I am excited for your story session! Your session is really all about celebrating your love and life together. It is an opportunity to capture moments that tell your story, embrace individuality, showcase creativity, and illustrate the love you share.
My story sessions are both laid back and fully produced with a spirit of collaboration between us. I want to create an environment where you can relax, have fun and be your authentic selves! All of us having a great time will result in raw moments creatively captured that express the depth and unique qualities of your love story.
The timeless nature of the artwork from your memories together allows these photo to be valued for a lifetime and for generations to come.
We will joke around, we will laugh, we will dance, we will cry. We will experience all the feels and take all the amazing photos.
“James is so fun and professional. I love his tactics to get the perfect shot! I recommend him to anyone that will listen.”
“James had a great understanding of exactly what I was looking for the style and feel I wanted for my engagement photos. He is so lively and fun to work with. He gets genuinely EXCITED about his work and his energy is so contagious.”
“James blew us away with his work. As a fellow photographer, I am sooo picky. He not only captured something so special for us perfectly, (our 5 year anniversary photos) and he exceeded our expectations. ”
“This is our second time working with James and I thought we couldn’t be any happier than the first time. I was totally wrong! ”
“James is exceptional to work with! He is so professional yet so much fun! He made me and my fiancé feel comfortable and even captured the crazy things we wanted!”
“James made us feel so comfortable and confident and I would highly recommend him!!”
We will start our journey with an awkward first date! We will get coffee and get to know each other. I don’t like having my picture taken by some stranger and neither do my couples!
I want to know how you two met, what you two do for work, your favorite shows on Netflix, and your favorite memes!
This is also when we establish the perfect date to have your session!!
Once we select date and a general direction for your session, we can then forward and book your session. The Story Session price is $1,500. A signed contract as well as a 50% retainer fee is required to reserve your story session placement.
Once your story session placement is official, we schedule our first session planning meeting. Our session planning meetings is when we get granular and collaborate to create a common vision. We will make our final decisions on location, timeline, styling, snacks, etc. It is important to create the blueprint for your story session together!
Don’t worry, before any decisions get made we will go over comprehensive guides on selecting your location, styling. We’ll even go over all of my preferred vendors for hair and makeup if needed!
Once on location, that’s when the magic happens. I will use a combination of the natural light, a beautiful location, and your unique love story to craft artwork that will last forever.
“James is uh-maz-ing!! He’s seriously so much fun, and he made me feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We danced, laughed, and explored together! He really pays attention to detail.”
