EXPERIENCE
Guided
I direct every pose, every micro-expression. You never have to wonder what to do with your hands.
Unhurried
60–90 minute sessions. We sip coffee, switch looks, laugh. No assembly-line energy.
Honest
I'll tell you if a look isn't working. You'll leave with photos you actually want to share.
— The Timeline
From "hi" to final gallery in about a week.
Day Zero
You contact me
Tell me what the photos are for — LinkedIn, a launch, a rebrand. I reply same day with two date options and a short style questionnaire.
One week before
Style consult
A 20-minute call. We map outfits, locations, and the exact vibe. I send a personalized wardrobe checklist.
Session morning
Hair & makeup
Optional but recommended. My HMU artist comes to the studio at 9am. Coffee, robe, playlist on.
Shoot time
Your shoot
Two to four looks. I direct every pose and show you the back of the camera so you see it happening in real time
48 hours later
Sneak peek
I text you 3 favorites. You'll know immediately the session was worth it. Schedual the revieal session.
Within two weeks
Final gallery
Hand-retouched, web-ready and print-ready files delivered through a private gallery you keep forever.

Sizes XS–XL, plus accessories & jewelry

Editorial neutrals + a few bold statement pieces
