To me, you’re more than just a client—you’re someone with a beautiful life full of precious memories. My goal is to create something you can cherish forever, something you’ll look back on in 20 years and still feel the same emotions you felt in that moment. Whether it’s a small, feel-good memory or one of the most important days of your life, I’m here to craft a piece of art that captures it all. It’s an honor for me to use my talent to create lasting memories, and I’m deeply committed to giving you the best possible experience. Because when it comes to remembering life’s greatest moments, you deserve something crafted with as much love as the moments themselves. <3
My philosophy
Creating together
I totally get it—being in front of the camera can be a bit intimidating. But my goal is to make you absolutely love the experience! My mission is to keep every session relaxing and fun while staying true to the theme of our shoot. From the moment you meet me, you’ll see that I’m all about having a good time and sharing lots of laughs. I want you to feel at ease and confident so we can capture all the amazing aspects of you and your personality. Whether you have a clear vision or need a bit of guidance, I’m here to bring your ideas to life with the skills I’ve honed over the years. I want to make this an experience you’ll truly enjoy :)
My Style
If you take a look at my work, you’ll see I’m a big fan of stunning scenery and beautiful sunsets! Most of my sessions take place outdoors, embracing the natural beauty of our gorgeous area. But don’t worry if you’re more into indoor settings—I’ve got all the right equipment to capture every detail of an indoor space too.
Got a special spot that’s meaningful to you or a place you just love? Maybe somewhere you think is particularly pretty? Let’s go there! I’d love to capture you in a place that holds significance for you.
Not sure where to go? No problem! I have plenty of beautiful suggestions to match any idea or vibe you have in mind.
When it comes to editing, I’m all about bright, natural colors. I love adding a touch of pizzazz, but my main goal is to stay true to the original image. I want my edits to reflect the moment as accurately as possible—just as you saw it with your own eyes when we were there. It’s all about capturing the genuine beauty of the scene.
Memories for everyone
My goal is to create a safe and loving space for everyone. No matter who you are or who you love, you deserve the same level of love and respect in capturing your memories and creating art . I’m a proud supporter of LGBTQ+ inclusivity and would be truly honored to celebrate you through my work :)
Frequently Asked Questions :
Here are a few things you may be wondering about !
How do I book ?
To book you can send me an email at Monochromecreative@outlook.com or fill out the contact form on my contact page.
Can you help me plan my portrait session ?
Absolutely! One of my favorite aspects of this process is bringing your ideas to life. I’ll start by reaching out with some general questions about the type of portraits and the vibe you’re envisioning. Together, we’ll plan your dream session. If it helps, I can also create an inspiration board with suggestions for locations, poses, and outfits to ensure we’re perfectly aligned
What happens if we have bad weather?
Bad weather can be a challenge, but your safety is my top priority. I’ll never ask you to come out in the rain or travel in unsafe conditions. If we encounter unfavorable weather, we’ll simply reschedule for the next day with better conditions that works for both of us!
Do you charge a travel fee ?
I am currently based in Wilkes-Barre, PA. For weddings and portrait sessions within a one-hour radius of my base location, no travel fee is applied. For locations between 2 to 3 hours away, a $200 travel fee will be charged. For locations beyond 3 hours, I require accommodation at a local hotel to be provided.
What is the deposit to book ?
To secure your wedding date, a 30% deposit along with a signed contract is required.
For portrait sessions, a non- refundable $60 deposit is needed at the time of booking.
What is your cancellation policy ?
Life can be unpredictable, and I understand that sometimes plans change. If you need to cancel your portrait session, your non-refundable deposit will be retained and can be applied to a rescheduled date that works for both of us. If rescheduling isn’t possible, your deposit will be held as a credit toward a future session.
Wedding cancellations are handled on a case by case basis.
What kind of editing do you do ?
I perform basic and standard editing to brighten colors and enhance your images. This includes light retouching for obvious stains, blemishes, wrinkles in clothing, and stray hairs. However, I do not undertake heavy photoshopping or extensive modifications to the images.
Do you do full day coverage wedding videos ?
Currently, I do not film every aspect of the wedding day in its entirety (such as the complete ceremony or reception without breaks). Instead, I offer a 10-minute recap video, set to music of your choice. This video is a curated highlight reel, featuring small clips from throughout your entire day.
What is your turn around time ?
Portrait session galleries are typically delivered within 1-2 weeks after our shoot.
For weddings, you will receive your selection galleries and sneak peeks within one week.
Finished wedding galleries with digital images are usually returned within 4-6 weeks.
If your package includes both digital images and a recap video, the complete gallery will be delivered in approximately 6-8 weeks.
How do I get my photos ?
All photos are delivered in an online gallery! All I need is your E-mail to send that right out to you.
Can we do an in person conseltation ?
While some may prefer to communicate via email or phone, I’m more than happy to arrange an in-person consultation! I have a meeting room at a shared studio space in Kingston, PA, or we can meet at a local café or coffee shop—whichever works best for you!
