These sessions can take place anywhere special to you or in my home studio depending on your needs. There are no rules! I work with my clients to choose a location (indoors or out) that fits what you envision.

I will walk you through fun prompts and some posing to get a dynamic variety of images for you to choose from. We will walk through both playful and serious, more posed shots.

I am always enthusiastically open to any creative ideas (unique theme, location, props, etc) that will make the photos feel authentically you. I am always up for an adventure session as well, these can be fun with a more dramatic outfit and we can hike to a beautiful location and send some more time getting those epic photos.

An outfit change is welcome but keep in mind a lot of the locations outdoors won't have easy access to a changing room so bring something you can change into easily. I am a big fan of outdoor outfit changes as long as you are! Even just switched up accessories or jacket can be a nice idea for variety.

Decide what feel you'd like for your portrait photo gallery. Do you want these to be casual? Do you want an excuse to buy a new beautiful gown (yes please)?! Once you have a vision you can decide on an outfit and a possible 2nd outfit to change into half way through the session.

Things to avoid:

Other than that just wear what you feel great in! Checking out Pinterest can be a fun way to get inspiration. I am a fan of bold but not too bright colors, but mostly I am a fan of you feeling your best. If you feel good you can't go wrong!

WHAT TO WEAR

Portraits and headshot sessions are great for professionals, seniors, Maternity, or just people who want to commemorate who they are at this part of their lives. I also offer family portraits.

Neon colors (these don't read well)
Stripes that are too close together (they create a strange effect)

WHAT TO BRING

An outfit or accessory change (only for one hour+ sessions)
A favorite Blanket
Any special props that feel like you (guitar, bouquet, champagne, bike, boat, compostable glitter, colored smoke bomb, whatever)! Just give me a heads up on props so I can plan (:
