Our Process

We take a full-service approach to portrait and lifestyle sessions. We offer on-location and studio sessions throughout the Denver Front Range area and the mountains west of Denver. Portraits are sold individually and there's no minimum purchase obligation. You simply buy what you love. I'm not a volume photographer. I focus on personal attention and quality. I book a limited number of sessions annually and these go fast. 

IN-HOME STYLE AND PLANNING APPOINTMENT

Your session includes a style and planning appointment. During this meeting, Lisa will learn about the people in the photos and their personalities. It’s important the photographer understands the family nuances and how everyone in the photo session will interact.  

In this meeting, we’ll answer every question you may have, including:  

  • What types of clothing photograph best.
  • Options to add professional hair and makeup.
  • The most suitable areas of your home for the portraits from the session.
  • Discuss and identify the session location.
  • Select a date for the session.
  • Do you have specific props or a theme in mind?  
  • You'll see photo product options and their pricing.
  • Determine what wall art or other photo products you may want.  
  • Do you want to create a gallery wall or fill in an existing gallery wall?
  • Where do you want to hang portraits from the session?
  • Do you prefer standing framed portraits to display on a sofa table? 

The Photo Session

Sessions are offered in-studio or on-location and last anywhere from 30 minutes to 3-4 hours depending on the session you've purchased, the size of the group and the session goals. You may also do a wardrobe change to create different looks.

The Image Reveal & Ordering Appointment

Your image reveal and ordering appointment will be scheduled 2-3 weeks after your photo session. This is the time set aside to finalize your portrait order, so be sure and schedule a time when key decision makers can be there. 

At this appointment, you'll see about 15 - 50 of the best images from the session, already retouched and edited for your eyes. We’ll view the images one by one and you’ll select your favorites. Then, you’ll select the images you want to go into an album, matted prints, or framed wall art. 

The Delivery

Portrait orders are ready in about 4 weeks and are hand-delivered to ensure your satisfaction. We make it convenient for you and will arrange to meet you at your home or office at a time of your choice. We can also assist you with hanging the art.
