Location

To help capture your true story sessions are available at your home or an agreed upon outdoor location. I am happy to offer location suggestions or go with a special place that you have in mind, a local park, somewhere near water, an urban setting, a field or a farm, etc. I prefer to shoot a majority of your photos outdoors in the natural light. Outdoor sessions are typically scheduled for early morning or late afternoon to take advantage of optimal lighting.

What to Expect

While my top priority is delivering you high-quality, personalized images – it is just as important to me to help create an easy-going, comfortable environment that will allow you to “be you” and have a memorable photo session experience (yes…even with kids!). In my opinion, the best photos happen when people are relaxed and happy, so think of our time together as just another get together with a friend. 

         Expect to PARTICIPATE. Fully and without reserve.
                       Have FUN!  
                            Relax. 
                      Laugh. 
                             Love. 
                                   Be YOU. 
                     Pretend I'm not even there!
 
I love capturing the connections between people and I don't want you to worry about "Saying CHEESE!" I may ask you to move to a different spot or give a smooch but generally I try to capture moments as they happen to create authentic portraits that resemble your everyday life together. 

My style is modern, candid and natural. My goal is to capture the real moments that you'll look back on and laugh, cry, and relive all over again. We will take some posed shots, however, my favorites are the ones I will snap when you aren't even paying attention. 

What Should I Wear?

Picture
  • Coordinate but don't match. 
  • Pick one person to rock a bold print {plaid or stripes} that the other outfits can pull from. 
  • Think neutral with a few colorful brights.
  • Don't put everyone in the same color. 
  • Stay away from graphic tees. 
  • Consult Pinterest {there are tons of boards with great suggestions}.
  • Dress for the season.
  • Accessorize!
  • Wear layers.
  • Be YOURSELF and wear what you find stylish and comfortable!
