The Portrait Experience
What to expect when you book with me
From the moment you inquire, the experience begins with personalized planning. Taking the time to truly know you—your partner and your family—allows each session to feel authentic and uniquely yours. I will guide you through every detail, from selecting locations and curated outfits to posing that feels natural. Together, we create a session—and images—that reflect your vision and tell your story beautifully. My goal is for you to relax, enjoy the moment, and simply be yourselves. The experience doesn’t end when the session does. I continue to guide you through the image selection and ordering process, ensuring your photographs are transformed into tangible artwork. Your art deserves to be cherished and seen everyday.
Preparing for a photography session can feel overwhelming, from selecting the perfect outfits to choosing meaningful locations and knowing how to pose. You deserve an experience that feels effortless and fun. From the moment you inquire to the final unveiling of the images you’ll proudly display in your home, I am there to guide you with intention and expertise every step of the way. Your photographs are more than digital files—they are heirlooms meant to be seen, felt, and lived with daily. I believe in serving my clients at the highest level, and every client I work with leaves with timeless artwork that preserves their family and/or life story beautifully. Photography is more than digital images— your family, your love - it is art.
My Approach
As your photographer, my goal is to create a memorable client experience. Before each session, I spend time getting to know my clients and help them prepare for their session. It is important I get to know what they are comfortable with and what they are envisioning for their photos. I love shooting in a documentary and candid style where I can capture the raw emotions. When you look back at your photos on your wall, shelf, or desk, I want you to remember having a good time. Let's capture your memories and turn them into beautiful heirlooms!

FAQ
DO YOU OFFER IN-HOME SESSIONS OR ONLY OUTDOOR/STUDIO?
I offer all the sessions listed above. I like to take pictures at locations my clients love and find meaningful to them. Some prefer taking pictures in their home, a place where they feel comfortable. Some prefer studio, which is a more controlled environment. I adapt to my client's wants and needs.
WHAT IF I DON’T KNOW HOW TO POSE?
That is okay! If you do not feel comfortable or know how to pose, it is my job to guide you.
I like to use poses that fit each person's personality, leaving everyone feeling confident and happy. I guide with natural poses. I want you to feel and look like you.
During the design consultation, we will go over poses that you may like and prefer, helping you feel prepared and ready for your session.
HOW DO I BOOK?
The booking process is very simple. All you have to do is inquire and fill out my contact form on my inquire page.
After receiving your inquiry, I will respond within 30 minutes to a few hours to schedule your consultation. Your session will be scheduled during the consultation.
Each booking requires a 25% retainer. The rest can be paid the week of our session.
WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS OR SOMEONE GETS SICK?
In a case like this, we can reschedule the session. I am very flexible and do not mind working with my clients.
Rescheduling due to weather or illness is not an extra charge. Things happen and that is ok!
CAN YOU HELP DESIGN WALL ART OR ALBUMS?
Of course! I will help you through the whole process. We will work together to design your wall art and albums.
You will have the opportunity to look at mock ups of your wall art on your wall as well as mock ups of your album.
We will choose the images you want for your albums and design their placement together.
WHAT HAPPENS IF MY KIDS DON’T COOPERATE?
It is normal for kids to not want to sit through an hour and a half long session. I want all of my sessions to not only be enjoyable for the parents, but also for the kids.
If they do not cooperate, that is just fine! I love to take out the time to show personal interest in them and focus my poses around things and activities they enjoy.
Breaks are a must for kids. If they need a little break, we can take that break. The kids should have fun, too!
