MY LAID-BACK APPROACH to photography WILL LEAVE YOU FEELING RELAXED, COMFORTABLE, AND CONFIDENT IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA
Being an introvert, I know it can be intimidating to be in front of the camera. Don't worry! During our shoot I'll keep things fun and relaxed so that you can be your authentic self for the camera. Just imagine you are walking down a beautiful beach on a warm day, taking in the sights, feeling the warm spray of the ocean, and there just happens to be a camera present. That is the vibe I like to bring to all of my photo shoots. This process even works for professional headshots! My goal is to make you feel comfortable and look your best without having to work too hard. After all, the photos are for you to cherish forever!

Delivering photos
Within one week from the day of your shoot, you'll receive a link to an online gallery where you can view and select your favorite photos. Within 1-2 weeks from selecting your favorite photos, you'll be able to download the final edited images from the gallery to see yourself in all your natural glory!
What should I wear?
This largely depends on what type of shoot we are doing, the theme, and the weather. But generally speaking, you should always be comfortable. If we are outdoors, you may dress accordingly for the weather. More often than not, an outfit with neutral and solid colors will look the best (white, blue, gray, etc) because it won't distract from your beautiful face! This will almost always apply unless you have a specific outfit that you want to wear for your shoot. There are many online guides that go into detail on what to wear for a photoshoot. But you can always ask me before your photo session!
