Shertease

“I hired Giovanni for a small wedding - She was THE kindest, most down to earth person to be our photographer, and to walk me through the process. She made everything so easy, and when it came to the day of, her direction really eased my nerves. Usually I get awkward when posing for photos, but she made all of that melt away while shooting.”

The FAQS

  • It really depends on how many hours you book and how much is happening throughout the day. Typically, you’ll get at least 400 photos, with most weddings averaging around 600-700 photos. For big, lively celebrations with tons going on, you can expect 750+ photos. Don’t worry—I’ll make sure all the important moments (and the fun little ones in between) are captured.

  • To secure your wedding date on my calendar, I require a $1,000 retainer for full-day weddings or a $400 retainer for elopements & courthouse weddings. The remainder is due the day of the wedding.
    Payment plans are absolutely available, and we can set up a schedule that works for you.

  • Of course! I absolutely loveeee destination weddings. There is a standard $1000 travel fee included in your final invoice. But this can vary depending on location.

  • I’ll send sneak peeks within 72 hours of your wedding, and your full gallery will be ready within JUST 4 weeks. I take my time to ensure every image is beautifully edited for ya.

  • Yes, and I love these sessions because we can get to know each other before your big day. When booked with your wedding package, you get $150 off!
    Engagement sessions are perfect for save-the-dates, your wedding website, or just capturing this amazing moment in your lives.

  • Of course! We can set up a call to chat about your vision, your story, and any questions you might have.
    When you fill out the booking form,
    it will take you to a page where you can schedule a call with me. Feel free to just email me: giovanni@lensofher.com if that’s easier!

  • Having two photographers is a great option for larger weddings or when you want extra coverage. I will bring along someone else at a additional rate of $100/hr. Keep in mind that you may only need them for part of the day. If this is the case. I typically recommend a second photographer if:

    • Your guest list is over 150 people

    • Bride and groom are getting ready at separate locations at the same time

    • You have a packed timeline with overlapping events, like cocktail hour happening during family portraits.

    • You just want more—more angles, more moments, and more memories captured.
