Destination Portraits

Portraits for the Adventurous traveler

Having a destination portrait session is a wonderful way to celebrate a big milestone birthday or anniversary, or to just make a trip extra special. Destination portrait sessions are scheduled in specific months for specific destinations. Paris in particular takes place in September. All of the logistics are taken care of for you, such as professional makeup and hairstyling, a private driver for the session who can ensure we are able to get to the 5 locations around the city, and a stop for a French breakfast mid-morning. Add on locations like Giverny, and Versailles are available as well.

Other destinations will be added in the upcoming months, but right now I’m taking bookings for Paris for September of 2024.

If you are looking for a special way to remember the trip of a lifetime, give me a call so wecan chat about what is included in your destination portrait session and how I can create lasting memories for you!
