My best work comes from me simply hanging out with you. I want to document the truest form of you. My approach is candid, laid back, and certainly not traditional, but life is messy and beautiful, and it's worth documenting well.

FAQ.

What should we wear?! Do you have a Client closet? I will absolutely help you pick out outfits for your session. I also have a few beautiful gowns & dresses for my clients to borrow.

I can't wait to see my photos! When will they be ready? I'm so excited to get them to you! Galleries are generally completed within 2 weeks but during busier seasons it can take 4-6 weeks.

Do you travel? Absolutely! If the session is within 20 miles of Rochester, there is no travel fee.

When is the best time of the day for a session? Once we determine the date of your session, I will provide suggestions for our time together to assure the best lighting for your session experience.

If you're planning an in-home session, the timing is a little more flexible. In fact, giving the sun longer to rise can sometimes be a good thing, as it can mean more light inside. If we're organizing an in-home session, watch the light in your home during different times of the day and let me know if there's a special window of magic - dappled light on the bedroom wall or sunshine pouring in through the kitchen window. We can absolutely work with that.

The best hours for a session is dependent on the season and the time the sun rises and sets in your part of the world. (We'll chat logistics when you book.) If you have a day of the week or specific time that's best for you, please ask - we'll see what we can work out.

Can you do parties or events? I sure can. Send me a message and let me know what you have in mind.

Do you photograph births? YES! In fact, it is my specialty and one of my favorite things to document.

"Take care of all of your memories, for you can not relive them." - Bob Dylan
