Your Editorial Experience Awaits

Booking info

You and I will first chat about your vision. If one doesn’t exist just yet, that’s fine too! We will craft it together. We will talk about the location, wardrobe collection and I will show you some of my work in print. 

There's no obligation to book after, but if you feel I am the right photographer for you, we'll talk details! I work with two published stylists and three award-winning makeup artists. My team and I will design the right look and vibe for your shoot. Most of my sessions start at 9:00 or 10:00 am. I shoot on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays. And yes, Fridays usually book fast! 

After booking payment is confirmed, I will send you my welcome email. It's usually chalk full with so many juicy details. Beauty & styling, brand look books, website reviews, mood boards....just a ton of things to get us both moving towards your customized session.

Your Session Day                                                                                                      

I will help you through the entire session, with posing, direction and comfort. We'll talk, laugh and you'll experience being a model and actually enjoy it!

Your Reveal Session                                                                                                          

I will schedule your reveal session about 2-3 weeks after your photo shoot (most times a lot sooner :-)). You'll review your top 25-30 images. I'll help you choose. No worries. :-) 

Do you have gift cards available?

I sure do! Contact me for more details. 

The women look so comfortable in front of the camera. I am not like that, can I do this?

It's my job to make sure you feel comfortable in front of the camera. I direct the entire shoot, posing for every body type, angles and curves, even facial expressions! I know my equipment well. I do as much as you need. Trust. I know exactly what women will not like in photos. You don't have to know what you're doing, I will prepare your session the whole way.

What should I wear?

I cover styling, wardrobe during consultations and my Beauty & Styling guide gives lots of ideas for outfits. A session typically has up to five outfit changes.

Can I bring a friend to my shoot?

I understand that sometimes, your best friend is exactly who you need to give you reassurance during your session! I don't mind if there is one friend with you during your session. However, I do ask that your friend not interfere with the shoot, or interrupt for cell phone photos, or direct.

Where will my photo session take place? Do you have a studio?

When in New York, I partner with two studios, one in the Hamptons and the other in New York City. Also, depending on our vision for the shoot, I have other locations I highly suggest. One of my favorites being the Green House… On Rock (St Thomas), I shoot at 81C Gallery.

Will my photos be on the internet?

No. I have an opt-in policy, thus only if you want them to be.

On which days of the week can I have my photo session?

Due to also being an airline pilot, I choose a very limited number of clients monthly. So naturally, availability fills up quickly. I do consultations on Mondays & Thursdays, and book sessions on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays between the hours of 9:00 am - 2:00 pm (Eastern). Adjustments can be made schedule-wise to accommodate your needs. Let’s chat and we will figure out which days will work best. 

What if I am outside of New York and St Thomas?

Shoot me a message, we can always discuss the specifics and strive to structure a resolution. 

How much is the investment?

The product menu starts at $2880. It is a sound value for your editorial shoot, which is provided by a team of accomplished professionals in their respective domains.
