Leave No Trace - And How It Applies to Your Session Can you believe there are actually people in the world that don’t throw their trash away? They leave garbage and plastic in a park, on the beach, really just whenever.... So let’s agree we’ll collectively never be those people. This means packing everything up to your session that we bring. If you popped a bottle finding and picking up the cork. If you bring a furry friend keeping them on leash and picking up after them. We only have one earth and we all have to share so let’s make sure we all do our part to take care of it 🌏❤️ 
All people should be treated equally regardless of who they are or who they love 💜💙💚💛🧡❤️

Don’t we all hate waiting for photos?? I know whenever I take photos of myself I must immediately edit and then bask in all the glory😂 But, this is exactly why I’m updating updating all of my turn around times. Because if I waiting I know you do too! So, for any session yes literally any session you will have your gallery back within 1 week. Yes, one week - seven days however you wanna say it. That’s it. With the goal eventually to cut that time down even more🤯 You hate waiting I hate waiting so let’s just give you what you want. 
First looks😍 yes or no? How do we feel about them? ❤️ Personally, I love them and for the longest time I was an absolute no on them and wanted the “big” reaction at the alter. Oh how things have changed! 🤩 Because what if instead of getting one reaction you got two? 🤭 At the end of the day most couples are just wanting a reaction. A moment where their partner goes WHOA🥺😍 but whose to say that that wouldn’t happen twice? 🥺 And you know what a lot of time it does happen twice. And both times are as special and memorable. So, what are you thinking now? Are you going to do a first look? 
Who doesn’t love candid style photos?! I know personally they’re what I’m drawn towards. 🥺 You might think “We can’t get those.” “We’re not photogenic like that.” “We’ll be lucky if we get a couple good photos from our session.”And you’d be dead wrong. 🙅🏽♀️ Because honestly it has really nothing to do with you. Let me tell you right now you’re great, you’re perfect, you look stunning! It’s about how I’l help bring that all out in front of a camera. 😍 And that’s all that my job is. Because everyone deserves to see their beauty in photos. And everyone has a right to be confident in front of camera. So, let me help💕 Booking couples sessions and engagements now! Don’t be shy shoot me a DM😊 
Lookin good feelin better Because honestly sometimes when you look good on the outside you can feel your absolute best on the inside💕 
How to decide on the perfect outfit for photos? 🤷🏽♀️ Let’s talk about it👇🏽 Color palette - Think of your location and what won’t fade into the scenery. You probably don’t want to be wearing olive green in the forest. 🤍 Coordinating - We don’t want to match top for top and bottom for bottom that’s just like sooo 2000s😬 when you choose a color palette you’re able to pick from those colors it just all goes together 👕👗 Timeless - such a broad word and yet an outfit or something definitely popped into your head when you read it. You want to pick something that can withstand all the trends and what’s hot right now. Because the photos will definitely last a lot longer then whenever trend was in style when you took them. ✨ Did these help at all? Let me know in the comments😊 
Do you wanna know the best way to avoid looking awkward in photos? 🤔 Embracing it. 🌟 I will be the first one to admit that not every photos of me is a winner and there are plenty of photos of me looking straight up weird and awkward. But, you know what? That’s totally fine with me. 💁🏽♀️ Whenever I try to force a certain look or pose that truly isn’t me that’s when things start looking a little awk. But, when I embrace who I am and what I love about myself those pictures are golden✨
