DO YOU SELL ALBUMS?

How far in advance do I need to book? 

I book weddings anywhere from a couple months to a year and a half out. I recommend reaching out as soon as possible to see if I have your date available as some of them can fill up pretty quickly - especially Saturdays! The same goes for engagement sessions. As for portrait, family, and lifestyle sessions, I do not book these more than 2 months out from your desired session date. 

Where do you work? Will you travel for my session / wedding? 

I'm currently based in Nashville Tennessee, but am originally from the Chicago area so I consider that another home base for me, and shoot up there often. I also love to travel and am always open, willing, and excited to shoot events that are located in other places! I usually photograph 3-5 out of state weddings a year, and would love for yours to be one of them! If you are interested in hiring me for a destination wedding or anywhere outside of the middle Tennessee area or Chicago, just shoot me a message and we can definitely work something out! Location is no obstacle.

Let’s do this thing - I’m ready to book! What’s next? 

First off, YAY! I am thrilled that you would like to work with me. The first step is to reach out via my contact page if you haven’t already. I ask for a non-refundable 25% retainer fee to reserve the date of your wedding. For engagement, lifestyle and portrait sessions I require a 50% non-refundable retainer fee. If we need to reschedule, this deposit can be applied to another date.

I do! If you're investing in quality photos from your wedding day, they deserve to be printed and put on display. Heirloom albums are custom designed to fit your style and made with high quality pages built to last. They're pretty enough that you'll want to leave it out on your coffee table. If you, your parents, or another family member or friend would like to purchase an album, please submit an inquiry through my contact form or email me at hello@christinemeyercreative.com for design options and pricing. 

How will I get my photos/How long will it take?

Each event is different. For weddings, you can expect your images to be delivered within 4-8 weeks, however you will receive a preview of around 10-15 photos. Portrait sessions can expect a turn around time of 7-14 days. You will receive electronic, downloadable versions of the images with unlimited printing rights via an online gallery. This makes it easy to share the link to all the wedding photos with family and friends, whether they live down the street or on the other side of the world. 

Can I get my photos printed?

Yes! These photos are made to printed and hung up on your walls or sprawled around the house in some cute little frames! Printing rights go to all clients so they have the ability to have the photos printed where and when they please. To make it a little easier on you, you can also order prints directly through the online gallery that you receive and have them shipped right to your house (or your parents’ house because let’s be honest, they’ll definitely want some, too!) This is the recommended method for printing your photos because they are professional photo printing labs. Unlike your neighborhood Walgreens, they respect the integrity of your photos, giving you true to color, higher quality images.
