packages & pricing
Take a peek at my starting pricing below. Film is included in my investment pricing and is not considered an "add-on." Shooting analog film is my favorite part of my job -- it slows me down and makes me into a better artist. If you're interested in having your wedding documented entirely on film formats(!), get in touch and we can chat.
Most of my couples invest between $12,000 and $18,000 for full-day wedding coverage and an engagement session. No two love stories are the same, and I'm always happy to customize a package to suit your needs! Above all, I want to work with people who appreciate my art and share my values, so if my work and my words resonate with you, reach out. I can't wait to hear from you!
"Nothing ever felt staged or performative. Their approach is beautifully documentary—attuned to mood, movement, and the small, human moments that make a day feel honest and alive. They capture people as they truly are, not as someone else’s idea of how they should look. They navigated our nerves, timing, and logistics with total grace."
– Karen & Saúl
"Hope and Max are incredible. They’re true wedding professionals and deliver the most beautiful, editorial-esque photos. Hope’s film work is especially stunning — we’re SO glad we chose to have both film and digital. Beyond their talent, their presence on the day is unmatched. They’re incredibly helpful with timeline management and making sure everything runs smoothly. They bring a fun, relaxed energy that instantly puts you at ease. Couldn’t recommend them more."
– Lauren & Luka
"Hiring Hope and Max was easily the best wedding decision we made. Their warmth and enthusiasm made us feel totally at ease, even when we normally feel awkward as the center of attention. They never made it feel like we were “posing,” everything was very natural, and we were grateful that they were with us throughout our wedding weekend. The photographs are beyond all of our expectations. They capture every moment of our day so beautifully and you can feel the emotion in them. The Super 8 video is beyond words -- it could not possibly have been more special. "
– Emily & Quinn
It's hard to articulate how unbelievable Hope is. I'll keep it short and sweet:
- Hope will be beloved by everyone at your wedding.
- She's professional yet affable. Warm yet firm.
- She's prompt, communicative, and punctual.
- She did not miss one second of our wedding. Every photograph we could have asked for was there, plus, she went above and beyond to layer in angles and environments that illuminated the humanity of our experience.
-Hope captured the inspired light of the love my wife and I feel for one another.
-I would be friends with Hope! She's kind, funny, and charming.
- Hiring Hope is a hands-down no-brainer decision if you want your wedding photography to be something you actually care about and want to look at the rest of your life.

The number one anxiety I hear from my couples is that they're worried they'll be awkward in front of a camera. Everyone feels this way, including me! Being photographed is hard. The good news? It's literally my job to make you feel comfortable and at ease in front of my lens. When we work together, I'm there to make sure you not only look and feel your best, but that you feel like you. We'll laugh, we'll dance, we'll eat cake. We'll have a reallyreallyreally good time.
From our initial phone call to the final gallery delivery, I'm there for you. When you book me as your photographer, I will be a resource during your planning, a positive presence on your day, and a friend throughout the whole process. I'll send you a packet with 50+ pages of info to help you with your planning, and we'll have a check-in about a month before the big day to finalize details. Need help creating a wedding day timeline? I'm your girl. Can't decide which shoes to wear? I gotchu. After the wedding, I'm always there to catch up over a beer and to capture your love story as the years go on. 'Til death do us part!
The thing I value most is a real relationship between myself and my clients. I feel most inspired, and create my best work, when I really know my couples, both together and as individuals. After all, your wedding photographer is one of the only people who is with you for almost every moment of the day - from the intimacy of getting ready to the magic energy on the dance floor. So, if we're going to spend so much time together, building a connection is key! Show me what makes your love yours, and I'll capture it as it really is.
what you
can expect
Why do you shoot both digital and film?
I take a hybrid approach because I can blend the timelessness of film with the speed of digital. I show up to most wedding days with at least four cameras hanging off of me (and more in my bag), ready to document every fleeting moment and subtle gesture with whatever tool is right for the job.
How would you describe your style?
My style is soulful, creative, and nostalgic. My goal is to create little works of art for you to treasure forever. I aim to capture moments through my lens, but also through yours; the best photos are not just aesthetically pleasing — they are familiar, recognizable because they show the moment as it truly was and as it truly felt.
Do you travel for weddings?
Yes! My husband and I split our time between the US and Scotland, so we document weddings here, there, and everywhere in between. If you're planning a destination wedding, let's talk.
How long does it take to receive our photos?
For weddings, you can expect your gallery in 10-12 weeks. For engagement sessions, you can expect it in 2-3 weeks. Don't worry — I always send sneak peeks within 48 hours of shooting!
