There is no right or wrong way to dress for your session. Your style is a large part of who you are 🔥 My only goal is that you are comfortable in whatever you choose! Casual and barefoot, colorful and vibrant, a minimalist sporting neutral colors, or something entirely your own. If at any point you would love input or guidance, I am a text or phone call away!

S T R U T

+ Accessorize: Bring hats, jewelry, jackets, whatever you love!

+ Be Yourself: Don’t wear clothes you aren’t comfortable in, it will show all over your face! Pick something you are really excited about!! 💃🏻 If you notice that you keep pulling or tugging on your clothes, you will do that in your photos, too!

+ New or Used: Unless you want brand-new clothing, it isn’t required!!

Bring what you have, and what represents you. All styles are welcome. All I ask is that you come with clothes on… Toddlers don’t abide by this, but that’s none of our business.

Got Kids?

+ Bring the Goods: If you are a Parent, you know the necessity of a favorite toy, snack or even a change of clothes!! Bring it all!

+ Let em’ run: I will never expect a child to sit still for portraits!! I shoot fast and efficiently - I just need you to lean into the silliness, too 🤍

+ Melt Downs: They are part of the gig. Little kids have big emotions and sometimes they have them when we are shooting. If this happens, know it’s okay! We will work through it, soothe in anyway we need, and still create work we will be excited about

WANT AN AMAZING SESSION?

  • Have all outfits laid out the night before. Pack your snacks, accessories and any kid distractions in an easy to carry bag! We will also do quite a bit of walking so please bring an extra pair of shoes or sandals if you plan on wearing heels :)

  • If you don’t have any other plans - Stop by the City Museum with your partner or grab a bite to eat after your session! Maybe check out an escape room! Whatever you do, Make this day about you and your favorite people. You will already have pants on, so… why not?

  • We all want to look our absolute best. But, Sometimes we get so worked up about looking PERFECT that we become self-conscious and stop having a good time. When you walk into your session, meet any tough feelings or thoughts you may experience with compassion. Gently guide yourself with respect and admiration for who you are as a person. Your only job is to show up in something that makes you feel good and to talk to yourself with kindness. I will guide you through everything else :)

    Just remember to breathe and I will handle the rest :) Thanks for existing!!

FAQS

  • DO YOU RETOUCH?

    As gently and naturally as possible 🎨

    It’s my golden rule.

    I remove bruises, clothing lines, cuts and makeup mishaps. I will clean up fly aways within reason. I do not remove tattoos, body rolls, stretch marks, or nip and tuck you away. Why?

    Because those are all signs that you are human. I will always respect and honor your insecurities, as well as make you look hella good, I just won’t photoshop you to oblivion 😂

  • LATE POLICY

    What if I’m late?! It’s happens from time to time! Just keep me updated!! Unfortunately though, depending on how late you are, I cannot guarantee time, sunlight, weather and other important factors if we get too far behind.

    If there is time remaining, I will make art to the best of my ability!! However, there are no guarantees due to the day's schedule 🌼

  • RESCHEDULES & CANCELLATIONS

    You can reschedule your session once, subject to availability, if things just don’t work out. Refunds are not available - only transferred or credited to future sessions ☀️

    In the case of inclement weather, I will inform you as soon as I know if it isn't safe or ideal to shoot. We will work together to find a date that works for both parties. 🌧

    No Call / No Shows, I legally hold the right to cancel your contract with zero refund and a boot from my Client list 🥲 Always reach out, no matter how hard the situation. It’s far better than the boot 🥾

  • PAYMENT PLANS

    You make the payment schedule! Weekly, Bi-Weekly, Monthly or Custom, You decide. The last and final payment must be completed 1 week before your Session 💵

    You will receive automated email reminders each time a payment is due or can set up autopay 🔄
