The Parts You're Dreading
Handled for You
What to wear
After you book, you'll get my wardrobe and planning guide by email, and I'll build a mood board for your session. You can text me questions anytime.
Hair and makeup
Your session starts with hair and makeup by Tracy Biggers, right here in the studio. Then I guide every pose and expression. You don't need to know how to model.
Posing
I guide every pose. No experience needed. You just show up, and I'll tell you where to look, what to do with your hands, and how to angle your body.
Your finished photos
Every image you choose gets my master retouching, with skin, light, and color refined by hand and never overdone. Your finished images are delivered within 4 weeks.
Kind Words from Clients
Sarah
I needed brand photos for my coaching business and had no idea where to start. Elisa made it feel easy. She asked about my work and who I'm trying to reach, and somehow the photos came out looking exactly like me on a good day. I've used them everywhere.
Megan
I've dreaded having my headshot taken for years. Elisa talked me through it the whole way and somehow made it fun. The final photos look polished but still like me, which is exactly what I wanted for LinkedIn.
Danielle
I booked a boudoir session for my fortieth and was nervous the entire drive there. By the time hair and makeup were done I'd relaxed, and Elisa guided every single pose. I cried when I saw the photos. I look at them and feel proud.
The Bennett Family
Elisa photographed our family for years before she moved into portraits. She has a way of catching the real moments instead of stiff poses. Those photos are all over our house now.
Meet Elisa
Hi, I'm Elisa
I've been behind the camera for more than twenty years. I'm a wife to Tim, a mom of five, and a believer. My studio is a quiet, private space out in the country where nobody is rushed.
