Why Should We Hire YOU?

Do you travel?

I'll treat your love story as if it were my own. You're part of the Libby Sue Photography Family now. I'll help you along the whole process, including creating a timeline that allows your wedding day to be your day. Weddings can be very stressful and overwhelming (I know - I planned one) but I'm there as a resource for you the entire time.

I'm your problem-solver and people-wrangler. I pride myself in capturing the moments of your day, not by just telling you to smile. Everything is natural, from your posing to the way I edit. If it rains, snows, hails, if hair and makeup is late or the groom is stuck in traffic, I've got you and your images will be amazing.



Absolutely! I'm a chronic worrier and will make sure we capture your wedding the safest way possible. Say something does happen (our gear falls in the ocean or spontaneously combusts) you'll be covered under our contract.


Yep, generally we take dinner as a break as you probably don't want pictures of people eating. Depending on how long your wedding is we may sneak away for a short break to have a snack or refill water. We prefer to eat in the room so we can be ready if we need to be. 



Short answer - no. Most of the time I am a one-woman show, and get the most beautiful moments captured for you. However, some weddings may need a second photographer (like if you have more than 200 guests and/or a really big wedding party, or we'll need to travel to several locations on your day). For overnight/destination weddings I always bring a second shooter or assistant.



I'm in a a network of amazing photographers I can call upon. We will find someone to step in for us.



I always shoot for 6 weeks, it may take up to 12 weeks depending on the circumstances. You will get all your hi-resolution images in an online gallery and the link is sharable so your family can download them themselves (no having to send flash drives)



I very rarely take more than 1 wedding a week, and only make a few exceptions for this. I generally don't take more than 20 in a year. I enjoy my family more than anything and still work full time.



Nope. Generally my couples get around 500-1000 images, culled down from the 100-2000 we take. Some images are blurry, too dark, of the sky, or of uncle Bob picking his nose. You probably don't want to see those.


Yes but only if you book photography with Libby Sue Photography. Right now we only have equipment to document your day. If you want hi-quality video I have some amazing videographers I can refer you to.



Being as understanding as I can possibly be, If I have the new date open, we can transfer any payments to the new date and we're set! Otherwise I will find an associate photographer for you. A cancelation is handled per the terms of the contract.

Yes! And I love too! I've photographed weddings all over the globe and try to provide the most reasonable rates for travel


I promise, I'm very comfortable working in all types of lighting conditions. I can use available light (my favorite), or I have plenty of lights to create my own lighting (my other favorite).



When you sign a contract, you place a retainer which saves your date and is applied to your total invoice. The retainer amount is 25% of your total. You can make payments along the way!


Would you believe me if I said sometimes crazy weather makes for the best photos? I’ve shot in snowstorms, torrential rain, complete fog, and intense wind and truly, the photos that came out of those days are absolutely incredible. I’ll make sure we have backup plans should the weather be really bad, but I’m also all for leaning into the adverse weather! Plus, it makes for a really great story!



An engagement shoot is included in your package for a few reasons. It's always nice to have images of yourselves outside of your wedding dress and it's a great way for us to get to know each other. Not doing an engagement shoot will not take money off your package. The only discount I currently offer is a 20% military discount.
