BOOKING
DETAILS
I believe that every senior deserves to have photos that look and feel like them and that their senior session should be a celebration of what makes them unique. No two seniors are the same, so why should their sessions be?
From helping you choose your session wardrobe, to giving you the unique option of having a Style Closet of clothes and accessory options, to location selection, to scheduling hair and makeup for you , I GOT YOU. I want your senior session experience to be fun & stress free which is why I prioritize connection and customization each step of the way.
I believe the greatest gift I give my seniors is not the pretty pictures we make together, but ensuring that I create an environment where you can each feel comfortable enough to just be YOU.
be unapologetically
YOU.
Look through my different session options and choose the one that you feel best fits the senior session experience you're dreaming about. Each session I offer is ALL-inclusive, which means the digital files are included with your session. With different shooting times, outfit changes, and number of digital files, there's a session package that works for everyone. And if you find none are just right? You have the option of adding-on hair, make up, additional digital files, as well as the option of UPGRADING to a destination session.
Once you decide which session package best suits your needs, fill out my contact form. At that point, I'll send you the link to choose your session date and put your $350 deposit down. After I get confirmation of your booking, you'll get an email from me with your contract and payment plan. Once I get your signed contract back, you'll receive my "Slice of You" session questionnaire to help us start planning your session.
Choose your SESSION
The "Slice of You" questionnaire is my absolute favorite tool to use to get to know you ahead of your session. The questionnaire will ask direct questions to help you start thinking of the aesthetic for your shoot and with that as our guide, I'll offer l location suggestions based on my years of shooting and never ending scouting. If you decide on a destination session, I can also provide guidance there as well, since I've had the pleasure of traveling all over the country and Puerto Rico for senior sessions throughout the years. There's a lot that goes into planning ANY session, so it's important that you give yourself 3-4 weeks before your session for our consultation.
Besides location the most important part of our consultation is finalizing your wardrobe for your session. I've always said that I love helping my seniors style their looks for their session just as much as I love shooting the photos. I provide as much or as little help as you want with finalizing your looks and with access to the Slice Style closet that has jewelry, clothes and other accessories, you have additional options at your disposal to help polish off your looks. I've had many a senior texting me asking my opinion while they're out shopping. That is what I am here for!
Pre-Session Consult
On the day of your session, all you have to do is show up and have fun! That's why it's so important that we use your pre-session consult to work out all the details so you can stroll into your session prepared.
If you opted to add Hair and Make up to your session, we will have made that appointment for you and our hair and make up team will greet you at the studio when you arrive! They’ll work with you to ensure that they nail the look you’re going for and sending you out the door feeling confident and ready to shine!
Feel nervous? That's totally normal! Everyone need a little time to warm up and find their groove during their session. But NO WORRIES! I gotchu!
One of my super powers is making each of the seniors in front of my lens feel comfortable. I do not expect you to roll up to your session being a super model. Sure I take the photos, but I'm also your hype woman, creative director, and posing coach from start to finish.
Session Day Awesomeness
After your session, your photos go home with me, are backed up, culled and receive a light edit. I will fully retouch at least one image from each outfit so you can see what a full edit looks like. You’ll then receive a watermarked proof gallery via email to choose your favorite images. The number of favorites you get to choose are based on your session package. However, this year I've added the option to add-on additional digital files for a fee if you want more digital files beyond what your session includes. The favorites list then makes its way back to me, where those favorites are fully edited.
Since, ALL OF OUR PACKAGES NOW INCLUDE THE DIGITAL FILES, once your photos are retouched, your final gallery is delivered right to your inbox where you can download and share them in an instant!
But don't you worry, if you want to order prints and products, no need to download and order from some random lab, you can order prints, wall art, and grad cards from our professional lab that caters to photographers, RIGHT THROUGH YOUR GALLERY in our online Slice of Lime store.

Jillian, Client Mom
“Slice is different because it’s a breath of fresh air! Emil makes you feel like a real life model! She’s very unique and has a different (creative) eye that makes the final outcome look so awesome! My favorite part was all of the different locations that made you feel like you were in a different world when you saw the finished product! The best hands down!"
Sara D.
“Emil has a special talent for capturing her client’s pure essence. All planning was done in an included pre-session which made shooting day enjoyable and stress-free. Emil's passion for photography intertwined with her communicability ensured a fantastic shoot-day experience. I could not imagine having my senior pictures done anywhere else. every aspect of my senior portrait experience was more than I could’ve hoped for!”
You absolutely wear your own clothes. However, one of the unique things that Slice offers is a style closet that is full of jewelry, hats, coats & a variety of clothing items. Access to the closet is included with our each of our sessions. I help pull items that may work with the look and style you're going for and I provide as little or as much guidance as you feel you need!
Do we wear our own clothes or do you provide that?
Once you decide if Slice of Lime is for you, you’ll want to book right away. Slice of Lime only takes on a
limited number of clients each year. As such, Slice of Lime sells out of dates every year, so it is important you book early to not miss out on your desired time frame. Fill out my contact form to get the direct link to the booking calendar.
When should I book my session?
Absolutely! A $350 session retainer fee is due at the time of booking to reserve your date. This deposit is then applied towards your total session costs. Then your remaining balance will be divided into thirds and due at 6 weeks, 4 weeks, and 2 weeks before your session date. However, if you wish to split your payment into more than just 4 payments, JUST ASK. I'm more than happy to accommodate that. Your session balance must be paid in full prior to your date to avoid having to reschedule. Slice of Lime accepts most major credit cards, debit cards, checks, and cash.
Do you offer payment plans And what are your forms of payment?
In the event of rain or other inclement weather on the day of your session, we will reschedule for another day. The decision on whether to reschedule will be made at least 2 hours before your hair and make up
appointment or 2 hours before the start of your session if you are not getting hair and make up. I do not
reschedule however, on days that are overcast.
What happens if it RAINS on the day of my session?
I schedule my senior sessions on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Your sessions begin 3-5 hours before the sun sets. Exact start time will change depending on which session you book ,whether you’ve added hair and make up to your package, the time of year we’re shooting, & where we are shooting.
When do you schedule your senior sessions?
Oh my word, ABSOLUTELY. Our hair and make up team can give you any look you want and you are 100
percent in control of how you look in your photos. Our make up team is known for being the best of the best in our area and they work with each senior to ensure that they come up with a look that makes them feel
empowered, confident, and like their best self.
I’m worried I won’t look like myself if I get hair and make up; do I have a say in my look?
Session fees are non-refundable. However, they can be applied towards future sessions. We know that sometimes life just happens and emergencies and illnesses do occur. We are more than willing to work with you to reschedule your session when those situations occur.
