Made my son’s Senior pictures so memorable for him. She definitely put a smile on our faces with her amazing work. True artist!

What a great experience, start to finish! I wasn’t entirely clear on what I needed and SSP answered my questions and gave great suggestions. The price is reasonable, she was flexible and easy to work with, and the photos turned out amazing! Quick turnaround, too. I definitely recommend!!

It was my first time ever getting professional photos and I couldn’t recommend her more. I had gotten photos for graduation and they came out spectacularly!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I price my time to include the hours of editing after the session.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to exchange a few messages and get an idea of what your looking for, setting the date and time of the session. I will come prepared with pose suggestions and arrive early to scope out the location! I like to capture natural images, but direct clients when necessary (or when I think I could capture something really beautiful!)
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been photographing friends and family for years. You can visit my work to see more.
