Frequently Asked Questions

This page is here to answer the questions that often come up once something begins to feel right. The practical ones. The quiet ones. The ones that help you understand how this experience works and whether it feels aligned for you.

If you don’t see your question here, you’re always welcome to reach out. Our first conversation is simply a chance to connect.

How do we get started?

Everything begins with a relaxed conversation. This is not a sales call and there’s no pressure to decide anything. It’s simply a chance for us to talk, for you to ask questions, and to see if working together feels like a good fit.

What is that first conversation like?

Think of it as a thoughtful check-in. I’ll ask a few gentle questions to understand what matters to you, where you are in this chapter, and what you’re hoping to feel through the experience. You’re welcome to share as much or as little as feels comfortable.

I’m nervous or uncomfortable in front of the camera. Is that okay?

Absolutely. Most people feel this way at first, and you’re not expected to know what to do or how to show up. My role is to guide you with care and encouragement so you feel supported, relaxed, and confident as we go.

How far in advance should we reach out?

Timing varies depending on the experience you’re considering. Weddings tend to book further in advance, while other experiences are often planned closer to the time you’re ready. If something feels important to you, it’s always a good idea to reach out sooner rather than later.

Do you work with a limited number of people each year?

Yes. To honor the level of care and presence this work requires, I intentionally work with a limited number of clients each year. This allows me to be fully present throughout the entire experience.

What happens after our experience?

Once our time together is complete, I guide you through a thoughtful process to help you choose how this chapter will live on in your home or your life. Nothing is rushed, and you’re supported every step of the way.

Is artwork required?

Artwork is an important part of how many families, couples, and individuals choose to honor this experience, but nothing is required. We’ll talk through what feels meaningful to you and make decisions together from there.

What makes your approach different?

My work is rooted in presence, guidance, and intention. This is not about performing for the camera or rushing through a checklist. It’s about feeling seen, supported, and recognized for who you are in this chapter.

Where do sessions take place?

Locations are chosen thoughtfully to support the story and the experience. This might be outdoors, in your home, or in the studio, depending on what feels most aligned for you.

How do we move forward if it feels right?

If, after our conversation, we both feel aligned, I’ll guide you through the next steps clearly and simply. There’s no pressure, just a shared understanding of what comes next.

If this feels aligned, the next step is simply a conversation.
