Contact

Call us to set up an appointment for a consultation at 810-908-0055.

Due to the nature of our business being largely in the field, we may not answer immediately. Leave a message and we’ll get back to you soon.

Tour and Consultation

Tour the studio and discuss ideas and locations to tell your senior story in your portraits. We take this opportunity to talk about pricing, product options and how the process works in detail. If you feel we are the photographer for you, we can schedule your shoot, managing contracts and retainer fee.

Choose Your Location

At the consultation we discuss options. You can choose pretty much anywhere, like our studio (indoors or outdoors), family home, a state park, or even a private business (with permission).

Find Your Fit

A large part of what makes an image work is the clothing. Pick what you would like to wear, based on the consultation. Then add a bit more (options). Be sure to try on clothing early to make sure it fits and doesn’t need alterations, or have any stains. It’s a great excuse for a shopping trip.

Hair and Makeup

You are welcome to do your own hair and makeup. Don’t want to? We can provide an artist upon request. This is also part of our Dream Model Experience.

BTS Magic

At this point we get to work reviewing your images and preparing them for you with a little “behind the scenes magic.”

The Reveal

Join us in the studio for the big reveal of your images on the big screen and select favorites. During the reveal we prepare your order for any wall art, prints or albums you need.

Hold and Love

After the images are fully retouched, printed at professional labs and prepared for you, we get together for a short moment at the studio. Hold your art and fall in love all over again. 

Concierge service is also available. We deliver to your home and hang the wall art for you.
