A relaxed conversation about your vision. We’ll chat about your personal style, the stories you’d love your portraits to tell, and the little details that matter most to you. This is your chance to share your ideas, whether it’s a specific look, a meaningful location, or a special moment you want captured.

Guidance on styling and locations. Together, we’ll go over wardrobe ideas, discuss colors and tones that photograph beautifully, and talk through possible locations. Whether you’re drawn to the coastline, the forest, a family home, or an urban backdrop, we’ll find the perfect setting for your session.

A full walkthrough of the process. I’ll guide you step by step through what will happen on session day and beyond. From how long the shoot will take, to what happens after, to when you’ll see your finished images — no surprises, just clarity.

Final preparations and booking. Before you leave, we’ll take care of the creation fee, complete your model release, and officially lock in your session date. This ensures everything is reserved and ready for you.

Booking is so easy!

I believe your portrait experience should feel personal and stress-free — from our very first conversation to the moment you receive your finished artwork.
