I am focusing on connection and stop time in its tracks for you to look back to remember how meaningful it was. My approach is to leave clients excited for the finished gallery and eager for the next time I get to see them. Whether it's a couple, a mother with her child, families bonding, your images will be personal and heartfelt.
Editorial meets Lifestyle:
While many of the shots feel candid and spontaneous, the styling, posing, and composition show a strong eye for aesthetics and detail. Editorial photography with feelings of real and relatable.
I've been photographing love, laughter, special connections and everything in between for six years. Every session is special to me and my goal is to capture your story as it unfolds making it one of a kind each one is not the same.
I am a passionate, fun loving, and caring person who had turned the love for photographing into my own business shortly after becoming a mom, military wife while newly moving to Alaska. My husband is my high school sweetheart whom keeps me grounded and stays true to myself. Fast forward to this day we have two lovely children and three fur babies.
Submit your inquiry through the contact page on the website. You will receive an email within 48 hours with my packages which you will choose from. The next step we will chat about all the details / answer any questions you may have or you can have the option for a phone consultation.
When you are ready to lock in your session in my calendar, I will send you an all in one booking information email that includes details about the session, payment schedule, contract & questionnaire for you to fill out. To officially book your session, 35% retainer & signed contract MUST be completed! ** Remaining balance is due 2 days before your session date.
Once these items are completed, we go over locations based on how you envision the session for you!
It'S SESSION DAY!! One or two days before, you will get information on the exact location along with some tips for your session. Once we begin your session, get ready for the best time full of never ending laughter and good times. Lots of movements and enjoy the scenery to make moments feel very in the now not posed.
I cull ( meaning I select the best images ), apply a general light edit of your gallery of how they will look like. From that point, they will be uploaded in to a watermarked online gallery from where you will choose ( heart ) every image you'd like to have from your session. If the number selected is more than the package includes, you'll receive an invoice for the extra images, payment plans are available. Once images are selected within 48 hours, I will begin the final edits for you!
The final gallery will be delivered to you within 4 weeks. Once you receive the gallery in your email, you will be able to download the images & share with family / friends!
I have worked with Monica several times now. Not only i she extremely talented at her craft but she's incredibly welcoming and genuine. Each time I see Monica it feels as if we've been friends forever. She's great with kids and family portraits and good at individual shoots as well. Monica is great at directing and posing you so that you're in the best lighting and angles. Her results feel timeless, real, and almost dreamy. Book with Monica! You will not be disappointed!
