FAQs

 

Why work with me?

My process is unlike any other. From our first conversation, the entire experience is tailored to you. I’ll get to know your strengths, your vision, and your favorite parts of yourself so I can draw them all out on camera. I have years of experience coaching women on camera, but my favorite skill is something you cannot teach: connecting real women to a deeper, lasting sense of beauty.

What if I’m not quite camera-ready?

I am here to change your mind. You don’t need to lose extra pounds or stick to “your good side”— my process will change the way you see yourself. Leave it to me, I’m professionally trained in making women look their absolute best. My goal is to leave you with a lasting feeling of self-affirmation, joy, and peace. That’s something worth celebrating every day.

What’s included in a portrait session?

I’ve carefully crafted Luxe Portraiture sessions to take care of it all while exceeding expectations. Read more about everything included in my process, here.

How much will you edit my photos?

My extensive editing style and post-processing of images always includes something that, in the editorial fashion and beauty industry, is called “retouching.” My editing style may differ from what you are used to: with every touch, I guard your natural beauty to express its magnitude. Yes, we soften lines, brighten smiles, and perfect pores, but the goal prioritizes enchanting, full-spectrum edits. This type of post-processing requires an experienced, artistic eye and, when performed properly, enlivens each portrait to jump from its frame while preserving its authenticity.

When’s the best occasion for a shoot?

Too many women think they need a “reason” to be photographed. This experience is different -- it’s designed for today because you are worth it now. Why wait for a bridal shoot, maternity shoot, or other milestone to celebrate yourself? Everyday is a gift. The right to feel beautiful does not need to be earned.

Why choose Luxe Portraiture over any other photoshoot?

Luxe Portrait Sessions are a full-service, to-the-nines experience you won’t forget. From the different studio sets, to the dedicated team, to the champagne, every element is designed to give you an A-list experience. Trust me, this is nothing like that time you sat for headshots. This is a creme de la creme, let-your-hair-down, next level of luxury, with iconic editorial-style shots that portray the real you.

What should I wear?

I’ll work one-on-one with you to style the perfect outfits. Before the shoot, I’ll conduct a consultation to help you comb through your wardrobe. If you want to go shopping, I’ll recommend pieces to track down. The ideal outfit makes you feel both right at home and emboldened while channeling that cover-page spirit.

What will it cost?

The Portrait Session fee is $1250, which gives you an $800 Studio Credit towards your print purchase. Printed Photo Collections start at $2300.
