My goal isn't a perfect pose. There are a lot of professional pose coaches in the world, but without understanding how to work your face and your eyes, all those poses just show a pretty person looking at a camera.
Don't get me wrong, posing is vitally important to learn and understand, but posing is often seen as the end goal when in reality poses are actually tools in your toolbelt, meant to help you tell the story you want the viewer to see.
We will work on how posing, wardrobe, and even lighting, can influence the story, but how ultimately your face and eyes are what sell the viewer.

we are so glad we hired Matt to help build her modeling portfolio.

Frequently asked questions
what even IS this?
A structured portfolio session focused on agency-ready digitals and refined editorial imagery.
Do I need modeling experience?
All experience levels are welcome. Direction and feedback are part of the process; we work together to capture your strongest angles and natural presence.
what should I wear/bring?
Simple, well-fitted basics in neutral tones work best. We’ll align on wardrobe before your session to ensure each look supports your portfolio but I recommend choosing things that you feel comfortable in and show of your form well.
How long is the session?
Plan for two hours. Sometimes it takes less, other times after two hours we feel like we've just started. Trust me, more than two hours and you will be exhausted. It takes a lot of energy to tell a story.
How many images will I receive?
You’ll receive a curated selection of about 30 retouched, high-resolution images designed to strengthen your book.
can i also get digitals?
Yes, you can add on digitals for half price, or you can book a digital-only session without the full coaching.
can I bring someone?
Yes, however I am going to ask that they do not engage during your session so that we can focus on your development and not be distracted by a third-party's input.
