You ask, I answer!
You can book a session directly through my booking site (link at the bottom of this page). If you prefer, you’re also welcome to send me a message on Facebook or Instagram, or reach out by email—I’ll be happy to get you scheduled.
I was born and raised in St. Louis, MO and that is where I do majority of my work! I am ready to open the door to traveling!
I deliver my photos via an online gallery system. Your portal will be password protected with a unique password that I give to you (you can change it at any time).
For minis, it is about 1-2 weeks. For classic sessions, it is around the 2-3 week range! Weddings, you can expect a small sneak peek within 72 hours, and your full gallery within 4-6 weeks from your wedding date!
Seriously, I'm soooo awkward in front of the camera, too! It's not just you. I will guide you on where to put your hands, make sure your phones and wallets aren't bulging out of your pockets, and I'll place you in a way to let your personalities shine through! I do some normal posing, but then typically lead with prompts to bring out laughs and authentic smiles.
Yes, if I notice it, I will edit it. But, cosmetic editing takes time. So, teeth whitening, skin smoothing, and blemish removal will typically be an extra charge if it's more than 1-3 blemishes. I typically like to leave my images as natural as possible, as I think beauty comes in all ages, shapes, and sizes. But, I totally understand not wanting an annoying pimple in your photos, so I'll take care of that for you!
Minis are great for getting headshots done, couples' sessions for the couples that don't want to take pictures for a full hour, quick senior sessions (no outfit changes, etc), and families of UP TO 5 people! If there are more than 5 people in the session, we will need to book an extended session to allow us plenty of time to get the shots we want.
These sessions are extended. I don't like these to be rushed or you will be able to tell that in the photos. For newborn lifestyle sessions, I block off 2 hours to compensate for feedings, changes, calming, etc. Traditional lifestyle sessions should only take about an hour. If I'm coming to capture the whole family at grandma's house, we may need to add time.
In-home lifestyle sessions are designed to capture authentic moments in the comfort of your own space. Whether it’s welcoming a newborn or simply enjoying everyday family life, these sessions focus on genuine connection—not posed perfection. Your home becomes the backdrop for timeless memories you’ll treasure.
