The VIBE GUIDE:

Step 01
01. Location

If you know anything about me, you know I’m obsessed with places that feel alive — ocean waves, mountain air, open fields, moody forests, downtown alleys glowing at sunset. Whether it’s a hidden trail in Georgia, a misty overlook in the PNW, or a quiet coffee shop that means something to you — that’s where the magic happens.
It’s never just about the view. It’s about the story that view tells. Pick somewhere that feels like you — the two of you, your energy, your rhythm.

Step 02
02. Decoration

This one’s huge. Your clothes are your visual soundtrack. I always say wear something you can move, laugh, and breathe in — earthy tones, textures, layers, movement. Think flowy fabrics, cozy knits, or something that catches the wind just right. Forget what’s trendy; go with what feels authentic. If you’re unsure, I’ll help you pick — I’ve styled hundreds of sessions and know exactly what works against light, nature, and chaos. Go bold. Be soft. Be you.

Step 03
03. Timing

Timing is everything.
The best light usually happens right before sunset or right after sunrise — that soft, golden glow that turns everything into magic. But honestly? The feeling matters more than the clock. If your story happens in the rain, in the fog, or under streetlights, we roll with it. Every kind of light tells a story — we’ll find yours.
