Your Portrait Session Experience

My goal is to provide you with a super fun experience, and amazing artwork to enjoy forever. Here’s how it works!

Before the Portrait Session

Let’s start talking about how you want your photos to look. What should you wear? Should you have your hair and makeup professionally done? What kinds of styles and themes would you like to convey? We’ll plan out your shoot, and I’ll show you all the gorgeous printed artwork that your photos will be turned into! We can chat over email, phone, zoom, or in person. Whatever your schedule allows. 🙂

The Portrait Session Day!

We’ve planned your style, what to wear, and came up with some great ideas. So now it’s time to make it all happen! You’ll come in to my studio in Chicago, have your hair and makeup done, and we’ll help you style your wardrobe. I will coach and guide you through a super fun photo session experience. I’ll help you with how to look your best, and coach you through natural poses. It’s going to be a ton of fun!

Guided Art Experience

After your photos are ready, I’d love for you to come back into the studio to see everything (or we can do a zoom chat if you prefer). This is where you get to see the fabulous results of the photo session! I will help you choose your favorite photos, and decide what kind of printed artwork we’ll make from them.

About the Guided Art Experience

Victoria will guide you through the images, help you choose favorites, and curate a gorgeous printed collection with you! You’ll choose from our collection of gorgeous museum quality wall art, fine art prints, and beautiful archival quality albums.

We live in an age where we have thousands of photos stored on our phones, and we view them occasionally on their little screens. There is something so fulfilling about having your favorite images printed beautifully in a book or on your wall, where you get to enjoy them every day. Photos are a reminder of who we are, who we love, and the moments we’ve created. They should be enjoyed every day, not stuck on a computer or phone!

Ok…this is really exciting…

With all of our Photography Collections, the full dollar amount you spend on your session fee goes toward the purchase of wall art, prints, and albums! This Guided Art Experience is curated with you by Victoria, your Artist.

Albums start at $1500, Wall Art starts at $900, Print Display Boxes start at $1500, individual professional quality prints up to 8×12″ are $100 each, and Custom Framing starts at $450. Wondering about digital files? You will receive the matching high resolution, large size digital file for any image you include in your artwork order. “Starting” prices are the smallest sizes, and go up in price from there. Some clients spend $500, some spend $5,000. It’s all up to you, and you buy only what you love. There are no minimums or maximums. I will walk you through everything, and help you curate a custom collection!

Contact me to book your session! I’m also happy to jump on the phone or zoom to chat more!
