THE PROCESS

FROM FIRST HELLO TO FINAL DELIVERY

(01) planning

After you reach out, we’ll choose the perfect location and date together with my guidance. Once those are confirmed, we’ll both sign a contract and a booking fee will be required to secure your session. After the booking is complete, you’ll receive a helpful session guide straight to your email—designed to get you fully prepared and excited for our time together.

(02) session day

The day is finally here! We’ll meet at our chosen location and jump right into capturing beautiful moments. Throughout the session, I’ll guide you every step of the way—from poses to natural movements—so you’ll never feel unsure of what to do. We’ll stay in constant communication to ensure you feel comfortable, confident, and happy with the process. At the end, I’ll walk you through the editing timeline and let you know exactly what to expect next.

(03) delivery

This is where the final magic happens. For non-wedding sessions, you’ll receive an online gallery with all the images, and you’ll get to select your favorites for me to edit.

A sneak peek will land in your inbox within a few days, and your fully edited gallery will be delivered within a few weeks—ready to relive the beauty of our time together.
