Portrait photography
01
Consultation
Personal consultation where we design your dream photo shoot. I want to hear about how you want to be photographed, about the style and look you envision. If you are unsure of what style or look you want, no problem. That is why I want to meet you in person, to get to know you and be able to make some recommendations. Together we will select up to five unique looks to give you a variety of styles during your photo shoot. You can choose from traditional portraits, themed / vintage look, glamour, boudoir or pin-up. Also, if you need some professional shots for business use we can accomodate. You are welcome to include your family in a few shots towards the end of the session at no extra charge. We can shoot strictly in studio, outdoors or both.
02
Photo Shoot
The day of your dream session will be unforgetable! My team and I will take care of everything so you will be relaxed, confident and look absolutely stunning. The stylists that I work with are awesome! We will start with professional make up and hair at 10 a.m. Please, be on time as the shoot schedule does not have extra time built in. The transformation takes about two hours so we will start shooting at around 12. Each look will take approximately 20 minutes. Take a look at some BEFORE AND AFTER HERE. Sit back, relax and enjoy the experience! During the day we will take a coffee break.
03
Reveal
This is the most rewarding part of your experience. It is a separate personal appointment, usually 2 weeks after your session, to view your beautiful portraits, select the images that you want and take them home with you from the reveal. All portraits are artfully edited, matted and professionally printed with the best inks and paper available. You can see and feel the quality for yourself. Our policy is that if you don’t love any of the images from your session, you are not obligated to purchase. You buy only what you love.

Skin
Skin
Please come to the studio the morning of your session with your skin completely clean and free of all cosmetics. Any eyebrow or facial hair grooming should be done a few days before your session. It is really best to avoid exposure to the sun for a couple of weeks prior to your shoot (no tanning or spray tan within two weeks from your session).
Hair
Hair
Arrive to the studio with your hair clean and completely dry (no hair products and do not straighten or curl your hair). If your hair is not your natural color please get your roots touched up prior to your shoot

Nails
Nails should be neatly trimmed with a nude/blush tone. A fresh simple manicure and pedicure will be perfect with a single color (avoid patterns on your nails).
