Arizona Photography FAQ

Do you travel to Arizona for weddings and elopements?

Yes — destination weddings and elopements in Arizona are welcome. I'm based in Minneapolis, and travel beyond 40 miles of downtown Minneapolis is billed at cost with no markup on flights or lodging and quoted before you book.

How much extra does it cost to bring you to Arizona?

Travel beyond 40 miles of downtown Minneapolis is billed at cost with no markup and quoted before you book, so you see the real numbers for flights, ground transport and lodging before you commit.

Do you scout Arizona locations before the shoot?

Always. I arrive a day early, scout your ceremony and portrait spots in person, watch how light moves at your venue, and build a shot list around your actual location. You're never paying me to figure things out on the day-of.

Can you legally photograph weddings in Arizona?

Yes. If your venue asks for proof of insurance, tell me early and I will get them a Certificate of Insurance at no charge.
