    Ask me anything! I want to make sure you are photographed to showcase your uniqueness, so let's hear all about YOU!

  • WARDROBE CONSULTATION

    Let's design the look and feel of your session. From choosing locations, wardrobe, accessories, backdrops and lighting, I will walk you through how we will visually communicate who you are. All sessions include access to my studio wardrobe collection.

  • PHOTO SESSION

    This is the most FUN part! Whether we take care of your hair and makeup or you do it on your own, you will feel like a rockstar! No need to worry about where your hands should go, where to look or what expression to make. I will guide you the whole way!

  • IMAGE PREVIEW & ORDERING SESSION

    About 2-3 weeks after your session, I will invite you back to view your portraits and place your order. The great thing is that you only buy the images you love! Who needs 4 images of the same pose and similar expression?! Or try one of our new Worry-Free packages and get your gallery delivered online!

A portrait is not just a digital file.  In fact, it is a whole EXPERIENCE, at least it should be.  It’s the preparations such as getting your hair updated and nails done, choosing wardrobe that communicates your personality, choosing which lighting setup and backdrop will go well with your outfits and having professional hair and makeup done on the day of that make it a special experience.  I say go out and buy that fabulous dress that you love but might not ever wear again.  It will be immortalized with you in your portrait!

The EXPERIENCE continues after the session too!  When your images are finished being retouched, I will invite you back to view them and make your purchase.  Each image you purchase will include BOTH the printed artwork and digital copy.

Speaking of the Artwork… it is breathtaking.  The company I choose to print with is the finest quality I have ever seen.  Everything is handmade, printed in Italy and museum quality. Artwork typically takes around 6 weeks to get back, but they are absolutely worth waiting for and will look stunning on your walls.

Fine Art

Are you looking for a different type of portrait?  A contemporary fine art portrait allows me to connect the visual and emotional stories of your life using symbolism, color, theme, props, wardrobe and setting.  Each image is truly a one of a kind, commissioned work of art.  Please contact me for further information.  Cost will depend on a variety of factors.
