Your family is a precious gift! It is unique and raw and real and beautiful. During our family portrait session, we will highlight the connections between and among you. The love pouring through these images will remind you every day of the little things that make life together so remarkable. The family session is a full-service experience where I will provide guidance and help every step of the way, from idea generation to installation.
CONSULTATION - we will meet to get to know each other a little bit. I want to know about your family and about who will be included in the session. What's your favorite music? What do the kids like to eat? All of those little details helps me better capture the true YOU! We'll also talk about wardrobe, location, and end goals for your family portraits. Take me on a walk through your home and we can pick out the best place for your family portrait on the wall.
SESSION - kick back and have fun! Those true moments with your loved ones will shine through in your portraits. We will get the posed portrait with everyone smiling and looking at the camera. But we'll also get those fun, in-between moments. Dad is smiling as he watches his beautiful wife interact with their children. Mom is gently kissing her baby's forehead. Son is looking at Dad for encouragement and direction. Those moments are priceless.
REVEAL AND ORDERING APPOINTMENT - we will review the images together and select the very best ones for your order. Don't worry, I'm here to help with selections. And I have software that can be calibrated to your space - we'll see exactly what product and size looks best on your walls.

A small snapshot of the teams I’ve worked with recently 📸👇🏻
Headshots are one of those things that are easy to put off… until you realize your photos no longer reflect where you are now.
Outdated images, inconsistent team photos, or a mix of styles across platforms can quietly take away from how your brand is perceived.
A headshot refresh doesn’t have to be complicated—it just needs to be intentional.
If your team’s photos haven’t been updated in a while, this is a good time to take a look at what you’re currently using.
📩 If you’re ready for a headshot refresh, you can book a consultation through the link in my bio.
Some of my favorite senior photos always include something personal.
Instruments, sports gear, pets, cars—these are the details that make your photos feel like you.
Senior sessions aren’t just about getting a few good pictures—they’re about capturing this season in a way that feels real and meaningful.
And with senior year right around the corner, now is the time to start thinking about it.
Spots tend to fill up quickly once the school year gets going, so planning ahead makes all the difference.
If you’re ready to start planning your senior session, you can book a consultation through the link in my bio.
“Pick something you’d do for free…” It sounds simple—but building a career around it is anything but.
There’s a lot that goes into turning photography into something sustainable—learning your craft, understanding lighting, figuring out your gear, working with clients, and continuing to grow.
But if you’re willing to put in the time, it’s one of the most rewarding things you can do.
If you’re just getting started, I have a few free resources to help you figure out what actually matters (and what doesn’t).
🔗 You can grab them with the link in my bio.
At the end of the day, it’s not about the title—it’s about what the photos actually do for you.
For most teams, the hardest part isn’t getting the photos taken… it’s coordinating everything around it.
Schedules, availability, keeping the look consistent across everyone—it adds up quickly, and it’s usually why it gets pushed off.
That’s exactly why I created a Corporate Team Headshot Planner—to make the process simple, organized, and easy to execute from start to finish.
📥 If updating your team’s photos has been sitting on your to-do list, this will help you finally get it done—link in bio.
If you’re planning a branding session and not sure where to start, my Branding Guide walks you through everything—from outfits to planning your shoot so your photos actually work for your business. Link in bio.
What you wear to your branding session isn’t just about looking good—it’s about representing your brand clearly.
The goal isn’t one perfect outfit.
It’s variety.
When you bring a mix of looks—something polished, something more relaxed, and something that reflects your personality—you end up with images you can actually use across your website, content, and marketing.
And the small details matter more than you think…
(hair, nails, lint, fit—those are the things that show up in photos)
A little planning ahead makes the entire session easier—and the final result that much stronger.
If you’ve been putting off a branding session because you don’t know where to start, this is your sign to start planning it out. Send me a DM when you’re ready!
If headshot lighting feels confusing, I put together a guide with 3 simple setups that will get you consistent results—link in bio.
If your headshots feel a little “off”… it’s usually not your camera—it’s your lighting.
Here are 5 mistakes I see all the time:
1️⃣ Lighting from below
Creates unflattering shadows. Keep your light slightly above eye level.
2️⃣ Too much (or too harsh) light
Softer, controlled light will always look more professional.
3️⃣ No direction to your light
Flat lighting = flat images. You need some angle to create depth.
4️⃣ Mixing multiple light sources
This is how you end up with weird color and inconsistent tones.
5️⃣ Ignoring catchlights
Small detail, big impact—this is what brings life to your subject’s eyes.
Lighting doesn’t need to be complicated… it just needs to be intentional.
Curious—what’s been the hardest part about lighting for you?
