activities involved. On average, you can expect to receive around 50-100 photos per hour of coverage.
How long does it take to receive our photos after the wedding?
You can expect to receive your fully edited photos within 4-6 weeks after your wedding day but I'll send you some sneak peeks within 48 hours!
Pricing Questions
How do payment schedules work?
To secure your spot on my calendar, I require a 30% retainer. The remaining 70% is due 3 months in advance for weddings and 2 months in advance for shoots. If needed, you can split these payments (up to 3 payments) to make it more affordable. I'm happy to work with your schedule!
Do you offer any discounts?
I do not currently offer any, but if you are booking a shoot in one of my bucket list locations, I will take 10% off the final price of my services. Inquire with me to find out where!
Other Questions
What happens if it rains on our wedding day?
Don't worry, I've got you covered! I always come prepared with backup plans and equipment to ensure that your photos turn out beautifully, rain or shine.
Can you Photoshop us?
I believe in capturing your natural beauty, so I don't alter your appearance unless it's for temporary issues like skin blemishes, bruises, scrapes, or acne. If you're self-conscious about something, please let me know, and I'll be extra aware of it while posing you.
