Experience
Working with Me
Welcome to an experience that's all about YOU!
From the moment you fill out that first contact form, you're not just booking a session- you're beginning a comfortable and personalized experience. I want you to feel right at home. We'll chat about what makes your story unique, how we an capture those moments that are special to you, and I'll be there to guide you and provide gentle direction, so you never feel lost or posed.
I'm not just about taking photos, but about building a relationship and understanding your vision. By the time we're done with the photoshoot, and if I did my job right, you'll hopefully feel like you just finished taking photos with a friend!
My goal is to make this as easy as possible and to deliver photos that feel true to you, heartfelt, and yours to keep!
STEP 01
Fill out My "Contact Me" form
Whether you've made up your mind or if you have questions regarding a package, complete my form in the Contact tab and I will respond ASAP.
STEP 02
Booking
I will coordinate with you on a time that works best for both of us! After we have clear understanding of what to expect, I'll send over my contract as well as an invoice for my retainer fee. Once these are signed and submitted, I'll send a questionnaire to understand some finer details that will help me ensure I can tailor this experience to you and/or your loved ones! I will also send over a styling guide, a list of items in my client closet that are free to use and offer assistance with location if needed. I will make sure I am capturing what you find important or are desiring out of our time together!
STEP 03
Picture time
The fun begins! I will arrive 15-30 min early to ensure I can provide you an exact location to meet me and ensure the location is good-to-go! I'll use some of the info captured in the questionnaire I previously sent over as framework for our session. Don't worry about "being awkward" or not knowing how to pose! I will help guide you in prompts that will capture sweet angles, moments and connections. You are the art and you'd be surprised what comes naturally out of just being yourself! While I will help "pose" you, I love capturing the real stuff too... the tears, tantrums, the quiet in-between. One day those are going to be the photos that bring it all rushing back.
STEP 04
Delivery of Photos
I will delivery your photos within two weeks of us taking pictures. I will notify you via our established communications (email, text, messenger, etc.) that your gallery is being delivered via my online gallery for private viewing. You'll be able to download high resolution photos from this link.
Frequently Asked Questions
01. Help- this is my frist photoshoot, what should I know?
It'll be fine! I will help guide and give gentle direction and advice regarding styling, locations, and poses/prompts. There will be open communication via phone, email or social media (up to you). My job is to bring out the art that you already are, and we will nail down those special moments!
02. How many photos Will I receive?
The number of photos promised is captured in my photography packages! If you're wanting more photos than what was captured, I have availability to offer more at an additional fee. My pricing page captures this information best.
03. How should I style myself/my loved ones?
I will help you! I will provide a guide that helps you nail down color pallets to marry the vision you are aiming for. Remember, I will be providing you a questionnaire to send back to me- understanding your vision will help me help you in coordinating what will look best in photos!
04. Do you offer rush editing for faster delivery?
I do! My turn around time is within two weeks but if you're needing your photos sooner, I can prioritize your edits and deliver them sooner. Let me know your timeline, and I'd be happy to discuss the options that work best for you!
05. Do I order prints through you?
Nope! I will deliver high resolution photos and can provide recommendations for printing services for best quality, but you won't order prints through me!
06. What's the expectation for Payments?
Non-refundable retainers are due at booking, and full payment must be made before the day of our photoshoot!
