My Photography Process
Whether you need a new headshot, coverage of an event, or photographs for your restaurant or product brand, here’s what to expect when working with me.
1. Choose your session or tell me about your project
For individual headshots, explore the session options and request a time that works for you. I’ll review your request and email you to confirm or suggest another time.
For events, restaurant or product photography, start with the details of your project - what you need photographed, the location and your timing.
2. Get ready for your shoot
The preparation depends on what we’re photographing. That might mean choosing an outfit for a headshot, sharing an event schedule, or deciding which dishes and products to feature. We’ll focus on the details that matter for your shoot.
3. Your shoot
For headshots, I’ll guide you through the session to help you look natural and feel comfortable. At an event, the focus shifts to the people, moments and details that tell the story. For restaurant and product shoots, we’ll work through the planned photographs, using lighting, composition and styling to reflect your brand’s identity.
4. Receive your finished photos
You’ll receive the finished photographs included in your session or project. Image selection, editing and delivery details depend on the service you choose.
A different approach for each type of shoot
Headshots
A relaxed session with clear guidance helps you feel comfortable in front of the camera. Together, we’ll create natural, polished portraits that make a confident first impression on LinkedIn, your website and professional profiles.
Events & retreats
I capture the energy of your event, the connections between people and the moments that make it worth remembering. You’ll have a collection of images to share with your community, tell your organization’s story and promote future events.
Restaurants & menus
Show diners what makes your restaurant worth a visit, from signature dishes and cocktails to the atmosphere they’ll enjoy. I create appetizing, inviting images that bring your menu to life across your website, social media and online ordering.
Products & food brands
Your photos should show what makes your products distinctive and feel like part of your brand. We’ll shape the lighting, backgrounds and styling around that identity, creating a consistent look across your online store, packaging and marketing campaigns.
A few questions before you start
How do I book a headshot session?
Explore the options on the Headshot Sessions page, choose a session and request a date and time. I’ll email you to confirm or suggest another time.
What should I include in a project inquiry?
Tell me what you need photographed, the location, your timing and how you plan to use the images. If you’re still working out the details, describe what you know so far.
