Let’s take some pictures!
This isn’t about a photo session, or even the pictures, it’s about You. Forget about posing and feeling stiff in front of the camera. Imagine going on a walk with an old friend, who just happens to have a camera with them. My process is a flow and my only goal is to capture your true self.
My approach
01.
Fill out the form
Once you’ve made up your mind for which session works for you, please complete the form, and I will be getting back to you as soon as possible to lock in your day!
02.
Picture time
The big day! We’ll meet, talk, connect, and get to know each other. I bring squeaky toys, snacks and toys to help kiddoss look at my camera and love to blast Bluey too!

Delivering photos
Typically edited galleries are delivered within one week for family photos and headshots and up to four weeks for weddings.
This is my first photoshoot, what should I know?
Ah so excited to meet you! I aim to keep it fun and casual, let the kids run around and keep them in the moment. I have squeaky toys and will happily act a fool to get your kids laughing naturally and feeling comfy.
What should we wear?
I'd suggest coordinated but not matchy. Earth tones, denim blue, burgundy, mustard/burnt orange as well as navy and dark greens always look great in photos.
Can we include pets in our family session?
Yes, I love when families include their pets in photos! My suggestion would be to arrive a little earlier and walk the dog so its a little worn out -- and bring lots of treats!
What locations do you typically shoot at?
I have a few favorites - the beach, a eucalyptus grove and also a local park near a canyon.
Do you provide retouching or editing for the photos?
All galleries delivered are edited in my signature style (typically a mixture of black and white or warm colors). If you require further edits, I outsource to my very talented Retoucher who charges an additional rate.
Can I bring my parents and in-laws along?
Yes! I photograph a lot of grandparents with their grandkids and they're always such sweet moments. I also love to photograph adult children with their parents - sometimes the only professional photos they have together is from a wedding day. As someone who lost their dad several years back, when a loved one is gone all you have left (besides the beautiful memories) are photos, so I am always so thrilled to capture those moments for you and your family.
