Ethical marketing is important to me specifically in spaces that encourage vulnerability.
My Offerings
Before making this commitment to yourself, I want you to feel empowered with the information you need to choose the collection that works best for you. There are no minimum purchases necessary nor do you have to purchase print products in order to receive your digital files. I want your lasting impression of this experience to be one where you were listened to and your boundaries respected. That’s also why you’ll have full body autonomy during your time with me: I’ll only share your photos with your consent.

Step 1
Fill out the contact form on our website to ask us any questions you may have and to receive our Investment Guide. From there, you'll choose a Collection, sign a contract and remit a non-refundable retainer to book your date.
Step 2
Once you've completed the booking documents, we'll send over an email that will help you prepare for your session including what to wear and where to shop. The difference between a good photoshoot and a great one depends on how much time you spend preparing.
Step 3
You'll arrive a few minutes early to your session so that we can begin on time. Once your hair and makeup is finished (if you've included it) I'll turn up the tunes and we'll get started! I'll model each pose for you and give encouragements throughout the shoot so that you feel comfortable. And with your permission, I'll adjust hair and straps as we go.
Step 4
After the session, about three weeks later, you'll receive your online gallery of edited, high resolution photos. If you included any print products in your Collection, we'll begin the design process. Once you approve the design, I'll send it into production.
Albums & Prints
Albums
Our leather-bound lay flat albums are hand-crafted and come in three sizes with the option for a cover engraving and over ten colors to choose from. Your album will include ten spreads (twenty pages) each printed on thick, matted archival paper.
An album makes a great gift for a partner or as a keepsake for yourself.
Matted Prints + Box Set
Each box includes six prints with museum grade matting. Engraving is available for personalization along with different colored linens and silks to choose from.
The Box Set serves as a really lovely personal item - in the past, my clients have kept these on their dressers as part of their bedroom decor.
Please note
Due to the nature of the photographs, we use a small-batch printer for the products above that solely works with professional artists to limit the number of people who view your images. Regular glossy prints in a variety of sizing may also be ordered through your digital gallery. Please note, however, these are ordered through a large printing company with less privacy.
A recent study showed that holding a physical photograph in one’s hands activates the part of the brain that helps one to remember experiences. By doing so, you’re actually remembering the experience better than you would viewing the images on a computer or cell phone.
