I have worked with Janel on a multitude of projects from editorial, branding, special occasion & creative.

Her turn around time is also quick. Below are some of the images Janel captured for my brand. I am a stylist.
Working with Janel was a dream come true! She was absolutely incredible.

The results were so beautiful. She has a great eye for capturing the best moments. The shoot felt so natural and empowering. I LOVE her. I 100% recommend her. You NEED to book a session with her.
Feeling so comfortable allowed me to feel powerful, confident, and beautiful during our shoot. She has an amazing vision that you can only grasp when you see the incredible photos that she delivers. Janel has taken some of my very favorite photos and I adore collaborating with her!
I tell love stories through my lens.
I believe that every couple has their own unique love story, and it is my mission to tell that story through my photography. The result will be beautiful images that you and your partner will treasure forever.
Whether it’s a proposal, a home photo session, an intimate dinner, or a day on the beach, I will document it all; the laughter, the tears, and everything in between. I want you to look back on your photos and fall in love with each other all over again.
You're truly wild – messy hands, hair that's been played with by the wind, and belly laughs that echo in the heart. You're looking for a photographer who will guide you, but also lets you be yourself and have fun during the session.
You're a dreamer at heart – eyes sparkling with wanderlust, a smile that's lit up by the stars, and a spirit that dances to its own melody. You want a photographer who can catch those fleeting, ethereal moments that define you.
You're all about connection – hands entwined, souls meeting in a simple glance, and laughter that resonates in the very fiber of your being. You're seeking a photographer who can frame those intimate ties that make your love story truly timeless.
When photographing a couple, I want to focus on the connection between them. This means capturing both the emotions and physicality of their relationship. Look for opportunities to capture tender moments as well as playful interactions. And be sure to pay attention to the little details that make their relationship special.
There’s no wrong time to do a couple portrait photoshoot. However, there are a few things to consider when planning your session. First, think about the season. Each time of year has its own unique beauty, so choose a time that will best suit your vision. You’ll also want to factor in any special occasions that you might want to commemorate with photos. If you’re not sure when to schedule your session, just ask me for guidance.
The best time for a portrait session is typically when the sun is low in the sky, such as early morning or late afternoon. This gives you the benefit of softer light, which is more flattering for photography. However, if you are willing to get up early or stay out late, the golden hour – just before sunrise or just after sunset – can provide even more beautiful lighting for your portraits.
When it comes to couple photography, what you wear is up to you. However, there are a few things to keep in mind. First, consider the location of your shoot. If you’re doing an outdoor session, dress for the weather and terrain. For indoor shoots, think about the overall aesthetic you’re going for. You may also want to coordinate your outfits so that you complement each other without being too matchy-matchy. Also, I usually advise my customers against using patterns, letters, paintings, or bright colors. These might take the viewer’s attention away from the picture’s main theme – your bond. Whatever you decide, just be sure that you’re comfortable and feel like yourselves.
The best way to capture natural-looking couple portraits is to let the couple interact with each other while I take the photo. This could involve anything from holding hands and looking into each other’s eyes, to playful banter and laughing together.
Some of my favorite couple poses for portrait photography are standing, walking, sitting, lying down, leaning on a wall, holding hands, kissing, kissing the hand or the forehead, hugging, hugging from behind, holding the other person’s face, sexy and classy poses, doing something silly, and lots more.
I just let them be themselves and have fun – this will result in the most genuine-looking photos!
Your love story is the best fairy tale, and I would be honored to be the one to tell it.

I spend some time talking with you about your relationship and what you love about each other. This will help me understand what kind of story you want to tell with your photos.
