The Process

You will know what happens at every stage.

Four steps, from the first call to a gallery you can publish straight from.

Step OneDiscovery Call

A short call to talk through what you need, where the photos are going to live, and what you would rather avoid in front of a camera.

Step TwoMoodboard & Shot List

You approve the look and the shot list before the day, so there are no surprises and no guessing on set. Included with a Content Day or Monthly Retainer.

Step ThreeShoot Day

On a content day you keep working and I stay out of the way, stepping in only where direction helps. A portrait session is the opposite — I direct you throughout.

Step FourYour Gallery

Fully edited and sorted by where each photo is going, sized and ready to post.

The planning is most of the work.

A good shoot is decided before anyone arrives. By the time I am in your space, every shot already has a job.

On the day

You keep working. I keep out of the way.

The best frames happen when you forget I am there. That is the entire technique, and it takes a lot of restraint.

Delivered sorted, not dumped.

01

Edited to a Look

Consistent color and grain across the whole set, so your feed reads as one brand rather than nine different days.

02

Sorted by Placement

Folders named for where they go — grid, Reels, website, press, email. No guessing which crop is which.

03

Yours to Keep

High resolution downloads plus web-sized versions, in a private gallery that stays live for twelve months.
