I Don’t Know How Many Times I’ve Heard This…
“I hate most photos of myself…”
“I don’t have a model’s figure…”
“I really shouldn’t spend the money…”
Ladies, I absolutely understand how you’re feeling, and you are certainly not alone. I have heard this countless times. A lot of women have lived with the misconception that beauty comes in one shape, one race, and one age group. Nothing could be further from the truth.
In fact, most people don’t know how to photograph themselves. There is an art to it… and it’s one that I know well.
I want to show you how absolutely stunning you are. I love WOWing my customers after a session. You would be amazed at what the right lighting, the right poses, and the right angles can do to a photograph.
All women are inherently beautiful… But not everyone knows how to get the most flattering photos. I’d love to show you dozens and dozens of photos that you'll love! Now, that’s something worth spoiling yourself with!
“I had DOZENS of Photos I Loved!!!”
This single statement (which I hear time and time again) is my absolute favorite! I work with so many women who have lived in fear of the camera. I like to think of my glamour and portrait photography sessions as a sort of self-care meets a deep self-love session… that ends in STUNNING photos!
I love the look of total contentment my clients leave with, as well as the light-hearted joy and fun they experience during the sessions! This is an amazing thing to experience alone… or with sisters, mothers, friends, and more!

frequently asked questions
Do you provide outfits or help me figure out what to wear?
Yes and no... I do not provide any lingerie due to sanitary reasons. BUT I do have some pieces at the studio you're welcome to use. These are pieces that go OVER any lingerie or underwear you bring. The studio wardrobe has basic items like button down shirts and robes as well as specialty pieces like the angel wings, tulle robes, etc.
I will guide you through what to wear, how to find outfits, and what you can use that you may already own for your session, so you have nothing to worry about there :)
I've never done a photoshoot before and I don't know how to pose. Will you help me?
Yes of course! My job as your photographer is to guide you through the whole experience. Like 95% of my clients have never had a proper photoshoot before (or if they have, it's been since the days of Glamour Shots)!
I will show you how to move your body and pose you down to the pinky. No worries about "what do I do with my hands" or "I'm worried about having a double chin" or not having photos turn out because you didn't bring a list of poses. I've been a photographer for nearly half of my life now and know how to pose ALL body types and modify poses based on your range of mobility and goals.
Do you offer professional hair & makeup styling?
Yes, included in the Luxe & Ultimate sessions is professional hair and makeup styling (or you can add it on for $175/person - perfect if you're being photographed with others who also want that extra bit of pampering)! I have vetted all of my stylists so they can work with all skin types, ages, etc. And yes, this includes being able to work with natural hair.
Can I bring someone with me to the session?
Yes of course! As long as the person you are bringing is a nice, supportive person. In fact, most of my clients bring a friend to share the day with. You don't have to be photographed together necessarily, but could do back to back sessions with maybe a few images taken together in between.
I always say: a day shared is often more fun and even more special.
What kinds of products do you offer?
I have offer a variety of custom and heirloom products. The most popular items are digital files, wall art, and albums. After booking in, you'll get a copy of our Products guide with more info on everything we offer and the options to upgrade your package.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes I do! We offer financing through PayPal Credit or Affirm and in-house layaway plans with no interest. Layaway means you can pay off your order over time, and when your payment is finalized you will receive your products.
