FAQ’s
How much does wedding photography typically cost?
Good question - Most folks only do this once and don’t know the costs involved, especially since it can vary so much from photographer to photographer. Here’s a link to a 2024 survey of wedding photographers about their pricing: https://www.fearlessphotographers.com/blog/339/2024-wedding-photography-prices-2024
When will we get our photos?
I can send you a few sneak peeks within a few days of your wedding (unless I'm traveling). My goal is to send your gallery within 4-6 weeks. But, it may take me up to 12 weeks, depending on my schedule. (This doesn't happen very often, and I will let you know ASAP if there will be any delays beyond 6 weeks.)When will we get our photos?

We want you to be our photographer, but can we wait to book? Do you offer payment plans?
I totally understand all the pieces that have to fit before you make the final decisions.
If you’re concerned that may be booked by the time you make your decision, you can pay a $1500 retainer to reserve your date. Then I'm officially yours, and we can figure out the rest of the details as they fall into place. Payment plans are available, individualized to what you need, just ask!
Is your retainer refundable?
It’s a non refundable fee, however if you have to move your wedding, let me know! I can transfer your retainer to your new wedding date, provided I’m available, for a small rescheduling fee.
Can you recommend a wedding planner? Makeup artist? Florist? Officiant? All the things?
I sure can! I'm with you every step of the way! I've photographed hundreds of weddings and I've seen an infinite number of creative combinations of vendors, ceremony styles and schedules. Please consider me your coach, cheerleader, and hype girl. Ask away!
My family wants to contribute - is there an easy way to do this?
Of course. Your family can purchase Square gift cards applicable to your wedding or engagement photos HERE, it’s a great option for your wedding registry or a bridal shower gift idea as well.
How much is travel?
My fee to travel within Alberta, outside of the Edmonton area, is $350. I’ll send you a quote for other locations!
OK! We’re ready to book! What now?
You can pay your retainer with the link included on your quote site. Don’t have a quote yet? Please fill out as many details as you can here, or email Buffy. Indicate which of the proposal options listed above is best for you, and Buffy will send you paperwork as soon as possible to lock in your date. Not sure on all the details yet? That’s fine, we can figure those things out!
