my process

I want you to have confidence throughout your photoshoot experience with me, and that includes knowing what to expect!

Booking

First, we have an intro call to see how I can help you.

After our introductions, I’ll send you an invoice for the first phase of your shoot. After your invoice is paid, we will get you on the books.

When your first phase is booked, you will receive a link to a pre-production questionnaire. This helps me understand where you’re coming from, where you want to go, and what you need from me. It’s really important for your project and it should only take you about 30 minutes to give thoughtful answers.

Phases of a     

   Photoshoot

Phase 1: Photoshoot Design

  • The Photoshoot Design is the first phase of your project. This is when I develop my vision for your photoshoot. Design is a 3-day intensive when I learn about your project and ask you questions about your brand and intentions for these photos in a Pre-Production Questionnaire. Then I do research and convert all of these ideas into illustrated image plans. I present my concept to you and lay out how we will proceed to Photoshoot Production and make these pictures a reality!

    When my presentation is complete, you will receive an invoice for the photoshoot that I designed for you.

Phase 2: Photoshoot Production

  • My Photoshoot Production service creates the images that I proposed in the Photoshoot Design phase.

    If you would like to see your images as I make them, I can send you a link to view your images live. You can rate them, color code them, and leave comments. It’s so much fun!

Phase 3: Image Delivery

  • Get excited because this phase is when you receive your images! We will process selected images (includes adjustments and basic retouching). An email will alert you with a link when the gallery is ready to view and download. 🖤

    Links remain active for 30 days.

FAQ: Payment Terms

Each phase is invoiced separately. This means the payment (and therefore overall project) schedule is more or less up to you since payment is due before the next phase of work begins.
