Wedding Packages + Pricing

Understanding Your Investment in Timeless Memories
I know that choosing the right wedding photographer is more than just checking an item off your to-do list—it’s a decision that shapes how you’ll remember your wedding day for the rest of your lives. Every wedding is unique, which is why I’ve designed my photography packages to meet a variety of needs, budgets, and visions. Whether you’re planning a grand celebration, a micro wedding, or an intimate elopement, my goal is to ensure your love story is captured authentically and beautifully.
I believe in transparency and trust, which is why I provide clear, upfront pricing with no hidden fees or surprises. From our very first conversation, I’ll work hand-in-hand with you to create a photography experience that reflects your style, priorities, and the moments you’ll cherish most.
Your wedding day is filled with moments that can’t be repeated—the quiet excitement as you get ready, the tears during your vows, the laughter on the dance floor—and it’s my job to preserve each of them. With a mix of technical expertise, storytelling artistry, and a commitment to creating a relaxed and enjoyable experience, I’ll ensure your photos tell the story of your day in a way that feels true to you.
Because for me, it’s not just about photography—it’s about creating memories you’ll hold close to your heart for a lifetime.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is our editing style?
My editing style is timeless, true-to-life, and natural. I focus on preserving the genuine colors and emotions of your wedding day—no heavy filters or trendy edits that might feel dated years from now.
You can expect warm tones, clean whites, and true-to-color skin tones that reflect the beauty of your venue, your details, and your love story exactly as it unfolded. My goal is to create images that feel authentic and classic, so when you look back on your photos years from now, they still feel just as beautiful and meaningful.
I also balance my coverage with a blend of candid documentary moments and gently guided portraits, giving you a gallery full of both emotional storytelling and stunning editorial-inspired images.
What is our shooting style?
My shooting style is a blend of documentary and editorial approaches—focused on capturing your day authentically and naturally while also providing gentle guidance when needed for those beautifully composed portraits.
Throughout most of your wedding day, I take a documentary-style approach, allowing moments to unfold naturally and capturing the real emotions, candid laughs, and genuine connections as they happen.
When it comes time for portraits, family formals, and wedding party photos, I’ll step in with light direction and natural prompts to help you feel comfortable and confident, creating timeless, polished images that still feel true to who you are.
My goal is to make the entire experience feel effortless and fun, so you can be fully present and enjoy every moment of your day while I tell your story through my lens.
How far in advance should we book you for our wedding?
Most couples book me 12 to 18 months in advance to secure their date, especially for popular spring and fall weekends. I only take a limited number of weddings each year to ensure every couple receives the best experience, so the earlier you book, the better!
That said, if your wedding is sooner—don’t hesitate to reach out. If I’m available, I’d love to chat!
How long will it take to see our wedding pictures?
My typical turnaround time for wedding galleries is 8 to 12 weeks, depending on the season. During peak wedding months, it may take a little longer, but I always keep my couples updated throughout the process.
To hold you over, I deliver a sneak peek gallery the very next day so you can relive some of those incredible moments right away and share them with family and friends.
I always encourage my couples to reach out if they have any questions or want a status update—I'm here for you every step of the way!
Do you outsource bookings to other wedding photographers?
No, absolutely not. When you book with Stephanie Grooms Artistry, you’re booking me—the person you meet, plan with and trust to capture your wedding day. I do not outsource to other photographers or send associate shooters in my place.
It’s incredibly important to me to build a relationship with my couples from the moment you book through every step of the planning process. By the time your wedding day arrives, we’ll feel like old friends, and that connection is what allows me to capture your story authentically and naturally.
You deserve to know exactly who will be by your side on your wedding day—and that will always be me.
Do you have insurance?
Yes! I carry full liability insurance with high coverage, and I’m happy to provide a Certificate of Insurance (COI) to your venue if needed.
Many venues require this from your photographer, so just let me know and I’ll make sure they have everything they need well in advance of your wedding day.
How many pictures will we receive?
On average, my couples receive 400 to 600 edited images in their final wedding gallery. However, the total number can vary based on factors like your guest count, the size of your wedding party, the amount of coverage booked, and your wedding day timeline.
My priority is always quality over quantity—capturing every meaningful moment, big and small, so you have a complete story of your day to look back on for years to come.
Can I add a second photographer?
Absolutely! The Diamond Collection already includes 3 hours of second photographer coverage to help capture alternate angles and candid moments throughout the day.
If you’d like more second shooter coverage beyond the 3 hours included in the Diamond Collection—or if you’ve selected the Emerald or Ruby Collection—you can easily add a second photographer to any package.
Second shooter coverage is available at $100 per hour (with a 2-hour minimum), giving you the flexibility to customize your coverage to best fit your timeline and vision.
Can I add additional hours to my package?
Yes! All collections include a set number of photography hours, but additional time can absolutely be added if you’d like extended coverage. Whether it’s to capture more getting-ready moments, a longer reception, or a grand exit, I’m happy to tailor the timeline to your day.
Additional hours with Stephanie are available at $600 per hour.
This applies to all collections and can be added at the time of booking or later as your timeline takes shape.
