THE UNEXPECTED, INTIMATE MOMENTS THAT TAKE PLACE ON A WEDDING DAY TELL THE STORY OF A BEAUTIFUL MARRIAGE
After photographing multiple weddings over the past few years… I’ve really come to value the unexpected, intimate moments that take place on a wedding day.
The hug your mom gives you before you leave your dressing room. The tear that falls down his cheek when he sees you walking down the aisle. The way the two of you lean your heads together during the toasts.
This day is about more than the flowers and the shoes you chose. It’s about celebrating the start of a new family. It’s an honor to play a part in such a significant day, and I hope you’ll choose me to be a part of yours!
THE WEDDING PROCESS
LET'S CHAT!
You’ve thoroughly combed through my website, blog and Instagram feed and you like what you see. So the next step is setting up a time to chat to make sure we’re the perfect fit for one another.
THE WEDDING PROCESS
DATE BOOKED
Once your date is officially reserved, we’ll send over a few goodies to help you prepare for the big day. We’re happy to serve as a resource for vendor recommendations, timeline guidance and more!
THE WEDDING PROCESS
THE SESSION
Sessions can take place anywhere from immediately following a proposal to just a few days before the wedding. We’ve found that there isn’t a “good” or “bad” time to take your photos.
THE WEDDING PROCESS
WEDDING PREP
We check in about two months before the wedding to start chatting about timeline specifics, special details, family formal shot lists, special traditions and anything else we should know about your big day.
THE WEDDING PROCESS
THE BIG DAY
It’s finally here! The day the two of you say “I Do” and dance the night away surrounded by your family and friends. Just know I’m excited to celebrate and capture your wedding day. It’s going to be awesome.
THE WEDDING PROCESS
THEY'RE HERE!
You can expect your photos to be delivered via an online gallery within about three weeks of your wedding. At that time, we’ll also send over details about preserving your images through prints and albums.

"His photos are of excellent quality.'
I would highly recommend Rodney Smith Photography. He is very knowledgable, works well in various settings, and his photos are of excellent quality.
We appreciate the time and effort taken to make our day memorable.

Q:
WE LOVE YOUR WORK AND WE’RE READY TO BOOK! WHAT’S THE NEXT STEP?
A:
Fantastic! To reserve your wedding date, I’ll need a completed contract and a 33% non-refundable retainer. If you don’t have a contract yet, just let me know and I’ll send one over! The remaining balance will be due 1 week before the wedding.
Q:
WHEN DO YOU CHARGE TRAVEL FEES?
A:
Travel fees are typically added to any wedding outside of a 60-mile radius from my home in Crossnore, North Carolina. Fees vary depending on location and current gas prices so ask for more details.
Q:
How Many Images Do We Get and Can We Print Them?
A:
Galleries typically include anywhere between 400 and 800 photos. The exact amount varies from wedding to wedding. Your online gallery will come loaded with fully edited high-resolution images you can print anywhere. You’re also welcome to share your wedding photos on Facebook as long as you credit me and link to my website.
Q:
Do You Offer Wedding Albums and Custom Wall Art?
A:
Yes! Many of my brides and grooms opt to purchase a wedding album and wall art. Most of my couples choose to upgrade their wedding albums and invest more money into their first family heirloom. Gift certificates can be purchased by your friends and family to put towards your album or wall art. You can add a request for gift certificates to your wedding shower wishlist and to your wedding registries.
