I DON'T JUST PHOTOGRAPH HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS
REAL PORTRAITS FOR REAL PEOPLE. NO MILESTONE REQUIRED.
"I'd love photos of myself... but there's no special reason."
Here's the truth: You don't need a holiday, milestone, or "special occasion" to justify booking a session. You also don't need to dress differently or be someone you're not to deserve great photos of yourself.
RAW portraits are for anyone, any age, any stage of life - when you just want to exist in front of the camera as yourself.
I thought I'd hate every photo
“I thought I’d hate every photo. I’m not the kind of guy who likes being in front of a camera.
But these portraits feel like me - no pretending, no posing. Just the real me.”

AS I AM PORTRAIT SESSIONS - Real Portraits for Real People
THIS IS YOUR PERMISSION SLIP TO SHOW UP AS YOU ARE.
Because if you believe you're too (insert your excuse here) to be photographed, that story is affecting other parts of your life too.
No professional hair needed
No professional makeup needed
No new clothing needed
Just come as you are.
All black and white for added awesomeness!
no "normal"
A portrait experience designed to bring out the real you!
The Experience Includes
• A prep guide to help you feel ready (without overthinking)
• A 2-hour black-and-white portrait experience
• 3 looks and 2 backdrops (light + dark)
• Posing direction - because confidence looks different on everyone
• Immediate image reveal after your session
You’ll come in, we’ll talk, laugh, photograph, and you’ll see your images right after. It’s real, it’s simple, and it’s often emotional in the best way.
Say Yes to Yourself
Investing in yourself is radical. It's permission to take up space. Permission to be seen as you are.
I’ve avoided being in photos for years
“I’ve avoided being in photos for years. I always had an excuse - I’d lose a little weight, buy new clothes, wait until I felt better about myself. But this session wasn’t about fixing anything. It was the first time I walked into a room and didn’t feel like I had to perform.
Danielle didn’t ask me to smile or pose - she just let me be. And when I saw the photos, I actually teared up because I recognized myself. Not the version I try to be… the real one and I LOVED her.
Every woman needs to experience this.”

No. You’ll be the first one to see your photos (usually immediately after we shoot!) and if you want to keep it that way, I respect your decision. This is for YOU, and your comfort is my number one priority (well, once you step out of your comfort zone to work with me!)

What do people do with their portraits?
They keep an album to remind them how awesome they are. They put a stunning portrait on their wall so they can walk past it every day and remember how amazing they felt when they chose to love themselves. They update their social media profiles with authentic imagery that’s the opposite of AI in the best possible way.
