Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about your photography experience
Before The Session
Oklahoma weather is a wild card, but every season has its own vibe. Spring brings green grass and blooming flowers, though we have to dodge the wind and rain. Summer offers golden sunsets and warm evenings (we might sweat, but I’ll make it look good). Fall is the crowd favorite with crisp air and colorful leaves, though the peak window is short (mid-Oct to mid-Nov). Winter is moody and cozy—think coats, coffee, and stark landscapes. My Pick: Late Fall and early Summer are hard to beat for that signature golden-hour glow.
My philosophy is simple: wear what makes you feel like YOU. If you are uncomfortable, it will show in the photos. I recommend neutral, earth tones (creams, tans, greens, blues) as they photograph beautifully and don’t distract from your faces. Avoid giant logos or neon colors. Feel free to text me photos of your outfits beforehand—I’m happy to help you style the shoot!
I promise you, everyone feels this way. Because of my background as a pro athlete, I know exactly what it feels like to be the subject. My job isn’t just to click a button; it’s to direct you. I won’t leave you hanging. I’ll give you prompts, make you laugh, and guide you into natural movements so we capture real moments, not stiff poses.
Yes. A thousand times, yes. Pets are part of the family. Just bring some treats and a leash, and let’s make it happen.
The Day Of
I have a list of favorite spots around Tulsa and the surrounding areas—ranging from urban downtown vibes to open fields and nature trails. However, if you have a specific spot that is special to you (family land, a favorite coffee shop, or a local park), let me know! I’m happy to shoot anywhere that fits your story.
I watch the Oklahoma radar like a hawk. If it looks like a washout (heavy rain or dangerous storms), we will reschedule. But don’t be afraid of clouds or wind! Overcast days create beautiful, soft light, and wind adds movement and drama to your photos.
Life happens. If you or a family member wakes up sick, please let me know as soon as possible. I build wiggle room into my calendar so we can reschedule your session to a date when everyone is feeling their best.
After The Session
I know you’re excited to see them! I always try to post a “sneak peek” on social media within 48 hours of our session. For the full gallery, my standard turnaround time is 1–2 weeks (Depending on the session type).
No need to come back in for a sales meeting. I deliver everything via a beautiful, private online gallery. You will receive a link via email where you can view your photos, share them with family, and download the high-resolution files directly to your phone or computer.
Yes! I am a huge believer in the timeless, tangible feel of analog film. You can add a roll of 35mm film (black-and-white or color) to any portrait session. It adds a nostalgic, authentic texture that digital just can’t replicate.
Every photo you receive gets my signature edit for color, exposure, and tone. I keep things looking natural and authentic—I don’t do heavy body alteration, but I will make sure the lighting and colors look incredible while ensuring you still look like yourself.
