INTIMATE
A modern take on boudoir: a self-love session. Ranging from soft to sexy, I want to make you feel hot—clothing optional. We can shoot you sipping tea in a tank top and briefs in your kitchen, rolling around your bedroom, or romping around outside. I will help pose you, fix your hair, hype you up and tell you how hot you look. The goal of these sessions is to empower you in your body and provide you with super hot photos of yourself.
A lot of these sessions have been shot at the beach and involve getting in the water. If you’re going to get in the ocean in your underwear, I’m doing it with you. Just saying.
Sessions start at $700
COUPLES + MAternity
Engagement photos, to celebrate an anniversary or a new baby, or just because! Typically a couples shoot involves romping around outside at sunset, not being afraid to get a little dirty or mess up your hair, and having lots of fun. I will help direct and pose you, but I really excel at capturing couples in their natural state and expression of love for each other. I consider my work elevated documentary, or editorial meets documentary style. I also love intimate shoots in your home or your favorite dive bar. Let’s have a picnic or go swimming or make pasta at home.
Sessions start at $800 for 60 minutes
BESTIES
Because friendship is just as important as romantic relationships. Let’s capture you and your best friend. At home in your kitchen where you’ve spent countless evenings drinking wine and playing cards. Shopping at the farmers’ market to make a big meal together. Browsing your favorite bookstore, having a drink at your favorite bar.
I also love shooting bachelorette parties!
Sessions start at $800 for 60 minutes
ELOPEMENTS + INTIMATE WEDDINGS
For couples who are more interested in being present for their celebration than having their wedding feel like a photoshoot. I love couples who know how to throw a good party. Couples who go skinny dipping in the ocean at midnight with their wedding party. Couples who rent a vintage car for their getaway. Couples who get iced by their friends while trying to cut the cake. (Yes all these have happened at my weddings.)
I take an elevated documentary approach, capturing your day and all the details as it unfolds, through an artistic lens. We’ll snap some family photos and spend some time on couples portraits, but for the most part I want to blend seamlessly into your party. I love shooting intimate weddings outdoors and elopements at San Francisco City Hall, especially when they end at your favorite bar eating chicken wings.
All love is celebrated here.
Elopements start at $2000
Weddings start at $5200
FAMILY
Full chaos encouraged. I shoot family photos in a super documentary style, in order to capture your family as it is at this moment in time. At home, at the beach, at the park. We’ll bring toys and snacks (or have a full on picnic of pizza or burritos). We’ll grab a few classic, smiling-at-the-camera photos at the beginning for Grandma’s fridge, then we’ll let the kids lead the session. We’ll play and roll around and definitely leave a little dirty.
Sessions start at $700
45 minutes to keep the kids happy
