Frequetly Asked

How do we book with you?

Simply fill out my inquiry form HERE and I’ll be in touch to go over details! Booking is simple! Once you’ve decided on your package, I’ll send over a contract and invoice for your retainer to officially secure your date. Your date is reserved as soon as both are completed, and then we’ll start planning everything from there!

Frequetly Asked

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes, of course! The retainer to secure your wedding date is $800, or 25% for a regular session. After that, payments can be made in whatever increments are most financially convenient for you as long as they are all completed before the final due date!

Frequetly Asked

Do you use photoshop?

Apart from temporary things such as bruises or acne I don't alter appearances because you are beautiful just the way you are! If there's something you want me to watch for during our shoot that will make you feel more confident in the photos, please let me know!

Frequetly Asked

When do we get our photos?

Your full gallery is typically delivered within a set turnaround time after your session or wedding day, which I’ll share with you when you book. I also always send a sneak peek so you have a few favorites to enjoy while you wait!

Frequetly Asked

When's the best time to book?

For weddings, as soon as possible! I get bookings as far as 18 months out, and some as close as just a few months out but it's better to be on the safe side! For regular sessions such as families & seniors, I recommend a minimum of 4 months out in order to get the month or season you want!

Frequetly Asked

What if we feel awkward?

You’re not alone in feeling that way and I promise you don’t need to know how to pose or “perform” at all. I’ll gently guide you the entire time with natural prompts so things feel relaxed and real. Most clients tell me they forget they’re even being photographed after a few minutes. :)

If you're looking for a reliable, experienced & knowledgeable, FUN, and overall amazing wedding photographer to help your big day go smoothly, Carlie is 100% your gal! Carlie did both our engagement and wedding pictures, and I couldn't imagine anyone better. She makes you feel comfortable and relaxed while giving specific instructions so you know how to pose for the pictures. I appreciated her great communication, as she quickly replied to my questions about the day-of timeline, details, etc. The photo quality is excellent and she returned our gallery soon after the wedding. I'm so grateful we picked Carlie Nicole Photography to capture all the sweet memories from our wedding day!

Carlie photographed our wedding and we cannot recommend her enough!! She answered all of our questions and provided so much helpful information throughout the process. She truly took the time to understand what we wanted and helped create a timeline that fit our day perfectly. My husband and I are very simple and wanted a stress-free wedding day, and Carlie and her second shooter made that happen. We even finished hair and makeup early and were way ahead of schedule for photos, which was a relief! They captured all of our special moments and allowed us to be us! We LOVE all of our photos and it is even so hard to pick what our favorites are. We’ll cherish them, and the memories, for the rest of our lives.
