So… how do your sessions work?”
That’s one of the most common questions I get—and honestly, it’s a good one. Because what I offer is a little different from the typical photography experience.
There are no stiff poses or forced smiles. No Pinterest-perfect pressure. Just real people, real moments, and an approach that’s designed to feel relaxed from start to finish.
If you’re looking for relaxed, authentic photography in Bellows Falls or Southern Vermont, you’re in the right place. I’ll walk you through the different types of sessions I offer, what they’re like, and how to figure out which one fits best for what you need.
Signature Candids: Space to Breathe & Capture Your Story

If you’re looking for a session that gives you room to slow down and be yourself, this is it.
My full sessions are unhurried and intentional—perfect for families, couples, individuals, or creatives who want their photos to feel like moments, not poses. We choose a meaningful location, talk through the vibe ahead of time, and keep things flexible so the session can flow naturally. Whether we meet at your home, a favorite trail, or one of the quiet corners of Southern Vermont, these sessions are all about creating space to just be.
These sessions include:
- A consultation call to plan your location and session flow
- A detailed prep guide to help you feel ready (without pressure)
- A relaxed session where I gently guide but mostly observe and capture
- A mix of web-ready and print-ready edited images
- Optional add-ons like extra time, albums, or advanced edits
- Sneak peeks within 48 hours and full gallery delivered within 2 weeks
Available in three tiers:
- Essentials – 30 minutes
- Signature – 1 hour
- Premium – 2 hours

Brand Candids: Authentic Photography for Creatives & Small Businesses

If you run a business or creative brand, you’ve probably been told you “need content”—but what you actually need are photos that feel real.
These sessions are for Vermont small business owners, artists, makers, and service providers who want to show up visually without feeling like they’re performing. No forced smiles, no awkward poses—just you, doing what you do best.
We’ll work together to create:
- Portraits that feel natural and unstaged
- Behind-the-scenes shots of your work, space, and tools
- Visual content that reflects your values—not just your services
- Sneak peeks within 48 hours and full gallery delivered within 2 weeks
Each session includes a pre-shoot planning call, web- and print-ready files, and the option to book recurring content days if you need a steady stream of fresh photos.
📦 Looking for something more specific—like product photography, events, or a customized business package? I offer additional brand-centered services too. Check out this page for more info!

Not Sure What to Book? Start Here.
Each session I offer is designed with a specific purpose in mind—but they all share one thing in common: a relaxed, real approach.
Here’s a quick way to tell which one might be the best fit:

- Signature Candids – For when you want more time, flexibility, and space to tell a fuller story

Ready to Hear About Those Discounted Sessions?
Occasionally, I offer select photo sessions at a discounted rate in exchange for a signed model release. This allows me to use a few images in my portfolio, for magazine submissions, stock libraries, or creative projects.
If you’re open to that and want to be the first to know when discounted sessions open up, join Casey's Corner above or at the bottom of this page.
If you'd like some more information before signing up, check out this page.
No pressure, no modeling experience required—you just need to be yourself.
Please note: Quick Candids are not eligible for discounts.
Here’s What I Hope You Take Away
You don’t need to be sure. You don’t need to be “photogenic.” You don’t even need to know exactly what you want.
You just need to want something that feels honest—and that’s what I’m here to help you create.
All of my sessions are designed to be flexible, supportive, and rooted in real life. Whether you're based in Bellows Falls, Brattleboro, or anywhere in Southern Vermont, I’d love to help you create images that feel honest, warm, and completely you.
