what kind of session are you looking for?
This is my process:
I. consultation.
We will schedule a consultation (virtual or in person) go over session planning details - date/time, location, wardrobe, etc. Then we will go over all the beautiful prints and products I offer.
II. portrait session.
This is when we bring your vision to life!
Just relax and enjoy the experience!
III. Deliver memories.
You will view your images for the first time during our ordering appointment where you will choose the artwork and images that you want. Every image you choose is hand edited and comes with a matching digital file. Once I've finished the editing, I will deliver an online gallery for you to have and share while you wait for your wall art or albums to be created!
As soon as your order arrives, I will inspect it and arrange for pickup/delivery or ship your items to you if you were only here for vacation.

FAQ
How do I book a session?
Fill out my contact form. I will give you a call and we can quickly go over details and availability.
Next, is our consultation and planning appointment (virtual or in person - your preference) where we will go over your session goals, schedule our date/time, location, client guides, and sign the agreement and pay the session fee.
Planning my session...
During our consultation and planning appointment we will create a personalized experience unique to you and your goals! In this appointment, we will discuss locations, session date/time, props, etc... I have client guides to help with planning outfits, wall art in your home, and we will go over all the print and product options.
Most outdoor sessions are scheduled during golden hour - at sunrise or an hour before sunset.
What is your turn around time?
Your viewing and ordering appointment is typically within a week of your session. This is the FUN part! I curate a collection of the best of the best, high quality images from our portrait session, they are lightly edited for you to choose your most favorite images from. Only buy what you LOVE, no minimum purchase amount required.
I will send you your purchased digital images in an online gallery for you to enjoy and share as soon as they're finished! Prints and products can take about 4 - 6 weeks as some items are handmade.
Once everything is in, I will arrange pickup/delivery or ship your items to you if you were only here for vacation.
Photo Retouching
Each image is meticulously hand-edited consistent with my current style (timeless; bright, bold and true to life) and lightly retouched removing minor imperfections whenever possible. Generally if it is something that will be gone within a few weeks (a blemish or scratch for example) I will remove those automatically.
I DO NOT give out unedited images as they are shot in RAW format and are not a finished product or an accurate representation of my work.
Prints or Digitals?
Online galleries are nice but... I think it's a disservice to you if I were to stop there. You'll still get that online gallery to enjoy, share, and have for safe keeping but have you ever been overwhelmed or confused when it comes to printing your portraits? My service offers you the best of both worlds.
"What size should I order?"
"What paper type should I be printing on?"
"Why is this cropping my photo all wrong?!"
"What is going on with the colors/why is my print too dark/bright?"
Or even the dreaded... analysis paralysis: "I don't know which images to choose!"
I'm going to take the guesswork and frustration out of it all and take care of everything for you so your treasured photographs come to life as impactful artwork made from the highest quality materials for you to display proudly in your home and so they don't end up just sitting on your hard drive.
Let me show you the beautiful items I can create for you that you might not have even know you needed!
