Pre-Shoot Planning Call

About a month before your session, we'll walkthrough the entire experience so you know exactly what to expect, what to bring, and how the day will unfold. Clients often tell me they feel so much more relaxed after this call.

Personal Styling & Fit Session

When you arrive at my studio, we begin by curating your looks.  Together, we’ll choose your outfits from the clothing you bring.  I’ll even have you try on certain pieces so we can see how they fit and photograph, ensuring every look is flattering and camera-ready.

We make sure your hair and makeup are done to your liking so you feel confident, radiant, and fully yourself before stepping in front of the camera.

Sneak Peeks & Test Shots

After your hair and makeup is complete, we’ll take a test shot in your first outfit to see how everything looks on camera. This allows us to make any adjustments. Throughout the shoot, you’ll get to see sneak peeks and see your images in real time. This builds confidence and ensures you love every look.
