THE CONSULTATION

This is a casual chat over a beverage or in my studio where we can get to know each other. We’ll talk about how you want to be photographed and with whom, design your portrait session, talk about what to expect before, during, and after your session, and you’ll have a chance to see and touch the products I offer. The consultation is complimentary and there is no obligation.

After our consultation, if you choose me as your portrait photographer, you’ll pay the session fee and we'll reserve your portrait date and time. From there, we’ll plan your attire. Bring your own outfits or borrow from my studio wardrobe. I can even help you find beautiful outfits to rent for a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

    PROFESSIONAL STYLING, HAIR, & MAKEUP

    Your portrait session is custom-designed to allow you to feel beautiful. You will enjoy your day of indulgence by receiving personalized wardrobe styling and a 1-2 hour photo shoot. A professional makeover for one adult can be included for an additional fee. Please plan to spend approximately 4 hours with me the day of your session to allow time for your makeover (if added), shooting time including wardrobe changes, and cleanup.

    THE PHOTO SHOOT

    When you arrive to the studio, you’ll be greeted with a warm smile and we’ll walk through the shoot. You’ll settle in while we discuss your outfit selections. Once you’re primped and ready, we’ll begin your session. Don't worry that you don’t know how to pose like a model; I will direct you every step of the way. Make sure you schedule a night out afterwards because you will look gorgeous! 

    At the end of your session, we’ll schedule a time for us to meet again for an in-person image reveal and ordering. I believe in personal connections and absolutely LOVE seeing clients react to their images. This is a very personal experience for both of us and we may even shed a few tears together. For that reason, I do not offer online viewings of images.

     THE REVEAL

    Your image reveal is when you’ll see all your edited images in my studio. This usually occurs about 3 weeks after your session date and is when you’ll choose your favorite images and purchase products. There is no minimum purchase and you only buy what you love! Regardless of what you choose, all products are made with the finest materials and will be treasured by generations to come.

All images are printed on the finest archival mediums and will last for generations.

    “I had an excellent experience with Amy. Her ability to work with my 4-year old son was tremendous. He quickly warmed up to her and we had such a great time. When I received the portraits, I was absolutely floored by how great they were. I have definitely found someone to hire for all my future photo sessions!”

    “Amy left my sister & me feeling super comfortable & confident in every pose we chose. If we were clueless on what to do in front of the camera, she put us in a comfortable position that felt natural but also looked good. On top of that she took some awesome portraits! Definitely recommend!”
