FULL SESSION
PROCESS
My most luxurious and personalized portrait experience, designed for those who want the very best. Full Sessions include an in-studio wardrobe fitting from the client closet, a style questionnaire, and a Zoom consultation to finalize creative direction, outfits and set design.
With professional hair and makeup provided throughout the session, extended shooting time, multiple outfit changes, and editorial lighting setups, the experience feels like a relaxed, fashion-magazine photoshoot and thoughtfully tailored to you.
Full Sessions are ideal for those envisioning a complete gallery of refined, high-production portraits and can be customized to include family, personal branding, and glamour imagery in one session.
STEP ONE
Once you’ve booked your session date, we’ll book a time for you to come into the studio for your Fitting Session. This is where you’ll be able to try on all the outfits from my Client Closet that piques your interest. I’ll be there to take photos on your phone so you can go home and decide exactly which outfits you’d like to wear for your session.
Although most of the outfits are shown on maternity bodies, they can be worn on non-maternity bodies with the help of clips to ensure a proper fit.
STEP TWO
After the fitting session, you’ll receive an in-depth questionnaire allowing me to better understand you and customize your session, design and plan it from the ground up so it’s specifically tailored to your vision and style. This is where you’ll let me know which outfits you want to wear during your session. Also, if you have found great inspiration or have specific ideas, now is the time to lay it all out.
STEP THREE
Next, we’ll book you in for your pre-session consultation through a Zoom meeting, where we’ll go over the details you filled out in your questionnaire and really map out your session day piece by piece.
We will discuss everything from when your partner, pets or children will arrive, what you need to bring and prepare to the backdrops, colour schematics, lighting, clothing and everything in between to ensure we’re both on the same page. Lastly, I will answer any questions you may have and we’ll be all set to go!
STEP FOUR
On the day of your session, you’ll arrive at my studio with clean hair and clean face where the makeup artist will glam you up to your preference. Hair and makeup takes around 1.5-2hrs depending on how much hair you have.
I will guide you with beautiful poses and expressions and help you feel as natural and comfortable throughout your shoot while playing your favourite artists and songs in the background. Remember, it is my job to make sure you look good!
Lastly, this day is all about you and should not be rushed. I want to make sure everything goes seamlessly. Expect to be at my studio for at least 5 hours including time for hair and makeup. I do recommend bringing snacks or a small meal with you on the day of your session.
STEP FIVE
At the end of the session, while I am cleaning up the studio, you’ll go over all the photos we took and heart your favourite images. You don’t need to make your final selections, but just heart the ‘good ones’.
I will upload all your favourite images to a proofing gallery, allowing you to view and select your photos at your convenience. The images in the gallery will have a watermark, however, your final chosen images will be delivered without watermarks. During this time, you can select which images you’d like retouched and, if you wish, purchase additional images or upgrade your collection.
I specialize in the high-end and detailed retouching that preserves the texture of your skin but etches away those pesky imperfections and bumps here and there.
STEP SIX
Your retouched images will be ready in 4 weeks and will be sent to you via email through WeTransfer. It’s at this time you can let me know if I missed any details and I will gladly correct them for you. My goal is to make sure you love your portraits!
