SESSIONS
Welcome!
I offer Maternity, Family, Senior Portraits, Children's Portraits, Pets, Couples, Posed Bridal, and Engagement.
You have the option to change clothes or wear the same looks. I will provide wardrobe and styling advice if needed, and send you a FAQ sheet prior to our shoot with hints and tips for selecting the right colors and clothing for your look, as well as tips on what not to wear. You will also have access to my professional wardrobe to try on and borrow from prior to your shoot, if you desire.
I will bring props and pose you for all your images. You don't have to think about a thing.
To get started on your journey, please fill out the form below to receive more information and inquire about a preferred date.
Timing
Outdoor shoots take place approximately one hour before sunset - this is to take advantage of the dreamy lighting and achieve the gorgeous colors you see in my images. Studio shoots and at their scheduled start time.
Outdoor locations
I have dozens of beautiful areas that I've scouted over the years to suite all types of outdoor shoots, from endless fields of flowers, to sunset mountaintops, to golden fields of hay. Depending on your vision, I'll select whichever area best suites your needs. You are also welcome to request a specific location of your own if desired.
Travel that is outside one hour from my home base of West Linn or 30 minutes outside of Portland, OR, will incur a travel fee.
Wardrobe
I offer wardrobe services in the form of consulting (You can send me examples of what you're thinking of wearing), as well as a 'What to and not what to wear' style guide sheet. This helps select colors, patterns, and styles that will meld well for your images. Additionally, I have an extensive client closet full of maternity gowns, regular dresses and clothing for women and girls, as well as a sample selection for boys, babies and men.
You are also more than welcome to wear whatever you like day of with no consultation at all and just come as you are. These services are merely available for anyone who would like them.
Payments
Payment is due in full prior to your shoot date. A $50 non-refundable fee is due upon booking to reserve your space, and will be subtracted from the final amount due when your full payment is made.
