Arrive on time so we can make the most of your session!
2. Don’t be afraid to be silly and serious — be yourself!
3. Let me know if there’s anything you want me to look out for or if you have a favorite side - I’ve got your back!
4. Not sure what to wear? Take a look at the suggestions below. Feel free to send an email or message me photos if you can’t decide!
5. Have fun!
WHAT TO EXPECT
I find joy in documenting real life emotion, natural poses, and lots of candid interactions!
Expect genuine images that reflect your life… including smiles, giggles, and even the occasional toddler tears. (Hey, sometimes it happens and that’s okay!)
Prepare for some silly prompts, a few traditional poses, playful games, and lots of those candid in-between poses. This style allows me to create galleries filled with images full of laughter and genuine expression.
You’ll also probably be asked to sit on the ground at some point! You’ll thank me… we’re going to get so many great images!
I don’t guarantee a set number of images because every session is different, but I do guarantee a gallery filled with emotion and images that tell the story of your life. Whether you select a petite, full length, or extended session - you’re going to have a TON of images to pick from!
Expect to have fun!
WHAT TO WEAR
Dress for the season and your style!
Wear clothes you feel great in, your confidence will show!

YOUR CHOICE IN CLOTHING HELPS PAINT THE OVERALL PICTURE:
Soft, light, neutral or pastel colors mixed with creams and denim make for bright airy images.
Medium earthy colors make for warm moodier images, but can be bright and clean if mixed with creams and lighter layers.
Bright Pop Colors give your images a vibrant bold look.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Choose a style. For families, think dressy, casual, or go formal, just let everyone being photographed know what “look” you’re going for! For seniors, headshots, and couples, I suggest bring an outfit that is casual and one that’s dressy for two very different looks.
Mix and match - try not to be “twins!”
Variety from layers, solids, patterns, and colors looks natural and pleasing in photos.
Avoid
•try to avoid solid black (it shows even the tiniest bit of lint)
• avoid clothing that wrinkles easily
• avoid tiny patterns because it can cause moiré….a funny illusion in the camera. (For example, go with large plaids, solids, or large print rather than tiny dots, stripes or checkers.)
Most importantly - Wear what YOU feel amazing in!
WHEN & WHERE
WHEN
I can make any time of day work, but I prefer to schedule portraits around the soft beautiful light that happens around the golden hour, 2 to 3 hours prior to sunset.
WHERE
I’m super sentimental, so I am happy to come to your home, but I also have favorite locations that I can suggest. For great locations, think simple backgrounds and great lighting…. I love wildflower fields, prairie grass, and tall trees for that perfectly diffused light.
Let’s collaborate!
