Photography Experiences
Come with an idea. Leave with something that feels like you.
Three ways to work together, all built around the same thing: a real conversation about what you want to make, then the lighting, direction, and time to actually make it. Whether you show up with a fully formed concept or just a feeling you can't quite explain yet, that's a good place to start.
The Creative Session
For distinctive portraits without a big production.
10 finished images, not every photograph taken.
The straightest path to a portrait that actually looks like you. We talk through the concept first, then shoot with real direction, so you don't have to know how to pose.
- Up to 60 minutes of photography
- Pre-session creative consultation
- Guidance on posing, wardrobe, and location
- Creative direction and lighting suited to your concept
- 10 professionally edited, high-resolution digital images
- Private online gallery with access to your included images
- Option to purchase additional images, prints, and wall art
The Signature Experience
For more variety and a more developed concept.
15 finished images, not every photograph taken.
The one most people choose. More time, more setups, and more room to try things, so the gallery ends up with real range instead of twenty versions of the same frame.
- Up to 90 minutes of photography
- Pre-session concept planning
- More variety in poses, compositions, and setups
- Wardrobe and location guidance
- Creative lighting and cinematic styling
- 15 professionally edited, high-resolution digital images
- Private online gallery with access to your included images
- Option to purchase additional images, prints, and wall art
The Signature Production
For an involved creative project with real visual impact.
25 finished images, not every photograph taken.
For the idea that needs planning, multiple looks, and a bit of production behind it. We build the concept together, then take the time to actually get it right.
- Up to two hours of photography
- Expanded concept planning and creative direction
- Multiple looks or creative setups where practical
- Advanced lighting and cinematic portrait techniques
- Wardrobe and location planning assistance
- Smoke or other special visual effects when suitable, safe, and available
- 25 professionally edited, high-resolution digital images
- Private online gallery with access to your included images
- Option to purchase additional images, prints, and wall art
How we start
Let's Create Something That Feels Like You.
That's where I come in.
After you book, the first thing I send is a short questionnaire. It's where you tell me what you're picturing: the mood, the colors, the location, the wardrobe, and the story you want to tell. Fill it out in ten minutes or sit with it for a day. Either is fine.
Then we hop on a call to talk it through together. Bring inspiration, half-formed ideas, or just a feeling you can't quite explain yet. We'll work through ideas, colors, locations, wardrobe, and timing until we land on something that feels like you.
From there, I put together a curated shot list built around your vision, with direction for posing, lighting, wardrobe, and locations, plus any creative elements that help bring it together. If you're imagining something dramatic, cinematic, unconventional, or completely outside the box, I want to explore that with you.
You don't have to know exactly how to make your idea happen. That's something we figure out together before we ever pick up the camera.
Good to know
Finished images, not every frame.
Each package includes the number of professionally edited, high-resolution images listed above. Those are the finished photographs, not everything that came off the camera. You'll see your private online gallery when it's ready, and you can purchase additional images, prints, and wall art from it.
Before you book
Extras are quoted up front, never after.
Travel beyond the Tacoma and Seattle area, studio or venue rentals, special props, permits, and purchased materials are billed separately. I'll always lay out those costs before you commit to anything, so there are no surprises.
Teams, groups, schools, and media days aren't a one-size package. Those start with a conversation and a custom quote.
Not sure which one fits?
Send me the idea, even the half-formed version, and I'll tell you honestly what it takes.
