Before Your Session
We’ll schedule a phone consultation to discuss your ideas and get to know each other. I’ll happily answer your questions during this call and discuss our artistic goals. We’ll also explore your preferences for printed fine art products versus digital images.
We aim to ensure your experience is unique and reflects your style and personality. I encourage you to share any creative ideas or inspirations you have.
Since my photography style is relaxed, choosing a setting where you and your loved ones can truly enjoy each other is essential. Whether it’s an ice cream shop, a favorite wine bar, or the scenic river, I’m here to help you select a backdrop that captures authentic moments and genuine connections.
Let’s work together to make your photography session a memorable and personalized experience! We also have a variety of Studios where we can schedule your photo shoot.
