Introduction

Let’s make the most of dramatic light and candid moments, against the backdrop of natural and design-forward settings to capture what matters most- you and your story. No matter the length of your session or event, I always make it a priority that your time with me feels comfortable, effortless and natural. I focus on the action and emotion, as well as the quiet, in-between moments when documenting, never prioritizing one over the other. After a refined post-production process, I’ll deliver timeless photos; forever stills from a moment in your life. You live a unique experience that should be told in a genuine way - and I’m here to capture it.

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

unfold fold
I offer pricing per hour of photography coverage. Please feel free to reach out for my pricing packages!

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

unfold fold
Typically, my sessions go as follows: If you haven't already decided on a shoot location, I work with you to find select an area that's most convenient or best fits the aesthetic you're going for (I'm happy to help make suggestions as needed). During our session, I work with my subjects to make them feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera. I'm a big fan of capturing the candid and in-between moments, when you're feeling most at ease and natural. After our time together, I edit all the images and send them back within three weeks. I email my clients a link to the digital album where all of the final high-res images can be downloaded and prints can be ordered easily.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

unfold fold
I have a BFA in Photography in Film from Virginia Commonwealth University and a Master's in Film Studies from the University of Edinburgh.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

unfold fold
I have always been drawn to photography, film and artistic composition. I feel fortunately to be working in a field that I love!

What types of customers have you worked with?

unfold fold
I've worked with all kinds of people, ranging from individuals needing headshots, couples celebrating engagements, intimate weddings and elopements, to family reunions. No matter where you're from or who you love, I want to be there to capture your own unique story.

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

unfold fold
I always love working outdoors when possible and making nature part of my process. There are many local venues I love to work in and would be happy to make recommendations if you need help picking a location for a session.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

unfold fold
Each photographer has a signature look to their work- so make sure their style aligns with your vision!

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

unfold fold
Think about what kind of setting you'd prefer- indoors or out- and the best time of day for light.
