The Sculpture Session

A Limited Edition fine art portrait ·

November 6 to 8, 2026 · Falmouth, Maine

For thousands of years, artists have carved people in marble, draped them in cloth, and lit them softly enough to be looked at for centuries. This session borrows from that tradition.

​

It’s slow, quiet and fully guided. I drape you in silk or chiffon, shape the light around you, and pose you down to where your hands go, while you decide exactly how much is covered. What you take home is a portrait that hangs like a painting, in a custom gold frame.

​

Choose from three Collections offering a variety of printed product and digital image, created just for this session.

​

People come to this session for all kinds of reasons. Some are marking a birthday or a milestone. Some want to honor what their body has carried them through. Some have photographed everyone else for years and want one portrait that’s only theirs. And some just want to see what it feels like to be made into art. Whatever brings you here, you’re welcome.​

What to Expect

  • Before your session
    Once you book, I’ll send a prep guide with everything you need: what to bring, how to get ready, and what the day looks like. If you have questions or nerves, text me. I’ve heard them all.

​

  • When you arrive
    We’ll talk through the looks and how much coverage feels right to you: covered shoulders, bare shoulders, or a bare back. You can change your mind at any time. 

​

  • During your session
    You don’t need to plan an outfit. I bring the fabric, drape and pin everything, and guide every pose, down to where your hands go.

​

  • After your session
    About two weeks later, you’ll see your gallery and choose your images. Nothing from your session is ever shared publicly without your approval.

​

  • Your portrait
    Your image is printed as fine art, float-mounted in a custom gold frame or matted in a private, custom Folio. Displayed like a painting in a museum, it’s made to be cherished.

Give as a Gift

Give the Sculpture Session:

For the person who has everything except a portrait of herself. A partner, a mom, a sister, a best friend: this is a gift they’ll actually hang on the wall.

​

How it works:

  • Book through the system below and email me that this is a gift.

  • Choose the Folio or a Collection, or give the $200 Session Fee and let them choose their Collection after their session.

  • I’ll send you a printed gift certificate to give them, or email it if you’re short on time.

  • They can change their session time if the one you chose doesn't work.

​

Gifts need to be booked by Nov 1 so your person can be prepped and ready, and so we can deliver their certificate.

​

If they can’t make these dates, the gift becomes a credit toward a future photoshoot or Annual Plan.

​

Payment plans are available for gifts too.

Questions

  • ​What do I wear?

  • Nude-tone undergarments or pasties depending on your level of comfort, and a robe if you'd like one. I bring all the fabric. 

​​

  • How much do I have to show?

  • Only what you want. We decide together before every look.

 

  • I’ve never done anything like this.

  • Most people haven’t. I guide you through the whole session just like I've done for maternity clients the last 7 years.

 

  • Can I bring someone?

  • Of course, but please keep it to one person. Best friends and sisters tend to be great hype-people! You can even book back to back sessions with your friend or sister.​

 

  • Will you post my photos?

  • Only if you grant permission, my standard privacy policy is always in effect.
