HI, I’M MEME

Howdy! I’m Meme! It’s pronounced like, “Mee-Mee,” but no biggie if you've been saying it wrong, I've heard it all! In any case, you can also refer to me as your professional third wheel, The Cat Whisperer, The Mango Maven (I’ll explain later), The Shutter Queen, you know, whatever you’re in to! I'm currently based out of Frisco, Texas. I have a penchant for adventure, and making memories with you and your fiance is what I care about more than anything.

When I’m not out shooting, I can be found in any of the innumerable coffee shops in Frisco (Summer Moon is definitely my jam, though). I love a great book, even if I don't always have time to finish it before starting another. Much to my own surprise I've developed quite the green thumb over the past year, so naturally, my apartment is filled with thriving houseplants (yes, I've named them all) and I'm always trying new potting techniques.

For some back story, I’m just another millennial chasing my innate passion and pursuing what I love, man. I have a bachelors degree in Biology (disclaimer in the event that I ever rattle off random anatomical regions while directing during a shoot), and if you’re ever feeling ill, I can probably diagnose what you’ve got for you - no WebMD required. Ever since I was a little snot-nosed kiddo, I’ve always had some sort of camera in my hands, whether it was a little a point and shoot or a Polaroid. But after undergrad, I bought my very first DSLR camera as a graduation gift to myself (because, treat yo self), and the rest is history. After years of live performance/concert/festival photography, I later discovered that I truly have a passion for capturing weddings, couples in love, and the spaces they inhabit.

My goal is to travel the world in search of the adventuresome, the untamed, and the eclectic couples of Earth. I’d love to meet you, your pets, your families, and I want to hear all about your vision for your big day. And, I’ll try my best not to cry with you when you walk down the aisle (no promises, though). I love to laugh, I love to make memories, and moreover, I love people. Documenting weddings in the most authentic and honest way possible, is kind of my jam. Let’s be friends?

Frequently Asked Questions

QUESTION

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE?

ANSWER

Great question! I would say that my approach is documentary-style. It’s journalistic in that I want to capture the day as it unfolds without staging or awkward posing, as I want your images to be a genuine reflection of your day in the most truthful, untainted way. I would describe my style as romantic, emotive, and authentic.

QUESTION

WHERE CAN WE SEE OUR PHOTOS?

ANSWER

Digitally! I deliver all of my images to you in a personalized online gallery. This gallery can be accessed for up until a year from the shoot date. Images from your gallery can be downloaded in both high-resolution form for printing purposes, as well as web-sized resolution for social media and web posting.

QUESTION

IS THE RETAINER FEE NON-REFUNDABLE?

ANSWER

For all sessions, I require a retainer fee and a signed contract. To make me your official third well for your wedding, the retainer is 25% of the total cost. For all other sessions, the retainer is 50%. The retainer fee is non-refundable, as it secures your date and time for you and you alone. In the event that you need to re-schedule, the retainer fee can be transferred to an alternative date.

QUESTION

WAIT, YOU TRAVEL? THAT’S GREAT! WHAT’S THE COST?

ANSWER

I cannot stress enough how much I looove traveling, y’all. For weddings inside the continental U.S. and international destinations, let’s chat about either a flat travel fee or making other arrangements. I work with you guys to find the best rates available for lodging and flying, so that this remains feasible.

QUESTION

HOW MANY IMAGES WILL WE RECEIVE?

ANSWER

No two weddings are the same, and I allow the flow of the day to govern this. I focus on the quality of the images obtained versus quantity. In either case, I will say that I am an avid overshooter, and I am very generous when it comes to the amount of photos I deliver! My full wedding galleries typically range anywhere from 500-1000 photos, again just depending on the atmosphere of the day as well as the number of hours on-site. I just simply don’t like limiting either of us to a set amount of images from our session.

QUESTION

DO YOU OFFER PRINTS? ALBUMS?

ANSWER

As of right now, I offer both! Yay!! I also include a personal print release with your contract, so you’re totally free to have any of the high-res images from your session printed through a print service provider of your liking. You can also order prints directly through your online digital gallery, or I can also offer recommendations for print service providers in your area.

QUESTION

WHAT DO I WEAR TO MY SHOOT?

ANSWER

My favorite question! I can absolutely send over some of my Pinterest boards for you guys to take a gander at for some inspiration.
