Engagement
Engagement sessions have got to be up there with some of my favorite genres to photograph. Couples are so naturally happy, it's hard to fake that kind of joy. Let me capture the essence of what makes your relationship uniquely yours.
I love spending time with couples, learning as much about them in these sessions helps me to capture the wedding day in a much more meaningful way.
If I am privileged enough to be capturing the wedding day, the engagement session really helps couples feel comfortable and confident with me on their wedding day. Their story, what makes them unique. This is the best part of my job. Understanding how each and every couple came to be allows me to capture the wedding day so much more effectively, making the images all the more meaningful.
“Linda has such a unique eye for photography. I absolutely hate getting my photo taken, but her laid back personality made me feel so comfortable and her knowledge on what would make me look best helped me to relax. My photoshoot was fun and professional. I could not recommend her more!

FAQ
How many images do you deliver?
This varies based on the package you choose and your wedding day goes. My galleries are usually a good size. I like to deliver plenty of variety in order to make sure there is something you love. I would say between 800 to 1200 images can be expected for a full wedding gallery.
How long will it take to deliver the final images?
I aim to deliver your wedding gallery within 6 to 8 weeks of the session date. Sometimes this may vary based on busy seasons or personal commitments. I will inform you if you can expect any delays.
Will you provide me full print rights to the images?
Yes, all images are delivered with full rights for printing for personal use.
How do I know which package is right for me?
The consultation meeting is designed for me to help guide you as to which package best fits your needs. I also send you a questionnaire after you have chosen your package. This will help me get to know you even better.
What is the difference between touchups and editing?
Touchups include adjusting light, cropping and fixing minor blemishes. Editing is the much more involved process of manipulating the image.
Can you help with wardrobe?
Of course! This is the best part. The colors, prints and textures you pick for your session will effect the overall feel of your images. This is part of my booking questionnaire and consultation. We talk about what will work best based on your overall goals.
I hate having my picture taken, I feel uncomfortable and awkward. How can you help?
I always tell my clients that have this concern that most people feel this way on picture day. You definitely are not alone in this regard! I really try my best to keep the session fun and relaxed to help you feel comfortable. It is important to trust my process and believe that I know you feel this way. I will set up playful scenarios that may feel awkward in the moment, but they are actually designed to break the ice and create natural reactions, such as a burst of laughter for me to capture, so you look as natural and relaxed as possible. Just trust me and have fun, this will be the best way to ensure gorgeous pictures.
Will you post on social media?
I typically post sneak-peeks on Instagram and Facebook shortly after the session. I will always take care to only share appropriate images. I won't share images I wouldn't share of myself or my own children.
What does the pre-booking consultation entail?
This consultation can happen in person over lunch or coffee or even over zoom. I highly recommend this meeting because my method is massively effected by how much I've been able to get to know you. I pride myself in overdelivering, I want to make it worth your time and financial investment. The more I know you before you wedding day, the more at ease we all feel. Feeling comfortable with your photographer is really important on your wedding day. So sitting down with me in person before you even book me, is part of that process.
Can I print from a regular print shop?
Absolutely! I do warn my clients that not all print services are the same and the quality of your print can massively alter the overall look and feel of a picture. All images are delivered with full print rights for personal use. Just be aware that some print shops will automatically adjust the image, so results may vary, I can offer advice to avoid this. For best results, print through the print store found in the gallery or I can also share other ideas with you too.
