OUR PROCESS
initial consult
We begin with an in-depth conversation about your vision, style, and what you want your portraits to convey. This is where we discuss wardrobe direction, location options, and the overall aesthetic that feels authentically you.
THE SESSION
On shoot day, we create a relaxed, sophisticated atmosphere where you can be present and genuine while we handle every detail. Each moment is thoughtfully crafted to tell your story with editorial polish and timeless beauty.
Viewing & Ordering
After your session, we'll invite you to an exclusive reveal where you'll see your gallery for the first time. We'll guide you through selecting your favorite images and designing a collection of fine art prints, albums, or frames that transform your portraits into heirlooms.
