I GET PAID TO YAPP?!

Let’s Get Personal: Why Your Photo Session Should Feel Like Hanging Out With Your Bestie

Okay, let’s start with a little confession:
I’m a certified yapper—and proud of it! I’m the kind of person who wants to know everything. Not in a nosy way (well, maybe just a little 👀), but because I genuinely care. I want to know the who, the what, the when, the where, and especially the why behind your photo session. Are you celebrating something special? Documenting a huge life change? Just want to feel cute and seen? Whatever your reason—I’m all in! I always say: The more I know, the better your session will feel. And trust me, that little bit of extra connection makes all the difference.

When you message me to book a session, I’m not just replying with dates and rates. I’m already picturing how to make your shoot come alive. I want to know your vision—what kind of look you’re going for, what vibe you want to capture, and how I can make it reflect you. Are we shooting golden hour magic in the desert? Something fun and bold in the city? Soft and sweet in a studio? Let’s dream it up together.

We’ll talk details, too—like what you’re planning to wear, whether we need any props (yes, I’ve got ideas for everything from maternity gowns to birthday balloons), and if we’re bringing a cake, a pet, or even your best friend for emotional support (please do, I love meeting people’s people!). I want every part of your session to be intentional and custom-tailored to you.

And look—this isn’t just a job for me. I’m not in it to just snap a few pics, send a gallery, and move on. I love what I do because I get to meet incredible people and be part of their most meaningful moments. I genuinely enjoy the conversations we have before, during, and after the session. I want to know about your kids, your relationship, your big career move, the birthday you’re nervous or excited about. And yes, if you want to sprinkle in some casual gossip or vent about life—I’m 100% here for it. Your session is your time.

I’m basically your photographer and your built-in hype girl. I’m the one behind the camera yelling “Yesss queen!” when your hair’s blowing in the wind just right or you laugh mid-pose and it turns out to be the shot. I’ll probably be doing a little dance behind the camera when I see how stunning you look. I want the experience to feel joyful, stress-free, and honestly? FUN. Because when you’re relaxed and enjoying yourself, it shows. That energy shines through in your photos—and that’s the difference between just “getting pictures done” and actually capturing a moment.

Too often, photography can feel stiff, rushed, or transactional. You show up, smile a few times, and leave. And sure, you might walk away with a few nice photos—but did you really feel seen? Did you enjoy the experience? Or did it just feel like another thing to check off your to-do list?

When you work with me, it’s different. I want this to be something you look forward to. I want to create a safe, welcoming, high-energy space where you feel totally yourself. No pressure, no awkward silences—just good vibes, great photos, and a photographer who’s in your corner from the moment you book to the final edit.

So if you’re looking for more than just a photographer—if you want someone who truly cares about the why behind your session, someone who laughs with you, listens to you, and hypes you up through the whole process—I’d love to work with you. Let’s create something special together, and let’s make it unforgettable

At the end of the day, I’m not just here to take pretty pictures—I’m here to create an experience you’ll actually enjoy and remember. I care about the story behind your session, the little details that make it you, and making sure you feel comfortable, confident, and hyped the entire time.

So if you’re looking for more than just a photographer—if you want someone who’s fun, invested, and all about capturing the real moments—you’ve found your girl. Let’s create something special together ✨📸
