Investment & Pricing Transparency

I do not use Chat GPT or AI at any point in this process. Everything is organic and from the heart, including primary research and questions.

I begin with research to answer all the basics - who, what, when, where, why, and how. Next, I take that information and translate It into open-ended questions to ask my primary sources, in this case, yourself and your parents. These questions have endless possibilities based on the specific topics of conversation we want to focus on and sometimes require follow-up interviews.

In this instance, I'll be attending your wedding as an event to immerse myself in the experience. This will allow me to formulate a story with the most detail and genuine emotion possible. I will not only be seated with your guests but also engaging in conversations that help bring the story to life.

After the wedding, I interview your friends and family for their reflections. Day-of, I don't want to pull them from their experience, so I give them enough time to process everything before I contact them to set up the interviews. I'll begin transcribing hours of audio and marking areas that align with the story we want to tell. Only then can I begin writing, and by the time I'm finished with a large percentage of it, your photos should be accessible and able to drop into a design.

After a small preview, I will send it off to print and receive it personally to check for any imperfections. Finally, I will either ship or hand deliver your final product. We can review it together if you'd prefer, or if you're out of state, we'll arrange for them to be shipped to you.
