Our job is not done if we simply deliver JPG files to you. We have partnered with exclusive heirloom makers who craft the finest quality albums, prints, and frames that will stand the test of time. We will walk you through all the options so that you make the most informed selection that best suits your needs and your household. And you can rest assured that your photos will be printed in the correct colors and on archival paper that will last a lifetime (and then some). In this digital era, it is easy to think that digital files will have the most longevity. But that is simply not true. Where will these files be stored? How will you access them in 30 years? Instead of relying on a hard drive that might fail or an online server that may not even exist when you're older, put your trust in something that will outlast you. These are not only your memories to keep reliving, but a legacy for your children and grandchildren. Your wedding day photos deserve to be displayed with the same refined style and care that you placed in designing the most perfect day. Because we believe in the longevity of print, we will help all of our clients choose the best option for them to preserve their most cherished memories.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do you travel?
YES, I love to travel and typically travel for half my events annually. Destination celebrations usually have multiple days of events (rehearsal dinner, wedding, send-off brunch, etc.), so I make sure to be available to document any and all festivities involved in your celebration!
Do you charge for travel fee?
For locations 100 miles outside of my office, I calculate a travel fee based on mileage. For destination work, I have a travel fee that includes airfare and is tailored to your event.
Do we need a second shooter?
Yes. In my years of experience, I photographed a handful of events myself and quickly came to realize that having a second photographer allows there to be more variation in the angles captured and more detailed photos of your gorgeous florals, family members, candids, etc. A second photographer ensures everything will run smoothly and we can be in two places at once.
Do you offer payment plan?
I do! My usual booking process includes a $900 deposit to officially reserve your date along with your signed contract. The 2nd and 3rd installments are scheduled equally, leading up to your special day.

While price is always a factor when selecting your wedding photographer, it should not be the only thing that matters. All too often we hear horror stories from brides who made a decision for their wedding photography based purely on price. It turns out to be foolish in the end. When its all said and done, your wedding photography will be all you have to remember your wedding day. With 17 years of experience, we have learned that every wedding celebration is unique. To cover the entire wedding, you need at least 8 hours coverage to capture a wedding story.
We provide the highest quality photography service that you have not experience anywhere. Your wedding photographs are priceless so let us capture the important day of your life. We at Butterfly Photography will review each client's wedding file to make sure it has the quality that we expect to deliver to each client. We provide the best customer service to ensure your satisfaction. We would love to talk to you about your wedding timeline plan and needs so that we can design a photography package just for you. In addition to our high quality service, we provide every client a beautiful custom made flush-mount album that tells the story of their day.

LUXURY EXPERIENCE
IT COMES DOWN TO STYLE...
We prioritize timelessly styled photography and an overall experience that is rounded off by joy and intention. Our goal is to provide a radiantly unique, light-filled and softly sophisticated experience that renders true to life imagery from your wedding. Not only brightening your wedding event while we work together, but adding more splendor to the minutes, months and years that follow. All thanks to photographs that bring you straight back to the emotions that started it all.
OUR SIGNATURE STYLE
Photographs with a style that cannot be replicated — we mix the true-to-life, lightly textured facets of film photography with the fast-paced, reliable aspects of digital to carefully craft each photograph. Natural skin tones and intentional compositions come hand in hand. While your final gallery will be sent in digital (shareable, downloadable, printable) formats, the film format I use for selective photographs creates content that inspires both nostalgia, and legacy.
TWO PHOTOGRAPHERS
In two places at the same time, that is precisely what’s possible with two photographers. Two perspectives in every scene, My Second Shooter Team, documenting one half of the wedding party while I take photographs of your slow-and-easy morning.
CREATIVE & COMMUNICATIVE
While most couples book us hoping for a gallery like the ones in my portfolio. I want you to walk away with the style you loved, but more importantly, unique photographs that depict elements of your life and your story in a way that is unrepeatable. Photographs that are inherently unique, and reflective of who you are. The communication (pre-wedding calls, emails and helpful guides) ease us into a wedding where personalized photographs happen naturally.
ENGAGEMENT
I specialize in not only wedding photography but also engagement photography, also sometimes known as “pre-wedding” photography or “couples” photography.
I understand that engagement photos are important to not only remember this time in your relationship but also to have amazing photos to show off to family and friends, as well as for you to display at your own wedding.
As your engagement photographer, I will work with you to figure out the perfect location (or locations) for your engagement session. We can do an engagement session anywhere .
I like to keep my engagement sessions fun and relaxed so that we can capture authentic moments between you and your partner. My goal is always to make sure you feel comfortable in front of the camera so that your personalities shine through in the photographs.
Engagement Photography Pricing
We believe that engagement photos should be affordable and accessible to everyone. We offer a variety of affordable packages to choose from. Our engagement session begins at $1000, but they are complimentary if added to your wedding photography package.
