YOU DON’T NEED A REASON TO BE PHOTOGRAPHED

But maybe this can be the reason:

You’re alive. You’re changing!

Have no idea what the hell you’re doing? Great.

You’re in the right place.

My process is intuitive, fluid and direct. I create a container where you can take your time and remember how to be a person in front of the camera. I’ll be guiding you the whole way.

Everything you’ll need to know to get started is on this page. When you’re ready to dive in, scroll to the bottom and fill out the form.

I’ll meet you on the other side!

TIME IS AN ILLUSION!

I don't time my shoots. This is play ! We're not racing a clock or rushing to the next thing, and there's no hard out. If it helps to have a sense of the container, sessions tend to run around two hours, but if we need more space, we'll take it.

‍YOU GET THE GOOD STUFF

You'll receive 20 finished photographs in an online gallery, each thoughtfully retouched and color graded. I edit with a strong point of view. Expect a beautiful bouquet of images to share with the people you love, or simply keep for yourself.

OPEN YOUR HEART, OPEN YOUR WALLET!

An individual portrait session is $650 Payment plans are available for anyone who needs one, no questions asked, just say the word. Whether this is for business or pleasure, you're investing in yourself, and I take that seriously. In exchange, you get everything I've got.

‍WANT MORE? SAY MORE!

Your session is fully customizable, so speak up and tell me your dreams! Second location? Wardrobe change or three? A morning in the daylight studio? Tell me what you're picturing and we'll make it happen. Extras get quoted upfront, so the only surprises are the good ones.

Group Sessions begin at $800. Read about couple and family sessions here.

If you plan to use your image for print, PR, an author photo, an album cover, or advertising, additional usage and licensing fees may apply. For commercial rates or questions regarding usage  send me an email at joy@trulyspectacular.world or fill out the form below to get in touch!

WE’LL TALK FACE TO FACE

Your session includes a one-hour virtual coffee date. Bring a smile and something fun to sip on. We'll meet over Zoom or FaceTime, get to know each other a little, and talk about what we want to make. I'll walk you through what to expect and ask a few questions of my own. We'll settle the WHAT, WHERE and HOW of it all, so by the time we meet IRL we can jump right in.

YOU HAVE PERMISSION TO NOT HAVE A CLUE ABOUT WHAT YOU ARE DOING

Welcome to the club. I specialize in working with people who have no idea what to do with their hands, and I'll guide you the whole way.

Want to go deeper? If you love a deep dive and you're looking for an embodied experience to expand your mind, explore your ideas, and find more freedom in being seen, The Embodied Portrait Session might be for you.

GOOD THINGS TAKE TIME

and I take my time with yours. Your finished gallery arrives within 4 weeks of your session. Need it sooner? Let's chat. Rush delivery is available for an additional fee.

Things I DON'T do:

  • Sneak previews

  • Alter body size or shape

  • Over-retouch skin

Things I DO do:

  • Invite you into presence

  • Take my time with your edit

  • Help you look like you

YOU HAVE PERMISSION TO LISTEN TO YOUR BODY

You know yourself better than anyone. My job is to ask the right questions and get you to the answers you already have, about everything from what you want these photographs to feel like down to wardrobe, hair, and makeup. We'll cover it all on our coffee date. If you'd like more hands-on guidance and a real space to unravel, that's exactly what The Embodied Portrait Session is for.

WHY NOW?

What feels most important about being photographed right now? Take some time with that question. Why does choosing to be seen in this way matter to you, at this point in your life? What an exciting choice to make. You'll walk into our session carrying those intentions, and they'll be our guiding force.

p.s. there are no wrong answers ;)
