I am booking grad sessions in the Charlotte studio

Class of 2026 is officially in the building! 🎓 We’re elevating the standard grad portrait with high-end studio setups and custom-built props. Loved the energy from this session. Now booking for May and June! 📸✨

Fresh studio session with the incredible Stephanie of NGTM (NextGen Talent Management). Really loved the clean, minimalist energy of this set. 📸✨

Had a blast with this creative session! There’s nothing like mixing a bit of whimsical scale with a classic studio look. Big thanks to the Anastasia Maye for bringing so much personality to the set.🥂🥂

Studio Hack: Creating architecture out of paper 📸✂️
I’ve been experimenting with ways to add depth to my studio setups without buying expensive props or relying on digital backdrops. I’m a big believer in practical effects when possible , so I decided to build this archway set myself using just two rolls of Savage seamless paper.
A huge thank you to Victoria Posey for coming through to help me test out the setup and dial in the lighting!

Now booking Class of 2026! 🎓 Skip the DIY and let’s create some professional portraits that actually capture your vibe. DM to grab a spot in the studio!

Had a fun little client moment today

Client: “I just want to do a 15-minute shoot.”
Me: “No problem, but I can actually give you a full hour for the same price — it’s better not to rush.”
Client: “But an hour costs too much…”
Me: 🤦‍♂️

For anyone wondering — I don’t charge by the minute, I charge per delivered photo and add-ons (retouching, extra looks, etc.).

Whether we shoot 15 minutes or 60, the goal is the same:
✅ You feel relaxed
✅ We’re not rushing
✅ You get great photos you actually love

Rushing = stress.
Time to breathe = better images. 📸✨
