WHAT TO EXPECT
Your session time includes the full studio experience — wardrobe preparation, lighting adjustments, shooting, posing and movement direction, look changes, and short breaks when needed.
You don’t need modeling experience. I’ll guide you through poses, movement, angles, and expressions throughout the session while giving you space to explore what feels natural on camera.
If additional time is needed, the session may be extended when my schedule allows. Extra studio time is available for an additional fee and must stay within the format of your booked package.
Questions and answers
Will I receive every photo from the session?
Your gallery will include a curated selection of the strongest images from the session. Duplicates, test shots, missed expressions, and technically unsuccessful frames are removed during the selection process.
How are the photos edited?
Editing depends on the session. Model Digitals receive natural color and exposure correction only, keeping your appearance true to life. Model Experience includes a naturally corrected curated gallery plus 3 images of your choice with full professional retouching. Portfolio Development includes full retouching of the selected final images.
Do you retouch Model Digitals?
Model Digitals are intentionally kept natural for agency submissions and castings. I may adjust exposure, white balance, color, cropping, and alignment, but I do not alter skin texture, facial features, body shape, or other characteristics that change your natural appearance.
When will I receive my photos?
Your curated gallery is typically delivered within 1-3 business days after the session. Fully retouched selections are delivered within 5-10 business days after you submit your favorites.
How do I select my retouched images?
For sessions that include fully retouched photographs, you’ll receive an online selection gallery. Simply mark your favorites, and I’ll begin the final retouching once your selections are submitted.
Can I purchase additional retouched images?
Yes. Additional fully retouched images can be purchased after your session for $15 per image.
How should I prepare for Model Digitals?
CLOTHING
Keep it simple, fitted, and neutral. A fitted T-shirt or tank with jeans or simple fitted pants works best. Black, white, gray, denim, and other neutral colors photograph well. Avoid oversized clothing, bold prints, visible logos, and distracting details.
SHOES
Bring clean, simple shoes such as loafers or sneakers. Women may also bring a pair of simple heels if appropriate for their agency or submission. Barefoot shots also work well for clean, natural model digitals.
HAIR
Come with clean, natural-looking hair. Avoid elaborate styling. Your current haircut, texture, and length should be clearly visible.
MAKEUP & SKIN
Keep makeup minimal and natural. Agencies need to see what you actually look like. Avoid heavy foundation, contouring, false lashes, and dramatic eye makeup. Arrive with clean, moisturized skin whenever possible.
NAILS & ACCESSORIES
Keep nails clean and neutral. Remove or minimize jewelry, watches, and other accessories.
BEFORE YOUR SESSION
Please arrive camera-ready and wearing or bringing your planned outfit. Model Digitals are a short session, so extensive hair, makeup, or wardrobe preparation is not included in the 20-minute shooting time.
AGENCY REQUIREMENTS
If you’re submitting to a specific agency, check their current requirements before your session and send them to me in advance. Some agencies request specific clothing, framing, or poses.
Do I need modeling experience?
No. Model Experience and Portfolio Development include posing and movement direction throughout the session. Model Digitals are also guided, so you don’t need to know agency poses before arriving.
Which session should I book?
Choose Model Digitals if you simply need current, natural snapshots for agency submissions, castings, or updates. Choose Model Experience if you want to try modeling, practice working in front of the camera, and receive your first professionally retouched images. Choose Portfolio Development if you’re ready to intentionally build or expand your portfolio with multiple looks, creative direction, and fully planned model tests.
Can I use the studio wardrobe?
Selected pieces from the studio wardrobe may be available depending on your session, look, and size. If you’re interested in using studio wardrobe, please let me know before your session so we can plan your looks in advance.
READY TO BOOK?
Tell me which package you’re interested in, your preferred date, and what you’d like to get from your session. Feel free to send references or inspiration too.

I loved working with her! So fun and considerate! She made sure I was always comfortable.
Natalie Riggs
amazing to work with!! She is professional and has great visions for her work. I was new to modeling and she made me feel comfortable and helped me learn. Would definitely recommend working with her!
Sasha
I had such a great time shooting with Lena! As someone who’s usually shy and has no idea how to pose in front of a camera I felt completely at ease. She is incredibly talented and made the entire experience fun and easy. Highly recommend her for beautiful, high-quality photos and a truly memorable experience!
