Lay back, act natural, and let’s take some pictures
This isn’t about a photo session, or even the pictures, it’s about YOU! Forget about posing and feeling stiff in front of the camera. Imagine going on a walk with an old friend, who just happens to have a camera with them. My process is free and flowy, and my only goal is to capture your true self.
The real YOU framed into a timeless portrait

04.
Delivering photos
In two-three weeks, you will receive your edited pictures, to see yourself in all your natural glory.
This is my first photoshoot, what should I know?
The first thing you need to know is that you don't need to be nervous. No one expects you to be a trained model. Nor is it needed! Just relax and be yourself; I will be with you every step of the way and guide you though the whole process.
What should I wear?
Wear what you feel comfortable in or unless it's a sports session then uniforms. It's completely up to you! Consider wearing an outfit that you choose when you want to dress up a little.. but not too fancy.
It gives you the extra confidence when you put it on; because it makes you smile brighter.
How many pictures will I receive?
Depending on the type of session you choose. Typically, you would get back all edited images with your online gallery dedicated to you. That's where you can make prints. When we're done with the session. It takes about 2-3 weeks to go through all images, select the best ones, and retouch them.
