I believe every little bit of life is worth celebrating — from everyday moments to the extraordinary. I want to hear all about your story - both personal and professional. I will capture a variety of loosely posed and completely candid moments to ensure the moments that matter to you can be celebrated for a lifetime.
I love to photograph you in real, meaningful settings that convey the essence of who you are and what you love. I work hard to make sure the entire process is stress-free for my clients from start to finish, with the end result being beautifully crafted photo prints and products to be treasured for many years to come.
I want my images to tug at your heart, to bring tears to your eyes, and to show you how beautiful and wonderful you truly are. I want to create timeless images that capture your authentic self. Portraits that you are proud to share, and display on your walls.
I capture the moments that matter most to you.
MORE THAN JUST SHOWING UP AND TAKING YOUR PHOTOS
You are worth it! When was the last time you truly loved a portrait of yourself or a loved one? When was the last time you were professionally photographed? Are you documenting a special time in your life, are you just wanting some amazing portraits of yourself or your family? Are you rebranding your business? I can help!
When you book with me, I will work with you every step of the way from booking your session, what to wear, all the way to your reveal session, and final delivery of your heirloom-quality products. My goal is to create beautiful legacy portraits for you and your family that you will treasure for generations.

After you’ve gone through my portfolio and decided that you like what you see, let's set up a phone, SKYPE, or in-person consultation. You can send us an email inquiry, or give us a call. This is where we will set up a time to meet in person, or SKYPE to chat more about your portrait session, your goals, and the type of session and portraits you envision.
Some of the questions we'll run through: Who do you want to be photographed with? What style of portraits would you love? Are they for branding, business, senior portraits, maternity, family, or “something special” portraits just for you? We’ll discuss all of this. In addition, we'll chat about wardrobe styling ideas to help bring your vision to life. The information provided during our consultation will help me create the perfect session for you. We’ll get to know each other better, and how we can best serve your photography needs, answer any questions you might have about working with us, and figure out if we're the best fit for each other.

Once you’re ready to book your session, the booking process is super easy! A contract, invoice, and final details will be emailed to you. Once the session fee/retainer is paid, your contract is signed/returned -- you are officially on my schedule!
The session fee is $495.00 and is paid before your session date. The session fee/retainer includes; Design, and styling, professional hair & makeup, a fully guided portrait session, and the final reveal.
Next, you will receive a welcome packet email that will assist you in preparing for your portrait session with plenty of additional details.

We will work together to create a highly personalized experience for your session. All portrait sessions are custom-designed for each client. Whether it’s beauty/glamour, personal branding, family, senior portraits, maternity, or couture portraits just for you we will create a portrait session to match your style and aesthetic!
Not sure what to wear? That’s okay! You can bring with you 3-5 outfit options on the day of the session so you have plenty to choose from. (I’ll even help you decide!) I also have a small studio wardrobe you’re welcome to look through prior to your session. You’ll likely wind up wearing 2 or 3 outfit choices, but it’s always good to have options!

On the day of your session, you have the option to get pampered with professional hair & makeup. You'll be the star of the day! After hair & make-up is finished, we'll transition into your portrait session.
You will be carefully guided and coached throughout your session with posing to achieve natural looks and expressions and capture authentic beautifully styled portraits of you -- that you’ll love. It’s a day of pampering and celebrating YOU, your family, and your life. I will direct and guide your poses and expressions, so you look natural, beautiful, and connected. If you’re typically a little camera-shy, don’t worry. My goal is to help you feel comfortable so your natural beauty and personality shine through during your session.
(Hair & Makeup is not included with every portrait session.)

I know you can hardly wait to see your portraits, and it will be so worth the wait!
Once your portraits are ready for viewing, we will have your reveal session at my studio (or via SKYPE) where you will view your gallery of beautiful portraits. You will choose from retouched and edited images. During this time you choose which images you would like to purchase, and it will be difficult to choose only one! We work hard to create an experience where you love all your portraits.
You only purchase the portraits you love!

You decide which portrait collection you would like to purchase when you see your final edited portraits during your reveal session. You have options of beautiful framed portraits for your walls, a gorgeous leather reveal box of your favorite matted portraits, or both. We have a collection for you, and you only purchase what you love!
There is no ordering minimum, most of my clients invest an average of $1,800 on their sessions - less than what it would cost to purchase a cup of coffee every day throughout the year. A la carte images are also available for purchase. All photos purchased include the high-resolution digital image.
Your prints, wall art, and books will be ready in a matter of weeks! I will notify you once everything is ready to be picked up, and schedule a convenient time for you.
I'm excited! let's book ->
