Your go-to place for everything you’ll need as we plan your session together
Client Lounge
Plan to arrive a few minutes early so we can start relaxed and make the most of our time together. Session start times are chosen intentionally based on lighting, so arriving on time helps everything run smoothly and keeps the day feeling unhurried.
When you arrive, we’ll take a few minutes to review your outfits and confirm the plan before we begin shooting.
Session day logistics:
Session day should feel fun, relaxed, and exciting — not stressful or overwhelming. You don’t need to come in knowing how to pose or what to do. I’ll guide you through everything, step by step, so you can enjoy the experience and feel confident the entire time. This page covers the simple, practical details to help you feel prepared and at ease.
Arriving & Getting Started
session details
Depending on your collection, we may stay in one location or move between a couple of nearby spots. We’ll keep everything well-paced and organized so transitions feel easy and unhurried.
I’ll manage timing, locations, outfit changes, and transitions throughout the session to keep things running smoothly. A pop-up changing tent is available for outfit changes, or you’re welcome to change in your car if that feels more comfortable. You’ll also see occasional previews as we go so you can check in on how everything is coming together.

“My number one tip is just to be open to the process. The best ideas came from the most unexpected places!”
“I felt like I had my ICA nailed, so I was going to skip that exercise, but I’m so glad I didn’t! Ah-ha moments galore.”
“Do the the copywriting add-on! I tried to write my own copy, but what they came up with was WAY better”
