The Editorial session
For Proposals, Engagements, & Portraiture
Before the production of the wedding day, we document the quiet chemistry of your connection.
Whether planning a surprise proposal in Austin or a stylized engagement session, we approach these commissions with the same editorial eye and operational care as our wedding work.
Portraiture commissions begin at $1,200 and include up to 90 minutes of coverage, featuring editorial direction, bespoke location scouting, and a fully curated high-resolution archive.
To ensure the intimacy of the setting and the highest quality of light, availability is prioritized for weekday evenings (Monday through Thursday).

WHY ARE SESSIONS PRIORITIZED FOR WEEKDAYS?
We prioritize Monday through Thursday dates for two operational reasons: privacy and light. Weekday evenings allow us to access Austin’s most beautiful locations without the interference of weekend crowds, ensuring your session feels private and the imagery remains clean. Weekends are exclusively reserved for our full-production wedding commissions.
DO WE NEED TO CHOOSE THE LOCATION?
You do not need to have a specific location in mind. Your commission includes bespoke location scouting. Once we understand your vision, we will curate a list of environments, from architectural landmarks to quiet nature reserves, that align with the aesthetic of your relationship.
HOW MANY IMAGES WILL WE RECEIVE?
We believe in a curated, editorial approach rather than overwhelming you with duplicates. For a 90-minute commission, you can expect a finished gallery of approximately 75+ high-resolution images, each edited with the same attention to detail as our wedding work.
WHAT IS THE TURNAROUND TIME?
Just as with our wedding commissions, we understand the excitement of the moment. You will receive an Editorial Preview of highlights within 24 hours of your session, with the full curated archive delivered within 4 weeks.
WE ARE PLANNING A SURPRISE PROPOSAL. CAN YOU HELP COORDINATE?
Absolutely. For surprise proposals, we act as a silent partner in the production. We will help you select the exact spot for the best light, coordinate the timing of your arrival, and remain unobtrusive until the moment is captured.
DO YOU HELP WITH STYLING?
Yes. We believe wardrobe is a critical element of the final image. Upon booking, you will receive our Heirloom Preparation Guide, which covers color theory, movement, and how to select pieces that photograph effortlessly. We are also available for direct consultation on outfit choices.
