What to Expect From Your Photo Session

Photo sessions in Vancouver, Washington are most popular in spring and summer, when outdoor locations and natural scenery are at their best. Summer photo sessions are the busiest time of year, so it’s recommended to book early to secure your preferred date. If you have a specific deadline, be sure to plan ahead and allow time for your final images to be delivered.

You’ll have access to my Select Location Guide, featuring 35+ thoughtfully chosen locations across Southwest Washington, the Portland metro, and beyond. From flower gardens and open fields to modern city spots and indoor studios, you’ll have a variety of styles to choose from. I’m also always open to your ideas if you have a meaningful or special location in mind.

Absolutely. Most clients feel this way at first, and that’s completely normal. Every session is fully guided, so you’ll always know what to do. I focus on creating a relaxed, comfortable environment so you can be yourself, with natural posing and direction throughout. We’ll also plan everything during your Session Consultation so you feel confident and prepared going in.

All clients receive a Style Look-Book with styling tips to help you choose outfits that photograph beautifully while still feeling like you. Based on over 10 years of experience, I’ll guide you on what works best on camera. You’ll also have access to my Client Closet, with thoughtfully selected pieces you can borrow at no additional cost. We’ll go over your outfits during your Session Consultation to make sure everything comes together seamlessly.

All clients receive my Glam Guide upon booking, with hair, makeup, and nail inspiration, along with professional tips for your photo session. Since makeup can photograph differently than it appears in person, I’ll guide you on what works best on camera. I’m also happy to share my list of trusted hair and makeup artists in Vancouver, Washington and the Portland, Oregon area.

As a portrait photographer in Vancouver, Washington, rain is always a possibility, especially during the months of November through March. If rain is in the forecast, we can reschedule to a date that works for both of us.
