A playful, intentional, and empowering experience.

Retouching is a time-intensive process that typically takes 30–45min/per photo, which can quickly add up. Everyone's skin is beautiful and different, but some skin can take more time to retouch and properly maintain its texture. Photos that require more than one hour of retouching will be billed additionally at $100/hr, billed in 15-min increments.

NOTE: Retouching tattoos is not included in package pricing, this is billed additionally as per Tattoo Removal below.

Additional retouched photos can be purchased for $100/ea. And all of the edited (non-retouched) photos can be purchased as a bundle for an additional 50% of the package price.

Depending on my availability, a guaranteed one-week turnaround of proofs, edits, and retouched photos is available at a rate of 200%. You must be able to provide your selects within 24-hrs of receiving them.

Locations that require more than 30 minutes of travel time will be billed at a rate of $100/hr (billed in 15-min increments) in addition to the package price. Locations that are more than three hours away will also require overnight accommodations to be provided.

Tattoo removal is an optional service and is available upon request at $100/hr billed in 15-min increments. This requires high-end retouching and is not simply blurring.

NOTE: Retouching/removal of tattoos is not included in package pricing.

There is no additional fee for providing blurred versions of your final retouched photos. However, if you wish to purchase all of your edited photos as a bundle (and would like those blurred) there will be an additional fee assessed based on the number of photos that require processing.

A 50% deposit is required to book a shoot with the remaining 50% due on the day of the shoot. I accept Zelle, Venmo, Cash App, and PayPal (add 3% for PayPal transactions).

Deposits are non-refundable, however, they are transferable for up to 90-days to give you an opportunity to re-book. Shoots postponed or canceled within 7-days of the shoot date will incur a 100% cancelation fee.

If you are late for a shoot, I am unable to extend our timeframe. We will use the remaining time to shoot what we can. If you are more than 30-min late (without communication) this is considered a no-show, canceling the shoot and you will incur a 100% cancelation fee.

You will receive a link to a curated, password-protected low-res proof gallery within 1–2 weeks of the shoot. You'll have up to 2-weeks to select your favorites, then, depending on the package you select or create, your final high-res photos will be delivered within 2–4 weeks later. The stated 3–6 week turnaround time estimate does not account for the time it takes you to select your favorites.

“Location, location, location”, you’ve probably heard this mantra in reference to real estate, and there’s a good reason—choosing the right location for your shoot adds so much value to the final product. Specifically, we need to consider the amount of natural light and available space so we have enough room to work—indoor spaces need to be a minimum of 500-sqft. I’m excited to work with you on sourcing and selecting the ideal location that will support our needs. Once selected, you are responsible for organizing the location and covering all related expenses. I’ve covered a few options and notes below to get you started.

Hotel Room or Airbnb — Hotels.com, airbnb.com or vrbo.com are great options. If you are flying me to you, this can also double as my lodging.

Rented Shoot Spaces — This could be a natural light photo studio, a pool, garden, etc. Check out peerspace.com for some great options.

Your Home — If you're comfortable using your own space, and it meets the location requirements, this can be a great free option.

Public Spaces — A fashionable stroll in the heart of downtown or a quaint picnic at a local park can be a great backdrop for a visual story. Where possible I’m always happy to help, though you are responsible for researching, and organizing a permit if required. Within reason, I don’t mind taking some risks with where we shoot, but if for some reason there is a fine assigned on location, you are responsible for covering said fine. This will be reflected in the contract.

Private Spaces — You are responsible for researching, and organizing a permit for any private space. I don’t condone trespassing, but I don’t mind taking some risks with where we shoot, within reason. That said, if there is a fine assigned on location, you are responsible for covering said fine. This will be reflected in the contract.

Remote Locations — I'm always up for going on a hike, jumping on a boat, or posting up at the beach. Please note, there is an additional fee for remote shoots depending on the location,

I don’t use any artificial lighting equipment. I am a natural light photographer, which means my only light source is the sun or any available ambient light. Please keep this in mind when selecting a location. The location should be bright and fresh—filled with natural light.

In natural light photography, the direction of windows significantly influences the quality of light.

Eastern-facing windows are best utilized in the early morning, especially from sunrise until mid-morning, offering warm, gentle light. This effect is most pronounced in spring and summer when the sun rises earlier.

Western-facing windows are ideal in the late afternoon to early evening, providing strong, golden hues that are particularly striking during summer and autumn evenings.

Southern-facing windows capture strong light throughout the day, from mid-morning to late afternoon, offering bright and consistent illumination. This is especially true in the winter months when the sun is lower in the sky, allowing for more direct light.

Northern-facing windows, avoiding direct sunlight, are optimal for soft, diffused lighting throughout the day. This makes them versatile for use at any time, but they are particularly beneficial in the summer when other directions may offer overly harsh light.

I am also open to considering a low-light shoot but this will need to be discussed and agreed upon beforehand.

For the best natural light, I prefer to shoot in the mornings between 7am–10am, or in the evenings between 4pm–7pm (depending on the time of year). That said, I'm happy to work with your schedule and adjust our time based on the look we're going for and the shoot location.

For indoor shoots, if it happens to rain or is cloudy on the day of our shoot, we can still have a successful shoot, provided the location you've chosen has lots of natural light!

For outdoor and remote shoots, we will schedule a “rain” date alongside the main date ahead of time so we already have a backup plan. We can also agree on alternate locations beforehand.

I love to travel for shoots and am available worldwide—I'd love to be your personal travel photographer or cater to you in your city. Pricing is unique to each trip, so let's discuss the details and figure out our adventure. You are responsible for covering all related travel expenses.

We’ll take some short breaks throughout the shoot—please bring water and a snack to maintain your energy. Shoots lasting longer than four hours require a 30-minute meal break.

It can be nice to have some background music on set when possible. Consider bringing a playlist and I can play it through my portable speaker.

You’re welcome to bring any props you’d like and we can integrate them into your shoot. I do not provide any props.

I don’t have a studio as I travel often and don’t use any lighting equipment, but I’m happy to help you find a natural light studio if that’s where you’d like to shoot. You are responsible for organizing the location and covering all related expenses.

No, RAW files are only available for purchase with a full copyright buyout, typically starting around $3800.

Additional retouched photos can be purchased for $100/ea.

All edited (non-retouched) photos can be purchased as a bundle for an additional 50% of the package price.

The price you pay only covers the photoshoot, editing, retouching, and usage rights for the specific number of photos you select, this will be reflected in the contract.

Any unauthorized use of photos violates the terms of the contract.

No, they are only low-res samples for reference. Unless you purchase a full copyright buyout (see above) you do not own the image copyrights and any unauthorized use of photos violates the terms of the contract.

I do! I’m open to working with all humans regardless of their gender identification.

I do, and I love working with couples! It’s an absolute gift to be invited into your intimate space and witness your connection.

Fuck yes! I’m human friendly, as long as you’re kind, you’re my kind of people.

Of course, I’m also construction worker and school teacher friendly! That said, I don’t work with anyone who is not friendly. I'm also a SLIXA recognized professional.

If you've ever done a photoshoot before, you know they’re a lot of fun, and they can also take up a lot of energy. Ideally, you'll want to get a full 8-hours of quality sleep—especially if it’s an early morning shoot. If you’re rushing, tired, grumpy, or hungover, it will show up in your skin, and come through in the photos. Take this as an opportunity to pamper yourself, and get the sleep you deserve.

Come to the shoot in loosely fitted, comfortable clothing so that you don’t show up with any lines pressed into your skin.

Remember to lotion your full body the night before and the morning of the shoot. Keep your skin hydrated and looking healthy.

If you’re planning on shaving or waxing any areas of your face/body, do so 1–2 days prior so any irritation or redness has time to calm down.

Exfoliate the bottoms of your feet the week leading up to the shoot.

You now have a great excuse to treat yourself to that mani-pedi. Get your nails done close to the shoot. Chipped or dirty nails can distract from an otherwise beautiful photo. Your nails should complement and support your overall look, soft and elegant or bright and bold, style your nails to match.

Depending on the package, we won’t have time to shoot every outfit you bring, so choose your favorites from comfy to risqué. And it’s always better to have too many choices than not enough. Take time to try on your outfits beforehand to be sure you like and feel good in them. If you don’t feel confident in what you’re wearing, it will show on camera.

Comfy Casual — Think soft/thin tank tops, booty shorts, thigh-high socks, loosely knitted or oversized sweaters, etc. These are all great choices for a playful/casual look. Find those items in your closet that make you feel comfortable so you can relax into yourself.

Swimsuit/Bikini — This can be fun for an indoor or outdoor shoot. Pair it with some white (fashionable) sneakers for a playful look or compliment it with an elegant waffle robe as a prop.

Lingerie — Choose the color based on how it compliments your skin tone. Anything with delicate textures, soft finishes, intricate details, or sheer fabrics all make for beautiful results on camera. How simple or risqué you choose to be with your lingerie is completely up to you.

Bra/Panties — A simple, elegant, or sporty set of bra and panties can be very flattering on its own or mixed with a thin tank top.

Be sure to remove any large tags from all wardrobe items before the shoot.

A lot of my clients do their own hair and makeup for a shoot and it looks great! I’m also happy to work with you to find a professional H/MUA to suit your needs. You are responsible for booking the H/MUA and covering all related expenses.

We’ll talk about this ahead of time, but most often you’ll want to go very light on the makeup. My style of shooting lends itself to a fresh/natural look. That said, I can accommodate any concept you have.

A fresh style, a blowout, curl or straighten is always nice for you and your hair—it just wants to look natural and healthy.

Unless you’ve arranged for professional H/MUA on location, come to the shoot with your hair & makeup done beforehand.

Don’t worry about small blemishes, I can edit those out in post-production

Depending on the look we’re going for, these are optional. Feel free to bring a few picks from simple (fashionable) sneakers to kick-ass boots. If you decide to include heels, you won’t be walking around a lot, so super high and wildly uncomfortable will all work—think more about how they look than feel. If they don’t compliment your outfit, it’s better to leave them out of the shot.

Simple and elegant rings, earrings, body jewelry, and necklaces are all wonderful touches and can add a lot of character to a photo. Glasses, hats, scarves, and throws are also great.

If you want to tan via a bed or the sun, do it a few days to a week prior so it has time to brown by the day of the shoot. Also, be sure to drink plenty of water to hydrate your skin. I caution against spray/fake tans as they don’t look good on camera.
