The Portrait Experience
For individuals, families, and those who love them — including the pets who are family.
Portraits created with care, patience, and intention
Portrait photography doesn’t need to feel rushed, awkward, or overly posed. My work is built around creating a thoughtful experience where people — and pets — can simply be themselves.
Whether I am photographing your family, yourself, or the pets who shares your life, the goal is the same: images that feel honest, connected, and meaningful long after the session is over.
I work with a limited number of clients so each experience feels personal, unhurried, and carefully guided from start to finish.
This experience is right for you if…
You want portraits that reflect who you are and what is important to you
You consider your pet part of your family
You value patience, flexibility, and a calm presence
You appreciate guidance without pressure or formulaic posing
You want finished artwork you’ll actually live with and enjoy
If you’re looking for the fastest or cheapest option, this may not be the right fit — and that’s okay.
What the experience feels like
Every session begins with a conversation. This allows me to understand what matters to you, how you want to be photographed, and what will help you feel most comfortable.
During the session, I offer gentle direction while allowing space for natural interaction and connection. You don’t need to know how to pose, and your pet doesn’t need perfect training. We move at a pace that feels right, adapting as needed.
The result is a flexible, relaxed experience — and images that reflect real personality, relationships, and emotion rather than performance.
The kinds of portraits I create
People & Their Pets
For those who want to be photographed alongside the animals who are part of their everyday lives and stories.
Families, Children, & Individuals
Portraits that reflect connection and genuine interaction — not forced smiles or rigid posing.
Pets Only
Low pressure sessions that honor your pet’s personality, whether playful, reserved, curious, or somewhere in between.
Your images as finished artwork
Portraits are meant to be enjoyed, not stored away and forgotten.
After your session, you’ll be guided through selecting artwork that fits your home and your life — from wall pieces to albums and heirloom-quality prints. The focus is on creating something lasting, designed to be seen and lived with for years to come.
