FAQ's
Alaska has some of the most beautiful scenery you could ask for as a backdrop. However, anyone who has been here for a while knows that the weather can be rather unpredictable! You are welcome to reschedule a session up to TWO times before you need to resubmit a booking form and pay a new retainer fee. I am always open to shooting in the rain, snow, and cold weather. I also have plenty of experience thinking on my toes in terms of how to save a session that ends up with rough weather. It is ultimately up to you whether you believe it is necessary to reschedule based on your individual needs and visions for your session. That being said, depending on current availability and how busy things are, it may be a while before I can get you back in. I'm always open to having a chat and figuring out what the best decision is for us!
I do not give out raw, unfinished photos. I believe doing so would take away from the authenticity and creativity of my work as an artist. A huge part of the process is the hours of editing that go into each gallery, giving each photo a touch of 49th State Photography love! I always recommend viewing the portfolio of your chosen photographer to make sure their style and expertise matches your desires for your images.
I do not photoshop or alter any physical attributes of my clients. I strive to keep my art as natural as possible! If you are looking for a photographer who will photoshop your body or facial features, I am likely not the photographer for you. I do, however, always do skin retouching, smoothing, and blemish removal. I also remove imperfections such as bruises but will not change the shape of your nose.
Typically I shoot weddings solo unless there will be a large guest head count. I do provide the option to opt for a second shooter as an add on to my wedding and elopement packages. The rate for this is $75/hr.
