Senior session tips
For your senior session, I recommend bringing a mix of outfits to capture both the classic milestone and your personal style. Be sure to include your graduation gown for those timeless, celebratory images, along with a dressy outfit for polished, posed portraits. You’re also welcome to bring a more casual look that reflects your personality. Choosing solid colors or soft, neutral tones works best and keeps the focus on you while creating a clean, cohesive gallery.
family session tips
from your photographer
For family portraits, I recommend choosing neutral tones like whites, creams, beiges, soft grays, and earthy colors. These shades photograph beautifully and complement any setting—whether we’re outdoors in nature or in a more urban location—without clashing or distracting from your connection as a family. Coordinating (rather than matching exactly) helps create a cohesive, timeless look that keeps the focus on you and your loved ones
Lifestyle newborn session tips
from your photographer
For the most beautiful, clean-looking images, I recommend tidying the spaces where your lifestyle newborn session will take place—typically the nursery, master bedroom, or living area. Keeping surfaces simple and clutter-free helps the focus stay on your baby and the connection within your family. For clothing, soft neutral tones photograph best, especially beige and white for shirts and dresses, as they create a timeless, light, and cohesive look throughout your gallery.
portrait & headshot session tips

I offer a variety of portrait sessions designed to capture life’s meaningful moments, big and small. Single portrait sessions are perfect for individuals of all ages—including your pets—whether you’re celebrating a milestone or simply want updated photos. Couples sessions include everything from engagements and surprise proposals to just-because portraits that reflect your connection. I also offer professional headshots for a polished profile or business use, as well as children’s portraits, including back-to-school photos, to document each new season of growth.
