MY APPROACH

Original. Stories. Fun.

Our natural smile is the best make-up we can put on. Smile with your eyes, your mouth, or even your body language. Every smile is unique and tells a story of the time it was captured.

What is your creative process working with a new customer?

To craft a beautiful session, I usually begin learning about you and the story you want to capture. We then pick a shooting location of your choice. I can also provide recommendations for you if needed. Next, we will work out a color story for the outfits that best complement the shooting location you chose.

Yes, I do! Post production of the photographs is as important as the day of shoot. Every image you receive will be edited in some shape or form to create that cohesive look of a collection.

My office is based in Torrance, California, 90504. For any photoshoots under an hour, I am willing to travel up to 10 miles radius, free of charge. Anything that falls beyond will be charged by each mile to cover the driven mileage and gasoline cost, at $2/mile.

The turnaround time for any photoshoot will be 2 weeks from your shoot day. They will be uploaded to a private, password protected gallery for you to view and share among your friends and family.

Celebration Sessions
In addition, an USB flash drive with the high resolution files will also be mailed to you as a keepsake.

Only the web resolution files are watermarked for your online usage. All the high resolution files will not be watermarked.

Upon receipt of your digital files, you will also receive a Print Release - Use License, which allows you to print and use the pictures for personal use only. As for obtaining the copyright, it means to own the creator title to the work performed. I do not sell the copyright of the images, but you will have the license and right to print and share your images for personal use as much as you like!

Mask on for me at all times! Most of the shoots will be conducted in outdoor settings, unless specified. We will maintain good social distance and follow all local laws, but you and your close ones can certainly stay as close as you’d like!
