Before the big day

For weddings, I love getting to know you two before the big day. Every package starts with a planning meeting where we walk through your timeline, put together your family photo list, and talk about the people and moments you especially want me to capture. You’re welcome to share inspiration photos too, so I can see what you have in mind.

On the day itself

I’m the girl who’ll fix your veil, find Grandma for a portrait, and get excited right along with you when you have a spontaneous photo idea. I’ll give you plenty of direction for the posed photos, so you always know what to do with your hands, then step back and give you room to enjoy the day. My favorite photos are usually the ones that happen right after: the laugh, the hug, the look you give each other when it finally hits you that you’re married.

Elopements and intimate weddings

Not every wedding is a full day. The 1-Hour Elopement covers your ceremony and portraits, and the Customized Wedding Package is built around your plans, whether that’s a small ceremony or an intimate wedding with your closest people. If you’re not sure how much coverage you need, that’s exactly what the free quote is for.

Where I photograph weddings

I’m based in Warrenton and photograph weddings throughout the Greater St. Louis area and across Missouri, and I travel into Kansas and Illinois and anywhere in the lower 48 states. Any travel fees are included in your quote before you book.

Questions

Good to know

Are you available for my wedding date, and do you photograph at my venue?

The quickest way to find out is to send your date and venue through the quote form, or call or text (660) 864-7430. I reply within 8 hours. I'm based in Warrenton, photograph weddings across the Greater St. Louis area and Missouri, and travel into Kansas, Illinois and the rest of the lower 48 states.

What's included in each wedding package?

Every package includes a planning meeting before the wedding, typically 100+ edited images per hour of coverage, and an online gallery within 8 to 10 weeks. The 1-Hour Elopement is $500. The 6-Hour Wedding is $2,950 with an engagement session and a second photographer. The 8-Hour Wedding includes both as well and is quoted, like custom packages.

Do you offer shorter coverage for elopements or intimate weddings?

Yes. The 1-Hour Elopement is $500 for one hour of photography covering your ceremony and portraits, with a $250 deposit. For intimate weddings and small ceremonies, the Customized Wedding Package is built around your timeline and what you want photographed. Extra coverage is $275 per 30 minutes or $375 per hour.

Can you help me figure out how many hours of coverage I need?

Yes, and quotes are free. I'll ask what kind of wedding you're planning, your date and location, and which parts of the day you want covered. Then I'll share the package that fits or put together a custom quote. Most quotes are handled by message or phone, and an in-person meeting is optional.

Is an engagement session included, and can we book one separately?

An engagement session is included with the 6-Hour and 8-Hour Wedding packages. You can also book one on its own for $425: one hour, 30+ edited images, and room for outfit and location changes, with a $20 deposit. It's a relaxed way to get comfortable in front of the camera before the wedding.

Do I have to have a second photographer with the 8-hour package?

The 8-Hour Wedding comes with a second photographer, along with your engagement session, so two of us can cover more of the day at once. If you'd like different coverage, tell me about your plans and I'll put together a Customized Wedding Package. Quotes are free, and I reply within 8 hours.

How much is the deposit, and how do I pay the rest?

Every package needs a non-refundable deposit to book: $250 for the 1-Hour Elopement and $300 for the 6-Hour and 8-Hour Weddings. On the 6-Hour Wedding, that leaves a $2,650 balance. You can pay by HoneyBook invoice, Venmo or cash, and the payment schedule is set out in your quote and contract.

How many edited photos will we receive, and when will our gallery be ready?

I typically deliver 100+ edited images per hour of coverage, so a 6-hour wedding usually comes to 600 or more. Your edited photos arrive in an online gallery within 8 to 10 weeks of the wedding. My client galleries are hosted on Pixieset at kbrownleephotography.pixieset.com.
