all about your session
with simply joyful moments
The best way to capture real images is for you to be relaxed and comfortable. No one likes to be stressed out or flustered, especially when having their portraits taken. Let me take the guess work and stress out of it for you! :) I will walk you through everything, step by step, and help you create the session and artwork that you dream of.
before session planning
When you book your session, we will get together to talk about what your goals are for your portrait session. Are you wanting to use the images to create an heirloom album that can be kept out on the coffee table and enjoyed for generations? Are you wanting to create a beautiful custom designed gallery wall filled with images of your newborn or family? Do you have a special someone in mind and you are wanting to create a one-of-a-kind gift for them? We will not only plan out and design your session, but you will also be able to see and touch the high quality products that I offer in my Uptown Columbus studio. Each detail will be designed just for you and your family.
your session
Sessions are casual and relaxed. There is no need for a portrait session to be stressful or rushed. I like to have fun with the little kids and try to make the session pain free for both the teenagers and the dads. ;) Newborn sessions are peaceful and calm, with white noise and low lights to ease baby into a deep sleep. The private studio has plenty of room for the whole family, with ample comfortable seating.
after your session
After your session, I take time selecting your images and hand editing each one. My style is classic, clean, and colorful, with a modern touch. Professional retouching is included with every session. Time and care is taken to ensure each image is ready to be hung as art in your home.
reveal and ordering appointment
Approximately two weeks after your session, we will meet again in studio for the big reveal! This is always my favorite part, I cannot wait to see you view your images for the first time! :) This reveal and ordering appointment is when you will get to view all of your images not on a screen, but instead as 5x7 prints! This adds a special touch that digital galleries cannot provide. It is artwork already printed that you can see and feel.
