This is how we have guaranteed and delivered incredible photography experiences to our clients the past 12 years! It's so much more than taking pictures to us. It's preserving your memories and creating your legacy while making you feel like a million bucks... all at the same time. Keep reading to learn about our process and portrait session collections!

Booking
Sessions can take place anywhere from immediately following a proposal to just a few days before the wedding. We’ve found that there isn’t a “good” or “bad” time to take your photos.
Choose a date
I help all my clients choose the perfect location for their session! I'll send you a list of tried and true locations I love to photograph, along with sample galleries to help you find the perfect spot.
Choose a location
There's no need to be a posing pro on the day of your session. I coach and guide my clients through all the posing so your only job is to show up and have FUN! You might, however, be a posing pro when you leave. :)
Session Day!
Within 3 days, bestie! You’ll have fully edited sneak peeks to choose from THREE DAYS AFTER your session, so you have something to tear up about, send to your friends & group chats, and post to social media. I GOTCHU.
Sneak Peeks
Within a 2-3 weeks of your session! All photos taken will go through my hand-picking selection & hand editing process, so that you get the BEST OF THE BEST fully edited photos in print-ready sizes. (With full printing rights!)

2025 & 2026 PORTRAIT SESSION PRICING
Our family sessions are reserved for just your immediate family and can take place anytime of year at indoor or outdoor locations. Upon booking, I'll send you my location guide to choose the best spot for your family!
The ideal time to schedule your maternity photo session is usually in the third trimester, between 26 and 34 weeks (around the 7th and 8th month of pregnancy). Once you're in your last trimester, your belly starts to become more pronounced, with a nice round shape making it the perfect time for photos! Sessions can take place indoor or outdoors.

We’re big believers that images aren’t meant to solely exist in a digital space. One day, most likely, Instagram will be gone, your phone will be replaced and images that you can physically hold in your hand will be the best way to remember those precious moments we captured.
Think about this fact: thirty years ago, if we had delivered you digital images, they would have been on a floppy disk. With the fast updates to technology, you would have no way to access those images today. Even the online galleries we deliver will eventually fade away.
One of the best ways to make your memories last is by ordering an album. These high quality professionally designed albums come in a variety of linen & leather colors. These aren’t the same albums your parents' wedding photos came in. They’re modern, lay perfectly flat and look incredible on a coffee table.
THE PERFECT WAY TO PRESERVE THIS SEASON OF LIFE
(Additional 2-page Spread: $50 each)
PORTRAIT SESSION ALBUMS
After we deliver your gallery, we'll work with you to design an album that will become an heirloom for your family.
Albums must be prepaid before design begins and typically take between 2 - 4 weeks to complete (including revisions).
With the exception of printing errors, all albums are non-returnable. Albums may be ordered anytime before or after the wedding day. The holiday deadline for beginning an order is November 1st.
Maternity sessions are scheduled in the third trimester, anywhere between 26 and 34 weeks. Family sessions can happen anytime!
