I’m so excited to share that I’m offering five free photo sessions this spring for folks in Southern Vermont—two for small businesses, and three for everyday life moments with families, couples, or individuals. This isn’t just about giving something away. It’s about building something.
Over the past few months, I’ve been quietly shifting my focus as a photographer. I’ve always loved honest, unposed images—but now I’m leaning all the way in. My work is about real life, real connection, and all the moments we usually forget to take photos of.
Why This Giveaway Exists
To grow this part of my work, I need two things:
✨ A new portfolio that reflects the heart of what I do
✨ Connection with the people I most want to serve
That’s what this giveaway is about.
I want to photograph local business owners doing what they do best. I want to capture families on their own terms—not just dressed up and smiling at the camera, but laughing in the kitchen or walking through the woods. I want to make images that feel like you—not just what you look like, but how it feels to live your life.
What I’m Asking, and Why
In the entry form, you’ll see two questions:
“What’s a favorite pastime, hobby, or weekend ritual you’d love to be photographed doing?”
and
“Where would you love your session to take place?”
I ask these because I want to photograph you in your element. Not a styled version. Not a Pinterest-perfect version. Just the real stuff: the way your kid holds your hand, the quiet way you work, the joy you feel baking on Sunday, hiking with your partner, or fixing bikes in your garage.
The second question—about location—is to help me discover new local spots for upcoming mini sessions. If you’ve got a favorite trail, farm, or hidden gem, I’d love to hear about it.
Who Can Enter
- Small businesses (artists, shop owners, service providers—if it’s your thing, it counts)
- Families (any kind of family, all kinds welcome)
- Couples (romantic or platonic!)
