Nathan & Taylor
Congratulations on a new and exciting milestone in your love story my friends!
I know that there are a plethora of options when it comes to photography, and it truly means so much that you are trusting me with your images yet again for another special moment. I can assure you that the images captured on your wedding day will be moments and memories you'll cherish throughout the years!
This proposal is meant to serve as a snapshot of your day and our general plans for coverage.
You'll be able to find all your information regarding your wedding coverage, who will be covering what and where, which payment option and plan you'd like to accept etc.
At the end of this prompt there will be a form that you can use to help inform me of any additional information, as well as ask me any further questions that you may have as the itinerary will naturally evolve over the year.
I truly am thankful and so excited to capture your big day!

The Team
As the photographer, I will be present throughout the highlight moments of the day to help organize, capture, and progress us through the day. My main focuses are going to be capturing with a wider/mid range lenses, aiming to create images that encompass the entire moment. These will pair well with the occasional intimate shots that I'll candidly capture throughout the day.
The legend himself really needs no introduction! As the Videographer, Andy will also be present throughout the highlight moments of the day but will primarily be candidly capturing the moment as we work. He and I will switch off during the portrait period to ensure you get all the coverage needed/we want for you.

If you do not see a payment plan that fits your needs, feel free to select the "custom payment plan" option in the form at the bottom of this proposal and I'd be happy to work with you on options that suit you best!
The Content Ratio
60% - Photo
The majority of your deliverables will be Photography based. This typically means out of the two creative heads present, you'll more than likely be hearing from the Photographer more. Throughout your day be sure to familiarize yourself with our photography team and get them in contact with you Point of Contact for the day to help ease your stress throughout the day.
60-40
40% - Video
Though a lower percentage in value, you will receive 100% in quality and effort! This just means that in regards to director priority, you'll hear less from the videographer throughout the day. We will be capturing in a more subtle and candid way while being mindful of the photography team.
The Engagement Session
Engagement Session
The Engagement session is included in your wedding package! This will be a great time for us to work and get comfortable together. It's a time to have fun and really take the time to fall into each other and get comfortable posing and being in front of a camera.
Location Options
Loose Park
If you are looking for a location that offers lots of nature, Loose Park is a wonderful option! Loose park has long stretches of open green fields, a wooded area with large trees, a pond/lake with 3 bridges, a willow tree, and more. For outfits
The West Bottoms
If you are looking for a location that offers urban and rustic tones, the West Bottoms is the best option! From brick, stone, and metal buildings and walls to wood doors, graffiti, train tracks and fields, the West Bottoms has it all.
KC Skyline/Landmarks

These include but are not limited to: Kaw Point, Liberty Memorial, Lookout Pointe, Kauffman Center of Performing Arts, The Country Club Plaza, Power & Light, etc.
Nostalgic/Place of Value
These locations are all dependent on you and your love story. I've had several couples note a very specific location or setting that they've wanted to revisit or recreate.
