When was the last time you had your portrait made?

MY APPROACHES

Let's talk about what kind of artwork you are looking for.
LIFESTYLE

My lifestyle approach portrays people doing the things they usually enjoy, with room for spontaneous situations in a relaxed and casual manner. And while I do guide you throughout the session, I will also ask you to enjoy the moment and be yourself so I can capture your personality and natural expressions.

These sessions take place on location (which can be your home or somewhere you feel comfortable, indoors or outdoors) and work very well for family sessions, couples’ & engagement sessions, and maternity portraits.

COUTURE

My portrait couture approach provides studied portraits, that are more carefully planned and posed to bring out your best features. Depending on the portrait you want, these will focus on accentuating beauty, relationships or professionalism – for example for your LinkedIn profile. During the session I will be pose-directing you to make you look your best through the lens.

These sessions take place on location or in studio and work best for professional head-shots, maternity or mother & daughter portraits, couples, model books and boudoir portraits.

ABOUT THE SESSIONS

Planning the shoot will involve selecting a style or concept, a location, and time & date. I usually do a pre-consultation to cover all these subjects, and talk about your expectations. The sessions’ length will vary depending on the kind of portraits you want, but they usually take around an hour – make sure to consider some extra time if toddlers are joining the shoot (and an extra outfit in case of emergency! :). Once your session has been scheduled, I will plan the shoot accordingly and send you the relevant guides with tips so that you know the best way to prepare for your shoot.

Session packages start at 180€, more details on the sessions & packages as well as printed products available can be found on the guides below.

YOUR PHOTOS, YOUR ARTWORK.

HOW DO I MAKE SURE I LOOK MY BEST FOR THE SHOOT?
Before the session, we can go over any specific topics that may concern you. You will also receive my guide on beauty tips that will help you make sure to make the best out of your portaits!
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR TO MY SESSION?
I am happy to help you choose the appropriate outfits for your session. However as a general rule, I always point my clients towards comfy & fitted clothes - if your clothes are big on you, you will look bigger than you actually are. Wear clothes that you feel good in and avoid big logos or graphics that may end up being distracting in the final portraits. But don't worry, before your session we can go over any doubts and get you ready for it 🙂
HOW DO I CHOOSE MY PORTRAITS?
Ten days after the session, your ordering session will take place. At this point you will be presented with a selection of fully edited images from which you will select your favorite artwork and may choose to upgrade your package, add extra images individually to your order or purchase print products.
DO I GET TO KEEP THE DIGITAL FILES?
Yes. You will receive fully edited and high resolution files for the images you have selected, as well as low resolution for practical purposes. You can always add more images to your order.
WILL YOU PHOTOSHOP MY PHOTOS?
All the photos I will present you will be retouched but I keep it to a level in which your skin will not look like plastic. Photoshop is a tool best saved as a last resort 😉 However, if you have specific concern about how something may or may not show on your images, do let me know so I can fix it!
