The high school senior who walks in nervous and leaves standing taller. Couples sprawled in fields or curled up on couches, completely at ease with each other and somehow with me too. Expectant parents with hands on growing bellies, already so in love with someone they haven't met yet. Families with little ones running circles around us while parents laugh and chase and finally exhale when everyone's together. Business owners who need images that feel authentic, not staged, because their brand is built on being real. These sessions are where I get to witness you in whatever chapter you're living right now. The energy is different every time, but the goal stays the same: make it feel natural, make it stress-free, and create images that show you exactly as you are in this unrepeatable moment.
Dating, engaged, married five years or fifteen. It doesn't matter what stage you're in, couples sessions always end up being some of my favorite work. Because when it's just the two of you, the dynamic shifts. You relax into each other, the jokes come easier, and suddenly I'm photographing all these tiny moments that perfectly capture your relationship. The way one of you always makes the other laugh. How you naturally gravitate toward each other without thinking about it. The look that passes between you that means something only you two understand. We'll spend an hour in good light, probably somewhere that feels like you, and you'll walk away with images that don't just show what you look like together. They'll show exactly how it feels to be loved by your person.
Whether you're brand new parents still figuring it out or you've got teenagers taller than you, family sessions are where I get to see how you all move together. The chaos of wrangling littles. The way older kids roll their eyes but smile anyway. Parents shooting glances at each other that say "this is a lot but it's ours." I keep things natural and low-pressure because the goal isn't perfection. It's capturing your family as you actually are: the loudness, the tenderness, the inside jokes, and the ordinary beautiful mess of loving your people.
You're in this beautiful in-between space. Not who you were before, not quite who you'll be after. Maternity sessions document that. The growing belly, the way you instinctively rest your hand there, the look between you and your partner that's equal parts excitement and anticipation. We'll find soft light and let you be exactly where you are right now: already loving someone fiercely, already protective, already changed.
*please note: Maternity sessions including siblings will be booked at the family session rate ($600)*
Studio sessions strip everything else away. No location to worry about, no weather to plan around. Just beautiful controlled light, you in something that makes you feel incredible, and images that are timeless and intimate. All the focus exactly where it should be.
For business owners who need images that actually look like them. We'll shoot in your workspace or somewhere with natural light and clean backgrounds. Forty-five minutes, one outfit change, and you'll walk away with authentic images that don't make you cringe when you post them.
When you want something clean and colorful. Pick your backdrop color, bring two outfits, and we'll spend an hour creating polished images with a consistent look. Perfect if you need cohesive branding content that feels professional without being stuffy.
For when you need the full picture. We'll start with headshots in your workspace, then I'll photograph you actually doing what you do with a real client. Up to ninety minutes, one outfit change, and images that show both who you are and what you offer. Real work, and real connection.
