FAQ

Where are you based & do you travel?

I am based in Bonney Lake, WA and yes, I LOVE traveling for sessions. Adventure is always calling!

How long do photos take to get back?

An average gallery delivery takes 4-6 weeks!
Wedding clients will receive a custom timeline for delivery (Average 8-12 weeks!)

We have never gotten our photos taken, is that okay?

This is absolutely okay and very normal for most of my clients! I take the stress off of worrying about poses and help guide you through with natural prompts to get you comfortable and smiling! Whether it's couples, family, or solo portraits I am here to help you look and feel your best! :)

Do you help recommend locations?

Yes, I do! Each session is unique with its own specific occasion and vibe. I learn what your perfect vision is and help bring it to life with a long list of beautiful PNW locations that I frequent often or have scoped out previously!

An approach to photography that is relaxed, organic, and true to you.



I'm here to tell your story as authentically as I can.
I want you to be smiling ear to ear and enjoy yourself fully with every passing moment.

When guiding you through poses my goal is to keep you feeling at ease, connected, and present with one another, so you can leave feeling warm, fuzzy, and happy with your experience!

It's most important that you feel comfortable and free to be yourself in front of the camera (as photoshoots can be daunting for many!)  This way every photograph reflects  intimate connection and authentic emotion.
