At my sessions, I'll pose you most of the time! Do you think those “lifestyle” moments AREN'T posed? They totally are – but it's what happens after I get you into that position where the magic starts to work. I move fast so that you and everyone else won't have time to think twice or feel weird. I play games, give prompts (family friendly or a little more dirty because let's face it, I have a pretty dark sense of humor), and bring a speaker for music to set the mood because I'm not a fan of awkward silence.
I don't generally fiddle with countless props – I may bring some blankets or a unique chair, but that's usually the extent of it! I also now offer a slowly growing client closet of women's dresses (S-2X) and unique hats, because I just love a good hat!
Working full time in a public library children's department with programming experience has given me the best advantage with wild kiddos, conversation skills, and the ability to work under pressure.
I'm a natural light photographer, so most of my sessions must take place an hour before sunset to ensure you get the best photos possible! It's always SO worth it. If it's gloomy outside we just roll with it! I do not have an indoor studio -- but sometimes have opportunities to shoot in Airbnb's, public spaces, and even come to your house if you've natural good indoor lighting!
Be prepared to adventure a little bit – I love finding unique locations that may sometimes require a little walk, climb, or drive to the middle of nowhere!
all sessions require a $50 non-refundable booking deposit that goes towards the cost of the session!
