Hey there! I’m so glad you’re considering a portrait session with me! I like to keep things easygoing and stress-free, so here’s what you can expect: Before the session, I’ll send over an online contract and questionnaire to get to know you a bit better, plus some outfit suggestions to help you feel confident and look your best. Sessions typically last about an hour, and I’ll guide you through everything so you’re never left wondering what to do with your hands! After we wrap up, I’ll carefully edit your images—usually at least 20 final photos —and you can expect your finished gallery delivered within two weeks.  It’s all about making the experience fun, relaxed, and totally personalized to you.
