Absolutely! Yvonne has been coaching and photographing women for a little over 20 years now. And don't worry everyone asks that. We don't work with trained models, we work with real women just like us. Meaning we know every trick in the book to make you look and feel relaxed. And we know all the most flattering poses!!!

Yes! We recommend you bring your own outfits for three reasons:

1) You will know it fits you in all the right places and you will have tried everything on before arriving which helps your confidence level.

2) While we have some lovely accessory options and a few lingerie pieces in the studio...we cannot carry a full closet of lingerie to accommodate every size and look. You are welcome to borrow anything we have that might augment your look

3) If you are planning to share your photos with someone special, they may want to see you "in person" wearing the very same outfit! ESPECIALLY for the wedding night lingerie... you want to make sure it's something you can take home with you after the shoot.

EXTREMELY important! Here's why... we will have bright light on you which can tend to wash out skin tones a bit. We compare the professional makeup to "stage makeup". The contours of your face and bone structure should be visible in photos -- even for a natural look. We promise your photos won't look "overdone".

Our stylists are also able to smooth out any fly-aways with your hair and give us the volume we really want for your shoot that stays. You may not get the results you desire by doing your own hair/makeup unless you are a professional stylist yourself, or you prefer to use your own stylist prior to arriving. We highly recommend adding this service.

For bridal sessions, we see many brides use their trial hair/makeup day for this session. And we are happy to work with you on the timeframe for that if you have your own stylist option you prefer.

If you are a little shy about revealing too much - we first want to let you know that our goal is to make you feel classy and sophisticated (not "trashy" or kitschy). We take care in making sure poses/outfits honor YOU! But, if you still don't want to do a lingeire shoot, you can use this session for a solo bridal session in your gown. It's an opportunity to get planned and specific images without the rush of a wedding day timeline. And by using stunning lighting options, we can create an intimate vibe.

We will charge you for one payment today and then another in 4 weeks. This includes your sales tax. Contact us to book your shoot on the calendar.
