Soulful Portraiture focuses on capturing the true essence of a person. When I photograph a client for a Soulful Portraiture session, I focus on tuning into their personal story, like a composer becoming very still and quiet to hear the music as it appears. First in the air, then on a page, then on stage. I look at you, music in human form, and I listen to the lyrics only your soul, body, mind, heart can bring to life. I turn you slightly this way or that to find the light, so that every feature is illuminated, in a glow that is uniquely you. Just as you start to narrate your story, I am here with my camera, bearing witness to the song only you can sing. 

You have a story. Let’s bring it to light. 

soulful portraiture

In my Soulful Portrait sessions we go deep. We begin by engaging in a conversation about your intention. As much as you’d like to share, as deep as you’d like to dig into your intention, I am open, available and eager to discover all that lies in the treasure chest of you. We then delve into creating an inspiration board to assist us in developing and landing on an aligned vision, a soft guide that will point us down the same path. We talk about comfort and vulnerability, collaboration and co-creation, crafting a plan to achieve the images you desire while simultaneously nurturing your soul. On the day of the shoot, I show up fully present, prepared, and we take all the time that we need to capture the shots while caring for you along the way. Maybe we pause for a walk, maybe we get a little lost on the trail while being lost in conversation, or pop a bottle of bubbles and stop to chat on the kitchen floor. The day is yours, and you are encouraged to dedicate those hours to yourself. When the shoot is complete I pour myself into editing, then you are delivered a gallery of unique, intentional, soulful imagery. Photos that capture your essence and tell a story of you and your beautiful, treasured life.
