  • At our studio in downtown Santa Barbara, CA.

  • Black Friday sessions will be scheduled in January, February, or March 2026 based on studio availability (we typically shoot Monday through Thursday, often starting at 10:30am and wrapping by 1:30pm). After booking, our team will reach out to coordinate your session date and finalize all details.

  • After you complete checkout, you'll receive a confirmation email and our team will contact you to schedule your wardrobe consultation / vision call. On this call, we will also schedule in your session date and send you your photoshoot agreement to sign.

  • We understand that life happens! You may reschedule once at no cost as long as the request is made at least 14 days before your session. If you need to reschedule more than once, a $250 rescheduling fee will apply to compensate our hair and makeup team and studio for lost work.

  • I believe every woman deserves to feel like the most confident, radiant, unstoppable version of herself — and to see that reflected back in a portrait. These sessions are about more than photographs; they’re about self-expression, empowerment, and celebrating yourself exactly as you are. My mission is to create a luxury experience that helps you see your beauty the way the world sees it.

  • Whoa— let me stop you right there, beauty. I don’t believe in "photogenic." It’s my job to pose, light, and direct you so you look and feel amazing—and I’m a trained master at doing just that for women of all ages, shapes, and sizes.

  • Absolutely — and we encourage it! Just keep in mind that there are only 10 sessions available. If you want to gift this experience or have a friend join you, share this booking link right away before spots sell out.

  • We’ll help you decide! You can wear up to 4 outfits. Think casual jeans and a tee, business attire, a sundress, a glamorous cocktail dress or gown, yoga gear, or even lingerie or nothing at all. We also have a collection of studio wardrobe you can incorporate into your shoot. This is your shoot—there are no rules.

  • Absolutely! Loved ones are welcome. Additional people are $250/person to account for additional time, posing, and styling. This shoot is about your story, and if that includes others, let’s capture that!

  • Because these shoots are such a tremendous deal, we can only offer just 10 of them. These will sell out!

    Don’t miss out on being one of the 10!

    Simply complete your booking using the checkout link below. Once payment is processed, we’ll reach out within 48 hours to schedule your session date and start planning your dream shoot.
