Lets go make art, and capture a little bit of yourself!
You're looking to have photos taken for a reason. We're going to find that reason, and make sure you're getting exactly what you're looking for. My goal is for you to feel amazing after getting your images, and strong, and honestly, to start talking about your next shoot right away.
The rough plan:
01.
Fill out the contact sheet
There's a good chance I know you already, and we'll skip this step, or I filled it out for you, but this gives me information that I can use, (and often forget to ask for) to deliver your images, or communicate with you about your session.
02.
Talk
We'll talk via messenger, phone calls, carrier pigeon, in person, whatever works to get the wardrobe, concept, and location figured out before we schedule anything.
03.
Schedule and Shoot
In our discussions, we'll schedule location, hair and makeup, assistants, and whatever other things we need to put together to accomplish our goals, and capture the perfect session.
04.
Delivery
I typically take 1-2 weeks to cull and edit your session. This can vary a little bit, depending on a bunch of factors, but I want you to have them as quickly as possible. After delivery, we have the ability to discuss printing small and large pieces of art, or books if you'd like to have something more tangible.
Frequent Questions
I've never done this before, what do we do?
The reality is, whatever you want. It depends a lot on what you want to use the photos for, who is going to see them. I'm up for just about anything, from a typical bed or couch boudoir session, all the way up to setting up a scene on a snowy mountain path.
What should I wear?
This is one of the first questions we want to answer. Do you want to buy some fancy or high end lingerie. Did you make a really special costume or piece of clothing. Is there something you've always admired. Me and the people around me, will absolutely start with what you want to be photographed in, and build the session around that.
How many pictures will I receive?
It varies greatly. I very rarely deliver less than 20 digitals, but I don't limit it, or make any guarantees. Sometimes we are after one image, and that's all that matters, other times, it takes more to tell the story.
Are you available outside of Denver?
I'm happy to travel. I do so whenever I can. If you want to give me a reason to come to your area, I'm happy to figure that out.
Do you do couples photography?
Sure. To elaborate a little, I'll shoot Men, women, non-binary, couples, and any other combination you can think of, if the project is right. I don't typically shoot events, or weddings etc, but there's always exceptions to the rule.
Can I schedule after I lose 5, 10, 20, 50 lbs?
Sure, but will you? I'm still waiting for Rae to schedule a shoot she bought at a charity auction in 2016. (Yes, I called you out here, you found it, so maybe it's time to schedule?) So here's my promise. You book now, we shoot now. You lose the weight, reach out, I'll give you a heavily discounted shoot, the same, or different than the first one.
What kind of editing do you do?
I do basic edits. Color correction, white balance, brightness/tone adjustments, and a crop. I will occasionally remove background items, and blemishes that are distracting. However, I do not retouch, remove scars, or reshape you. I much prefer you the way you are. We'll use posing and wardrobe to make you look your best. I promise.
