As a stylist and photographer, I provide the art direction to make your vision happen–be it in bridal, fashion, lifestyle, or boudoir.
Depending on your personality and place in life, your shoot might recall postcards from Hawaii in the 1960s, a peek into your bridal suite, or a peaceful sunrise beach walk.
You'll be treated to makeup, hair, and wardrobe styling, followed by your own professional photo shoot in a beautiful location. I'll provide guidance on posing and help you relax into the session.
You'll leave feeling and looking your best self. Ready for a perfect day in paradise.
Two weeks later your photos arrive– proof that it wasn't a dream. Displayed on your wall or coffee table, they provide artful, daily confidence boosts.
Do you swoon over gorgeous photos in magazines? Yet the best portrait of yourself is your business headshot or one cropped out of a family picture? What if it was your turn and Emma created a one-of-a-kind experience just for you?
Here are four things no one says out loud when they see these images, but thinks. Click to see my perspective on them. And then see what past clients have said.
1. These look beautiful, but I would feel like the process would make me feel superficial or overly ‘sexy’ and that’s not me.
Have you ever seen a luminous, inspiring photo of a woman wearing a gorgeous dress or intimate wear and thought “That is just beautiful” – and didn’t think it was overly sexy or indulgent? My approach is not to mold you to a specific look. I create a concept and setting for you, so you can feel how you want to feel: down-to-earth and organic, glamorous and dazzling, and anything in-between.
2. None of the women in these photos look like what I would look like.
Every woman in these images had that run through her mind, too. Even the models! Translating your beauty from real life into two-dimensional images is my passion and skill. I can find your grace, elegance, and beauty, and express them on film. I can do that just as you are, right now, because you are beautiful just as you are, right now.
3. But I have stretch marks/need to change something about myself first.
Skilled photographers don't need to wait for some idealized-version of you. They can work with you at any time, including now, because they understand and can make your beauty shine. In fact, a good stylist and photographer can achieve more with camera-angles, posing, and fashion props than dieting and beauty treatments can in months. I know the tips and tricks of the trade, and I have worked with women of all shapes and sizes, spanning 22 nationalities and the ages 18-68. We can have a discreet, honest conversation about any concerns you have, and your images will emphasize and increase your confidence. You can come as you are, and leave looking and feeling amazing.
4. I'm not good in front of a camera. What if I look and feel ridiculous? I would be too embarrassed to do a shoot.
Most people feel a little shy at first. Who doesn’t when you try something new? But about fifteen minutes into a session, without fail, people find their rhythm. By the end, women feel empowered and connected to a deep part of themselves. No one has ever left a shoot regretting it, and most tell me they felt their confidence shift permanently afterward.
When I got the photos from my bridal boudoir shoot, I was excited and nervous at the same time, I didn't know whether they would look good, whether I looked good in them - well, they were absolutely 'stunning'! I can't believe how beautiful the photos are and I just know that my future husband will love them!

Emma created the perfect shoot that truly felt right for me. My favorite moment was when I was wearing that gorgeous and sensual dress close to the Seine in the street of Paris. I was feeling proud in such a romantic place. I was feeling very good.

It felt like I had known Emma for years because she made me feel so comfortable. She gave amazing direction (when to turn, where to look, etc) and eased me into the "boudoir" photos over the course of our session. I'm so happy with how the photos turned out; they are still my favorite to this day!

I feel as though I should perhaps have a more poetic way to put this, but I felt like a mermaid, a siren emerging from the waves, a goddess. The lighting, the lingerie, the location...it was all perfect. A completely one-of-a-kind experience that Emma had put together just for me.
I love that Emma was willing to work with my vision and even gave great input and more ideas that made the photos even better than I had envisioned them to be. She found a little-known bed and breakfast with it's charming character, natural light, lace curtains and vintage style. This is exactly the kind of back drop I was looking for!
