This will be followed by a custom proposal and you can let me know if you want to move forward with a contract.

After you fill out a brief questionnaire, we will pick our date and location.  I will send you a mood board and we will collaborate together from there for your ideal photo session.

senior session info:

 

This is my first photoshoot, what should I know?

Eeek! This is such an exciting year! I know things are crazy busy your already before your senior year even officially begins. There are so many decisions and opportunities that can feel overwhelming.

The good news is you can go ahead and take worrying about your senior photos off of your plate for good.I've got you! Please know that you cannot mess this up! You need zero experience to get stunning photos that you will absolutely love. You do not need to know how to pose. I get that question a lot!

I will guide you the entire time and we will chat 2 weeks before the session to go over outfits, locations, and questions. I will also send you a questionnaire that will give us a couple fun ideas to work in. (Your interests like sports, art, music, etc.)

Can I bring someone with me to the photo shoot?

Yes, of course! I usually suggest bringing one person, a best friend, mom, dad, a sibling or even your dog is  great too. I will snap a pic of you with them during the last 15 min. just for fun.

Can you recommend any locations?

Yes, I can give you several options  We could  do an urban setting like downtown and then a setting with foliage/florals and/or water. Coffee and ice cream shops can be fun too. Your home would be incredible as well.

Is hair & makeup included in my package? Do you help with outfits? How many should I plan for?

It's not included but I can set it up for you and send you a couple people I trust. Again, totally up to you, this is not  necessary but just a fun add on! There is no pressure to know if you would like this service yet. We will discuss it on our call together! I can also send you a guide for outfit ideas! You could pick 3-5 outfit changes. I actually don't have a limit, it's just based on how much time we have together.
