Storytelling Sessions
More than just "pretty photos"
images that capture not just what your love looks like, but how it feels
Thank you for being interested in my art! I am excited to be able to capture your love story!
My approach is all about feeling comfortable and having fun! If you feel super stiff, or forced into awkward poses, your photos will reflect that. When we work together, you will find yourself running around, dancing, playing games, and genuinely enjoying your time.
I am not about forcing a "pose" that doesn't reflect who you are! I will prompt and guide you the entire session, while also giving you two room to just exist as a couple and do what feels natural to you!
I take inspiration from movies, books, art, and music. Your love story deserves its own moment! Bot just copying other's poses from Pinterest. Think of yourselves as characters in your own romantic comedy! Where has your love taken you? where is it going? I am here to help you tell that story!!
Think outside of the box
Your photos shouldn't be about what's trending, let's create a session that is true to you
Get rid of the idea that your photos have to look a certain way. You don't have to wear matching white outfits, standing in a field of wheat (although if that is your vibe, I will totally capture it for you. However, your photos should represent who YOU are, not just what you see on social media. This is the time to reflect on who you are as a couple.
Maybe you want to take your photos where you had your first date, or at the coffee shop where you met. Maybe for you, your love is relaxed, and intimate. for you, your session could look like you two playing board games at home, eating pizza, and enjoying each other's presence.
Choosing an activity or location that is meaningful to you, will make you and your partner more comfortable in front of the camera, and create images that are special to you as a couple.
Some ideas for your session:
- coffee shop date, followed by a bike ride around your neighborhood
- going to your favourite music/video store
- bowling, roller skating, or going to an arcade
- baking cookies at home together, dancing in the kitchen, mess and all
- hiking to the spot that you got engaged, reliving a favourite memory together
- running around your local thrift/antique store
the possibilities are endless! ultimately, your session should be a reflection of you as a couple, and i am here to help bring it to life!!

what do we do if we are awkward infront of the camera?
First off, I truly don't think anyone is actually awkward in front of the camera. know one naturally knows what to do when a camera is pointed at them and I don't expect you to either. first off, letting go of the ideas and expectations you have when you think of your shoot. During your session, I will guide you through movements that can feel awkward, but part of the process is trusting my creative vision and truly living in the moment of your shoot.
How many photos will we receive
I never guarantee a specific amount as every love story is different and the amount you receive will be based on many factors, including location, session type, activities, etc.
However, most session galleries have a minimum of 150 photos
What if it rains on our session date?
Moody skies? We embrace it! Overcast light is cinematic and beautiful. Shooting in the rain can be super romantic and cinematic. If that truly isn’t what you are hoping, we can find an indoor solution, or reschedule when the weather looks to be better
