e r e h T Hey I’M MEGAN!
I love photography & weddings I’m here for you every step of the way I just want to make sure to thank you for reaching out and showing interest in allowing me to photograph your wedding day!
experience it has made me want to try and be that idealistic photographer I dreamed of for people here in northern Montana.
I’ve been in your shoes myself! When my husband, Kevin, and I got married in northern Montana. Finding the right photographer was important to me. I was fresh out of art school in Bozeman, Montana. I had a hard time finding the right artist to help me capture our wedding day. Through that
Weddings today are filled with creativity and usually a ton of DIY projects! There is so much work that goes into this one day and I understand that. Congratulations and I hope to work with you closely to make sure I am able to capture your dream day!

Booking Process Once we have a date nailed down, the fun begins! I will try to meet up with you to get a sense of your wedding day and just hammer out some details. We will also go over the contract if there are any questions or concerns. This consultation can happen before or after your engagement shoot. I want to get the conversation rolling so I have a better chance of understanding your needs and being helpful!
After the shoot within a few days I will send a sneak peak from your wedding day. You will receive your full gallery 2-4 weeks later. During the height of wedding season this can be longer since I will be gone on multiple weekends.
A non-refundable retainer fee of 25% of your collection must be put down to lock down your wedding date. Payment for the rest of your fees can be split up if you wish. I will not deliver your online gallery until your fee has been paid in full. You are welcome to pay with cash, check or card. I want this part to be as stress free as possible so I am willing to work with you to figure out what works for you. Checks can be made out to Sagebrush Studio Photography.
You will receive your online gallery which you will be able to download pictures in high-res versions or social media sizes. I do not watermark the social sizes since I believe it takes away from the moment, so please just mention or tag Sagebrush Studio Photography in your post. You are welcome to share your online gallery with family so they have a chance to save pictures they would like from that special day they got to share with you.
Wedding day! By now we have a game plan! I will arrive at the alloted time and we will just roll with the day whatever it throws at us!
In your online gallery you will also be able to purchase prints if you wish. Galleries will expire in 1 year, butyou have the option to re-new your online gallery for another year for $85.

Privacy If you do not want your pictures shared on social media, my website or, blog please just let me know! I completely understand if you do not want your pictures shared. If you only want certain ones shared I can set that up for you in your gallery to be able to label the ones you are ok with.
Gallery Privacy I can also include a password to access your gallery, and a password to be able to download pictures. This is very nice if you are planning on sharing your gallery with lots of friends and family. 8
Engagement SESSIONS
Begin your love story Congratulations on your engagement! The planning and excitement has already started as your big day arrives! I love to offer my clients a complimentary engagement session as my sort of congratulations and as a way to get to know them better. It makes my job a lot easier if you feel comfortable being photographed on your wedding day! I approach engagement sessions as a playful and natural expression of your love. I try to capture real and raw emotions that portray an authentic example of your love. These are a great way to showcase your personality as a couple. Engagement pictures can be used for save the dates, invitations, for use on your wedding website, and make great guest book albums for your wedding! These will be the memories you will have of this exciting occasion in your life. I hope you get to remember these moments always.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How many images will we receive? A: Your gallery will be filled with photos from throughout
Q: What equipment do you use? A: I am a Nikon lover! Before I was a photographer
the day. I typically shoot 50 - 75 pictures an hour. It does depend on which collection you decide to go with.
a full gallery looks like I would love to share a previous wedding with you!
myself I was a huge fan of some women documentary photographers. It’s probably because of them I choose Nikon. I bring along two camera bodies to weddings. I also bring along some off camera flash in case natural light isn’t enough. I use a Fuji camera for more of my own personal work. I do bring my Fuji along because it is a champ in low light situations!
Q: When will we see the wedding photos? A: Turnaround time for weddings is 2-4 weeks.
Q: How much do you edit the photos? A: Post processing takes time. After culling the photos
Engagement photos are 1-2 weeks.
from your day I try to keep an artistic standard. I color correct photos and straiten when necessary. I also edit the color profiles and curves to match the vibes of your day. Most of my editing work is inspired by a moody film look. I do tend to do a couple head swaps in the big family pictures. I will include black and white versions of similar shot photos when I feel the moment captured is right. Usually I try to just stay honest to the moment.
Q: Can I see a full wedding gallery? A: Sure thing! If you want to get more of a sense what
Q: Will my photos be posted publicly on your site or social media? A: I love to brag about my awesome clients, but if you would rather not have me share your pictures I totally understand! I do like to share recent work on my website and social media just to keep things up to date.
Q: Will our photos be featured on your blog? A: Blogging is a great tool for me to be able to showcase a full wedding day with followers, friends, and prospective clients. Again I completely understand if you would like to keep your wedding day private.
Q: Do I need to order prints through you? A: I highly recommend that you order prints through your gallery, but it is not required. The difference in quality is huge when it comes to ordering through a professional lab, so I encourage clients to let me help with prints! 19
Q: We are ready to book how do we reserve our wedding date? A: A 25% non refundable retainer & a signed contract are required to get your date locked on the calendar. The remainder of the balance can be set up as a payment plan, but otherwise is due before your wedding day gallery is delivered to you.
