This is our process:

I. Initial Consultation.
We’ll start with a chat over the phone. This is where we’ll get to know each other and discuss your vision for the session. Whether you're leaning toward an in-studio or on-location shoot (or both), we’ll chat about what makes you you—your style, interests, and how you want your portraits to reflect this exciting time. During this time, we’ll also go over pricing and answer any questions you may have. Once you feel confident and excited, we’ll go ahead and book your session date!
2. planning the session
Next, we’ll dive into planning all the details! We’ll select the perfect location(s), curate wardrobe options, and choose any meaningful props that will help bring your story to life. We’ll discuss how you’d like to display your portraits. As a trained interior designer, I can also offer expert advice on how your portraits will complement your home’s aesthetic, from ideal color schemes to the perfect placement for future wall art. For those considering wall art, I provide complimentary in-home consultations to ensure your portraits seamlessly integrate into your space.
3. The Photo Shoot
When your session day arrives, it’s all about having fun and feeling comfortable! You’ll start by getting pampered with professional makeup or grooming to make sure you look and feel your best. Whether we're in the studio or at a location that’s special to you, I’ll guide you through poses, angles, and lighting to capture the best version of yourself. You’ll feel relaxed, confident, and most importantly—like yourself.
4. View and Select Your Images
After the shoot, we’ll schedule a viewing session where you’ll see your images for the first time! Together, we’ll review your favorite shots and select the ones that you want to purchase. If an in-home consultation occurred, I will also provide a mockup of your walls so you can see exactly how your chosen portraits will look in your space, making it easier to finalize your display options. From albums to stunning wall art, I’ll help you design custom pieces that fit perfectly within your home
Now that everything is complete, it’s time to enjoy your beautiful portraits! Each purchased image will be professionally edited and retouched, ensuring you look your best. For wall art, we provide high-end retouching with master-level finishing before sending the final pieces to the printers. With your portraits beautifully displayed, you can relive the joy and excitement of this special time every day. Whether they’re framed on your walls or carefully preserved in an album, these portraits will become timeless keepsakes that bring your story to life.
