- The women on your website look like models. I'm not modelesque!
-
Aren't we all hyper critical of ourselves?
Every woman I've photographed is quick to point out her "flaws".
I see only the beauty in you and know exactly how to bring it out.
- I'm not photogenic. I don't take good pictures.
-
Nobody is "photogenic", it's the photographer's job to get good photos.
Posing and lighting are my super powers!
My studio is a safe space for you to relax and let your true self shine!
I'm with you every step of the way, guiding you through different
poses and expressions to give you a variety of gorgeous portraits.
- Do your sessions have a time limit?
-
We do not have a time limit on any session.
We want you to have the time you need to
relax and feel comfortable as well as enjoy
the portrait experience.

You can rest assured that you'll have the time

- Do I get digital files? Do I have to buy printed products?
-
Yes you do get digital files!
All purchased images* are printed and
include the matching social media digital file.
I want you to enjoy your portraits
every day and not have them
reside on a stick in a drawer.
Digital storage devices are constantly
changing so your portraits may not be
accessible in the future.
That's why I offer beautiful
printed portrait products.
Prints are Forever!
I include the matching digital file so
you can share them online.
I do not provide print releases and
I retain the US Copyright on each file.
* Personal Branding/Headshots are hi-res digital packages only
