I have a laid back casual style and I like to try my best to put you at ease during your shoot.  No matter what sort of photos you are hoping to create, I would love to help you to bring those visions to creation!  I will spend time with you before the session to make sure that we cover all our bases when planning for the perfect session to meet your needs. We can meet in person for coffee to plan your session or by text or phone call. I want make it as convenient and hassle free as possible.  

Most sessions are shot outside. Most sessions are conducted in local parks and common areas. Sessions can also be conducted on private property if permission is obtained. Unfortunately, I am at the mercy of Mother Nature and weather is a factor so your session could be rescheduled at short notice due to weather related issues. When this happens, I will do everything I can to make sure we get your session rescheduled in a timely manner. 

Wardrobe can make all the difference in your portraits. During your pre-session planning consultation we can discuss colors and clothing choice to help you make sure your clothes complement the setting and the style of your session.  Be creative! Wear complementary colors and be conscious of background when choosing colors and clothing style. I can always provide examples if you just aren't sure. Please don't hesitate to ask for ideas.

Bring props! You are encouraged to bring items to add a personal aspect to your photos. Have an idea for a pose or certain prop? Run it by me! I'm up for anything!

But most importantly, bring your smile (or don't! if that's your thing) and be ready to have a laid back photo experience

Your portraits are WORKS OF ART and they deserve to been seen and enjoyed for years to come. I want you to see them hanging on your walls or shared with your family and friends.

After your session, you will be given a time frame for the completion of your images.  Depending on the type of session you scheduled, we will either set up an appointment for a gallery reveal where I will come to you, coffee in hand, to help you decide the products to best fit your needs, or you will be given a date you can expect to receive a link to your online gallery.  I can assist with design and help you decide on wall art or products that would be best to display your new art. Not sure what size or type of print would look best on a certain wall? I can help!  Of course, if you would rather download digital images with release, those can be purchased as well.   

Sessions have different pricing depending on the type of session, length of session, location, and cost involved.  Please inquire by filling out the Contact page for more detailed pricing.
