I love to travel NC statewide, nationally and internationally!  By appointment only, the In God's Image studio is located in Raleigh, NC at:

I love capturing with purpose! There's nothing wrong with just a pretty picture but when my clients invest in my passion, I want them secure in knowing that their portraits will bring happy memories, their executive headshots will help connect with their audience and their wedding capture will reignite their love every time they view them.  My style is aligning with your vision for capture and carrying out that vision with the tools (your attire, makeup, props, etc.) you provide partnered with my love for what I do.  Let's make magic!

Most people don't feel photogenic.  No worries, we will have fun posing under my coaching and direction for your session.  It's important to know that when you're having a great time, the camera can tell so you'll have to contribute good energy with an open mind and we will have a blast!

The short answer with 2 letters is no.  You don't "need" makeup.  The long answer with 3 letters is yes, you "need" makeup for a polished look for your portraits.  I recommend makeup for every important portrait you invest in - for life.  That's not to say you have to be hosed down, slathered and concrete baked in makeup, unrecognizable to yourself, your phone face recognition, your pets and others, however, full face application makeup artistry is tastefully served only to contribute to your beauty; never needing to create it.

YES.  I do not release unedited portraits.  Retouching includes blemish removal, skin smoothing and light, minor stray hair adjustments, contrast and highlight corrections.  These edits only contribute to a polished portrait.  Full body contouring, face contouring or major hair adjustments are additional and $15.00 per image. If you have a preference for a specific color background, it is imperative your outfit is capture on that background as I do not make background adjustments. Re-edits after you've made your initial confirmation are $100.00. Should you select a portrait you no longer want, you are welcome to purchase another option at $10. each.

That's such great news!  I'm ready to serve you!  Visit the reservation page to book your date and time with details for your reservation service.  I'll respond with your confirmation and we will make magic.  I'll see you soon!

If you are more than 15 minutes late for your session/artistry, you may have to reschedule and there is a $20.00 fee.  If you select to continue with your session, your delay of time will be deducted from your session and the fee still applies. If you are more than 30 minutes late for our time together, there is a $30.00 fee. At 45 minutes late, your session is cancelled without refund. 

Life happens when we are making plans.  If you need to reschedule your session, the first time is at no cost to you.  Canceling your session the same day is a $25 fee. Rescheduling further is a $50.00 fee the second time, $100 fee the third time and your services are cancelled without refund at a 4th request to reschedule.  If you're unable to use your session within a calendar year, you are welcome to gift it to be used before expiration.

This is such a hot topic!  Please arrive for your session with your hair camera ready.  I am not a stylist but I can refer you to one.  If your hair is untidy, it will reflect in your portraits. Retouching is not applied to hair so please arrive with the way you would like it to be photographed.

Whoa! Whoa!! Sally!!  I know you're ready to receive your portraits.  Turn around is up to 2 weeks from the date your selections are received from a session and up to 4 weeks for wedding/event capture.  You will receive selections within 48 hours of the end of your session.  Should you select more portraits OVER your initial order, retouching may take longer. I work in the order served with a rush order option available (seasonal) if you need your portraits within a week from your selections received date.  That rush investment is $100.00 (if available).  Holidays will affect your turnaround time and you'll be notified of the eta.
