Choosing a photographer for any milestone in your life can be very challenging because you want someone you can totally trust and vibe with. I get it.

TO COVER THE WALLS & FILL THE ALBUMS

Updating your family photos doesn’t always happen as regularly as we wish, even with iPhones it’s rare that we all get in and get a quality photo that we can actually blow up on a canvas and hang over the sofa, but that doesn’t have to be the case! We will get the most out of your day so that you have plenty of options, lots to look back on, and more than enough to fill up an entire photo book from one fun or adventurous day that sums up your entire family relationship. We can include the grandparents or some other very important family members if you’d wish. This day is entirely yours and I’m so ready to help tell your story!

THINGS TO CONSIDER

TRAVEL:

I am based out of Northern CT but am so happy to travel to you or shoot somewhere totally epic. Wherever you want to do this thing, I’m totally there! I include the first 120 round in your package anything beyond is a part of my travel rates and fees! My travel fees are calculated based on a number of factors such as flights (and other means of transportation), lodging, food, other accommodations etc. This rate is dependent on how far in advance I would be able to make reservations, and what/where the location is. If you’d like me to travel to you, let me know when and where and I can give you my travel fees!

GALLERY DELIVERY:

Galleries are delivered to your email address through my the service I use called Pic-Time! Packages currently allot for unlimited images downloads. Through your gallery you will be able to password protect, download in high-res, favorite, share, and even choose to print in the shop option!

TURN AROUND TIME:

Galleries are a work of art and take time to build! I try my best to deliver most standard galleries in 1-2 weeks after your session. However, depending on current work load and especially during busier peaks standard galleries can take up to 4 weeks in turnaround time and that’s the timeframe I always allot for. I know how anxious you might be to receive your gallery but please try to refrain from asking me when it will be ready, I promise to have it back to you within the four week window and It can always be done sooner! This is why I try to deliver sneak peeks within 72 hours of session! That way you have something while you wait!

let’s find some place epic, dance our way through golden hour, and create some wonderful memories while we do it.

 THE EXPERIENCE

From our very first conversation to the days leading up to our session, to gallery delivery, and beyond when you trust and invest in me, I give my all to you and make sure that I am being not only your photographer, but a forever friend.

Friendship is just one of many perks that comes with choosing me as your photographer, it also means you’ll get exclusive access to all things that I pour my heart and soul into behind the scenes. This includes dozens and dozens of locations that I have already scouted, new locations that I will scout specifically for our shoot, an outfit guide to help you if you don’t know where to start, as well as one-on-one assistance with any outfit or style help you may need or want. And my personal fave, a good laugh or two, a great adventure, and a handful of wonderful memories that you can always look back on.

I have a very laid-back approach and style with my photography and while I will guide you and give you activities and direction, I also like to hang back and let you do ya thang! I do this because I want your photos to reflect your wonderful and unique self.

I totally understand that stepping in front of the camera isn’t the most effortless or comfortable experience for everyone at first. My goal throughout our time together is to build a connection, create an environment that’s accepting and welcoming, and keep a warm & upbeat vibe to help you feel comfortable being your true and authentic self.

 

I go into each project open minded and with the knowledge that each session I photograph is a separate and unique experience that requires different levels of guidance, assistance, and attention. It’s my priority to chat with you about what you hope to get from our time together to ensure your needs and desires are met.

For this reason, I typically send over a questionnaire after booking which gives me an opportunity to peek into your life to get to know you and your interests a bit better which helps me tell your story more authentically. Now we can jam to the music that you vibe to at your session and can also bond over our current show or book obsessions or our mutual caffeine addiction.

During our session you’ll notice that I am continuously shooting rather than setting up every single shot perfectly. I do this because my most favorite shots and in my opinion the best shots are the in between moments. This is where I usually catch your most true self. So while you might feel so silly doing something it’s not always the direction or action that I’m trying capture, it’s the reaction or emotion that usually follows it that I’m trying to get so don’t worry about looking or acting perfect for every shot cause I can almost always guarantee that whether you’re fixing your hair, taking a deep breath, or being super goofy that the real-life stuff is way more interesting and is what makes each photo that much more epic.

ready to make some magic? So am I! If you think we’d be a good fit, these are the next steps to get the ball rolling!
