There’s a moment at the beginning of almost every session when someone tells me, “I’m awkward in front of the camera.” And every single time, I smile–because I’ve got you. I make it my mission to help you feel natural, confident, and genuinely yourself from the very first click. I've been called "the ultimate hype girl" on numerous occasions, with one client even coining the term "hype-tographer."
I’ll guide you through poses and prompts that feel authentic, cheer you on like a best friend, and quietly fix the tiny details you’d never notice until you saw the photo later (flyaways, twisted jewelry, awkward pockets… I see it all). By the time we’re done, you’ll forget the camera is even there, and your only job will be to enjoy the moment.
Around here, it’s not just about delivering beautiful images. It’s about creating an experience where you feel guided, supported, and free to be yourself.
Over the past decade, I’ve adapted to every lighting condition, timeline curveball, and unique personality with calm confidence. My approach blends thoughtful guidance with natural, in-between moments. The end result is vibrant, colorful images that tell your story.
