WHAT KIND OF PHOTOGRAPHER ARE YOU?

I am a passionate lifestyle family photographer. I am also extremely chill and laid back. I strive to capture raw and genuine emotions. If you're looking for stiff-posed images, I'm not the photographer for you. I will direct and guide you and your family for a seamless session. Don't let that scare you and think, “my kids are horrible with directions.”  As I mentioned earlier, I want to capture raw emotions, so don't worry, it'll all work out in the end. 

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN A PHOTOGRAPHER?

I started my Professional Career as a Photographer in 2016.

ARE YOU GOING TO WEAR A MASK DURING OUR SESSION?

During outside sessions, I do not wear a mask, unless otherwise requested by the family. Before a session, I always wash my hands and sanitize before I start the session. For indoor sessions, I will not wear a mask unless requested by the family.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR TO THE SESSION?

This is an easy answer. Wear something that reflects who you are and wear something that makes go feel good. Don't overthink it. If you normally don't wear dresses, don't force yourself to wear a dress. Need more information about what to wear, check out this blog.  

WHERE WILL MY SESSION BE HELD?

I offer studio, in-home sessions, and outdoor sessions. Studio sessions are held at my studio near downtown Amarillo. In the home, sessions are at your own home.
