My highest priority is the safety and well-being of both my clients and my entire team. To that end I am instituting a few changes to how I do photo shoots that will ensure everyone has a wonderful experience.

Please read below for changes and don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions at all. I promise to do everything I can to keep everyone has the best possible experience!

in-studio

In-studio sessions will now be scheduled three days apart to ensure that surfaces are completely clean when my next client walks through the door.

We ask that you wear a mask when entering and exiting the building. My stylist and I will both wear masks throughout the session.

Our stylist will be there to do your hair, but unfortunately we won't be able to do your makeup for the forseeable future. To that end I created a comprehensive digital magazine to walk clients through makeup for photography.

All consultations and review sessions will now take place on Zoom (or other video app) in order to ensure three days between in-studio clients.

what about

Unfortunately there is no way to do makeup application while wearing a facemask, so we will not be able to offer this service for awhile. In the meantime I created a brand new makeup guide to walk you through the process of doing your own makeup for your session! Best of all- it's yours to keep after the session!!

During on-location photo shoots, Karissa will have a face mask on the entire time. During in-studio sessions, our team will wear masks and clients will be asked to wear a face mask while in close contact with others (while having their hair done, for example).

Francine creates beautiful interior designs, and also designs some of the textiles and fabrics she uses! In addition to her beautiful designs she creates beautiful watercolors in her home studio.

LifeThyme Market in New York City is an incredible shop full of beautiful, organic, and carefully sourced foods. Their juice bar is second to none- with the "mixologist" serving as more of a bartender than a juicer. Stop by when you're in the area!
