PORTRAIT + LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY
\
Wahoo, Nebraska
Modern portraiture with a vintage vibe.
What if you had your portrait taken and actually liked ... or (dare I say) loved the way you look?
It doesn't have to be a rare unicorn moment.
IF NOT NOW, WHEN?
and psst... it's actually not a photoshoot. it's a party.
Bottomline: I want to take the best damn photographs you've ever seen of yourself. Period.
REAL WORDS FROM REAL PEOPLE
I HATE having my picture taken and I got legit hives because I was so nervous. But with Stacy’s energy and amazing direction I was able to relax within MINUTES and I felt so confident that she captured great shots of me. And I didn’t have to wait long- she does same day image selection which was so efficient. I now have a folder on my desktop with all my images to pull from when needed. Thanks Stacy!

the experience...
I. Consultation.
This is when we design your session! We talk everything - the who, the where, the when, the why. I shoot with purpose so it's important to start with the end in mind. Done in person or via zoom or FaceTime (I like to see your face! I'm a people person... I know, shocker.)
II. Take photos.
You enter my studio welcomed with warm smiles and a cocktails, if you like. Professional hair & make up - however you want to look that day from natural to super glam. I direct you through the entire shoot (and you'll always know what to do with your hands).
III. Image Selection.
When we're all done shooting, we look at your images together.
Only buy what you love.
we have the power to freeze time.

Allow myself to introduce myself...
I work differently than most other photographers, specializing in printed work. I coach you through every single step of the way to completely take the guess work out - from clothing selection to final image decisions. Most of the time we do same-day image selection so you leave the studio feeling confident that we captured you and all of you '-ness' and are left with nothing but feelings of joy ....getting exactly what you wanted.
Stress is not involved, but drinks usually are!

Stacy is incredibly talented and a pleasure to work with. She is super charismatic and makes an otherwise awkward situation (me smiling) a very fun and enjoyable experience. I would definitely recommend her for everything photography, and I look forward to working with her again soon!

headshots + branding
Do you sell digital images?
You betcha! For portrait clients, anything I print for you includes the matching digital images. If you need images for your business, I offer digital -only packages.
When's the best time to book my shoot?
Whenever you're ready. I will say, however, getting yourself ready for a photo shoot does take some time to prepare. And typically I book 2-3 months out, anyways, as a heads up. I am there for you every step of the way to give you the best portrait experience.
What if I want to lose 10 pounds first?
I understand completely. You may not like the way you feel right now, but you still have to be seen in the world. Know that you are perfectly you as you are TODAY. Trust being photographed by a professional. I have 20+ years experience posing people to find the poses that suit everyone’s unique body type. I’ll also coach you on what to wear to make sure we have the right shapes happening.
How do I get ready for my shoot?
I got you! A couple of weeks before your scheduled shoot, we’ll connect for a pre-shoot style consultation either in person or via FaceTime in your closet to discuss wardrobe options. Hair and make-up is included to make it stress-free for you. Just be sure to get your salon appointments scheduled for hair color/nails/waxing, etc… before your session.
What if we JUST want digitals?
I get it! We live in a digital world and posting our digital photos on Facebook and Instagram is the norm. But after we post our pics and get all the likes, what are we left with? If you're just looking for a quick McDonalds experience and truly take the time to DIY prints, there are so many talented photographs out there who will do exactly what you think you want. If you want to do something different and leave a legacy for your children, hire me! You'll get both: a full service experience, beautiful, high quality prints PLUS the matching digital image. If you need images for your business, digital-only packages are available.
How much is this going to cost?
What you spend is entirely up to you. Only buy what you love. Some people spend $500 and others spend $5000. A full pricing menu will be provided before booking to make sure you're making the right investment for you.
What if I’m not photogenic?
Good news! My favorite thing is to photograph people who think I have my work cut out for me! Challenge = accepted. And you’re not alone. Most people feel nervous at first and awkward in front of the camera. But trust that you’re in good hands and I’ll guide and direct you from start to finish.
Can I bring a friend or my pet?
Absolutely. We'll discuss that ahead of time at your pre-shoot consultation to make sure we plan for it.
