Frequently Asked Questions

What does a portrait session include?

Every session is a bespoke experience, beginning with a personalized consultation to understand your vision. The session itself is fully guided, whether in our San Ramon studio or on location, followed by a private image reveal and ordering appointment. All artwork is purchased separately, allowing you to invest in only what you truly love.

What should I wear to my session?

We offer personalized wardrobe guidance upon request, to ensure you feel both comfortable and camera-ready. We encourage timeless, understated pieces in neutral tones—styles that reflect elegance and allow your presence to shine through.

Is professional hair and makeup included?

At this time, hair and makeup services are not included. We recommend arriving with your grooming complete and would be happy to suggest trusted local artists should you wish to arrange professional styling in advance.

How far in advance should I reserve my session?

To ensure the most seamless experience, we recommend booking 4–6 weeks in advance. Availability for Headshot Days is limited and often fills quickly—early inquiries are encouraged.

Can I include family members or business partners?

Of course. Whether you're seeking an heirloom portrait or a polished visual presence for your team, we tailor each session to your needs. Please share the number of individuals at the time of inquiry so we can craft the experience accordingly.

Where will my session take place?

Most sessions take place in our light-filled studio located in San Ramon. On-location options are available upon request and may include your home, office, or an outdoor setting that aligns with your aesthetic.
