How it Works

FIRST THIS

I always take a mix of candid and posed shots so you can be sure to get a posed, smiling for the camera shot, but also relaxed shots that reflect more of your personality.

THEN THIS

I always start by introducing myself and getting to know you! I want to make a connection with you before we begin to help you feel more comfortable with me!

THEN THIS

I work efficiently during and after your session. I'll help you feel comfortable and confident, and work quickly to photograph and deliver a full gallery with lots of variety.
