Consultation
Before we start shooting, we will go over everything so I know exactly what you want and we can customize the shoot to fit your needs. We’ll go over all of the details for the shoot including location, outfits and where the resulting artwork will live in your home. Will they be fine-art framed portraits hung up on your walls or custom designed albums and folio boxes that will live on your shelves or coffee table? My specialty is creating something for you that you will enjoy for the rest of your life and become heirlooms for your children.
Shoot
The shoot is always the best part and the most fun! I will make sure that you know what poses work best so that you are relaxed and feel comfortable in front of the camera! I will creatively capture the essence and individuality for each of you and reveal the strong connections within your family. Make-overs can be a part of the experience and I will be sure to remind you that this is an option before your photo shoot.
Preview and Order
This is when you either come in to my studio, or we meet remotely by Zoom, and I show you all of your beautiful portraits. Using state-of-the-art software, we will compare and select the strongest photos and discuss the best way to display them in your home. You will only purchase what you truly love … my job is just to make sure that you have lots of gorgeous portraits to choose from! We will prepare in advance and I will upload iphone photos of your walls so that I can show you the images framed and scaled in the style that best fits the personality of your home. My products are curated so that all options are contemporary, timeless and the highest quality in the industry.
