My pictures came out so great! She made me feel so comfortable throughout the entire shoot and was amazing at guiding me on what to do so I didn’t feel awkward in front of the camera. I showed her my inspiration, and she absolutely brought it to life. I’m so happy with the results and will definitely be using her again!
Details: Solo portrait • Traditional / classic (looking directly at the camera) • Artistic (focus on composition, lighting) • Candid (captured in the moment) • High fashion (highlights style) • I'm flexible • At the pro’s location

She adapted to last minute plans easily when the original backfired. Allowed me to take extra senior photos free of cost when I had forgotten my honor cords. I had over 60 photos to look through at the end of both of my sessions! Very respectful and responsive, she treated me like an equal despite my age. Trained incredibly well in photos more creative than the normal set of senior photos. Was always right on time and kind.
Details: Graduation portrait • Traditional / classic (looking directly at the camera) • Candid (captured in the moment) • Artistic (focus on composition, lighting) • I'm flexible • My home, venue, etc. • At the pro’s location
