The Experience

From hello to your gallery, start to finish.

Here’s exactly what working together looks like, so you always know what comes next.

STEP 01

Inquire

Send a quick note or pick a session online. Tell me who’s in the photos, what the occasion is, and the feeling you’re after.

What you’ll hear from me: You’ll hear back from me personally, usually within a day.

STEP 02

Book and secure your date

Choose your package, date and time, then pay a 30% retainer to hold your spot.

What you’ll hear from me: A confirmation email with everything you need.

STEP 03

Plan together

A short call or questionnaire: location, outfits, who’s coming and any must-have shots.

What you’ll hear from me: A simple plan, so the day feels easy.

STEP 04

Get ready

A prep guide arrives the week before: what to wear, what to bring, and what to expect.

What you’ll hear from me: Reminders, tips and a quick check-in.

STEP 05

The shoot

I guide every pose and keep it fun, so nobody feels awkward in front of the camera. Just laugh and be you.

What you’ll hear from me: Direction the whole way through.

STEP 06

Your gallery

Your edited images arrive in a private online gallery, where you can download, share, and order prints and albums.

What you’ll hear from me: Your memories, ready to keep forever.

Good to know

The fine print, in plain words.

Book ahead. Sessions can be booked up to 7 days before the date you want.

Retainer. A 30% retainer holds your date, and the balance is due before your session. Cancellation and rescheduling terms are in your signed agreement.

Cancelling. Cancel at least 14 days before your session and the rest of your payment is returned. Cancellations after that, or no-shows, aren’t refunded.

Rescheduling. Reschedule at least 14 days ahead. Later than that, the booking is forfeited and a new one is needed.

Ready to begin?

Pick your session, your day and your time. I’ll take it from there.
