Portrait Sessions

Portraits for individuals and couples. Not a senior, not a family shoot, not a headshot for work. Just a really good picture of you.

This is the catch-all session. You’re not a graduating senior, this isn’t a family shoot, and you don’t need corporate headshots. You just want a genuinely good photo of yourself, or of you and your person.

Maybe you’ve never had real portraits taken. Maybe the last decent picture of you is six years old. Maybe you just hit something worth marking and nobody thought to point a camera at you. All fine reasons.

Who books these
#

  • People who want one solid portrait for the way they actually look right now
  • Couples who want something better than a phone selfie at arm’s length
  • Dancers, performers, musicians, and creatives building a personal archive
  • Anyone marking a birthday, a new chapter, a big change, or nothing in particular
  • People who want a gift that isn’t another candle

What’s included
#

  • A planning conversation before we shoot, so we’re not figuring it out on the day
  • 60 minutes, one DFW-area location, one outfit change
  • Guided posing the entire time, so you’re never just standing there
  • 15 professionally edited photos
  • A private online gallery you can download and share, in 7 to 14 days

How it works
#

  1. Reach out: Tell me what you want, or tell me you have no idea. Both work.
  2. Plan: We pick a location, a time, and outfits that photograph well.
  3. Shoot: 60 minutes, fully directed. Most people relax about ten minutes in.
  4. Gallery: Edited photos land in 7 to 14 days.

Want something different? Underwater portraits are my signature session and they work for adults too, not just seniors. Building a business or a personal brand instead? Start at brand portraits. Graduating this year? The senior and graduation session is built for that.

Not sure which one fits? Just ask. See what everything costs first if that helps.

Real questions

Things people ask

I'm not a model. Am I going to look awkward?
Almost nobody I shoot is a model. That’s the whole reason the session is guided start to finish. I’ll tell you where to put your hands, how to angle, when to breathe. You don’t have to know what you’re doing, that’s my job.
Can we do this as a couple?
Yes. Couples are a big part of this page. Same 60 minutes, same price, and we’ll build in a mix of the two of you together plus a few solo frames each.
Where do you shoot?
Anywhere in DFW that fits the look you want. Parks and open fields for golden hour, downtown Plano or Dallas for something more editorial, or studio-style lighting set up on location if you want it bolder. I’ll suggest spots once I know your vibe.
Can I change outfits?
One outfit change is included. If you want more looks than that, reach out and we’ll add time to the session.
What if it rains?
We reschedule, no drama. Texas weather does what it wants. If you’re on a deadline we can move to a covered location or go studio-style instead.
How long until I get my photos?
7 to 14 days, delivered through a private online gallery you can download and share. Your gallery showing up exactly when I said it would is kind of a point of pride.
What if the person being photographed is under 18?
A parent or guardian needs to stay for the entire session. You don’t have to be in frame, but I want an adult there start to finish.

Got something in mind?

I book a limited number of sessions each month, so the calendar fills up. Tell me what you have in mind and we'll find a date that works.
