Private Walk & Shoot Experience

$1800 ALL-INCLUSIVE lifestyle portrait SESSION experience


The Private Walk & Shoot Experience is a slower, more immersive way to be photographed. As a fourth-generation Santa Barbara local, I’ll guide you through some of my favorite trails, meadows, or coastal paths while documenting your family as you explore together.


This experience is movement-based and unhurried. Whether you’re walking beneath oak trees, feeling the ocean breeze, or letting kids roam freely, the focus is on connection and presence. There’s very little posing and plenty of room to simply be together, allowing moments to unfold naturally in beautiful light.


What’s included

• Up to two hours with your immediate family

• A minimum of 100 hand-edited images in both color and black & white

• A private online gallery for viewing, downloading, and sharing

• A complimentary luxury photo album designed by me and delivered to your home


Optional add ons

CINEMATIC FAMILY FILM $700

A thoughtfully edited film that captures movement, emotion, and the feeling of your time together


EXPEDITED GALLERY DELIVERY $250

Your full gallery delivered within one week, plus a small set of sneak peeks within 48 hours

Cinematic Films

When you book a session with me, you have the option to add on a 2-3 minute cinematic film with music. It's a way to encapsulate a small yet meaningful slice of time, documented in a way that will endure for generations to come.
