Whether it’s for an engagement, an anniversary, or just because you’re madly in love, couples sessions are all about capturing your unique love story.

Bring on the chaos, the giggles, and all the love! Family sessions are all about capturing the real, unfiltered moments—the tickle fights, the big bear hugs, and the goofy faces. We’ll let the kids be kids and the parents be themselves, so you get authentic, joy-filled photos that show the heart of your family.
Say hello to the tiniest toes and sweetest little yawns! Newborn sessions are a relaxed way to capture those first snuggles, sleepy smiles, and oh-so-tiny details of your newest family member.

Booking a session with me is super easy! Start by reaching out through my contact page or sending me a quick message. We’ll chat about what you’re looking for, your vision, and any specific ideas you have in mind. Once we’ve nailed down the details, I’ll send over a booking proposal that includes your contract and retainer payment. After that, your date is locked in! From there, I’m all about making this experience stress-free and enjoyable. We’ll finalize your session location, outfit ideas, and any other details that’ll help bring your vision to life. On the day of the session, it’s all about having fun and capturing those genuine moments. After the shoot, I carefully edit each image and will have your gallery ready for you in about two weeks or less!

Absolutely! I know that being in front of the camera can feel a bit intimidating, but don’t worry—I’ve got you covered. My approach is all about making you feel comfortable and relaxed. Instead of stiff, awkward poses, I’ll guide you with prompts that bring out natural emotions and genuine interactions. Think of it more like hanging out with a friend who happens to have a camera! For families, we’ll play games and capture those candid moments; for couples, I’ll guide you through fun prompts that’ll make you laugh and connect; and for seniors, I’ll highlight your personality and style. The goal is to capture you at your best, so you’ll walk away with photos that feel authentic and true to who you are.

Each package comes with a set number of beautifully edited images that you can download directly from your private online gallery. The exact number will depend on the package you choose, but don’t worry—you’ll have plenty of options to choose from! If you fall in love with more images than what’s included in your package (it happens all the time!), you always have the option to purchase additional images or even upgrade to the full gallery. I want you to have the freedom to take home every moment that matters to you, so I make it easy to add on extra images if you want to.

When you invest in a session with me, you’re getting more than just photos—you’re getting a personalized experience from start to finish. Your investment covers my time, expertise, and the love I pour into capturing and editing your images. Each package includes a set number of high-resolution, professionally edited images delivered in an online gallery. I know photography is an investment, which is why I offer flexible payment plans to make it easier for you to capture your memories. Whether you want to split the payment into two or three installments, we can work together to find a plan that fits your budget.

Mother Nature can be unpredictable, but no worries—I’ve got a plan! If the weather isn’t cooperating on the day of your session, we’ll either wait it out (sometimes the best light happens right after a little rain!) or reschedule to a new date that works for both of us. Your session is all about capturing the best moments, and I want to make sure we have the perfect conditions. If you need to reschedule for any other reason, just let me know as soon as possible, and we’ll find a new date. I understand that life happens, so I’m always willing to be flexible where I can!
What if the weather is bad or I need to reschedule?

Preparation is key to a successful session, and I’m here to help every step of the way! After you book, I’ll send you a detailed session guide with tips on what to wear, how to coordinate outfits, and what to bring along. For the best results, I recommend wearing outfits that make you feel confident and comfortable. Soft, neutral colors work beautifully, but most importantly, choose something that feels like YOU. Feel free to bring any props or personal items that reflect your personality or story—whether it’s your favorite hat, a cozy blanket, or even your dog! If you need more guidance, I’m just a message away and happy to help you plan out all the details.
