Some photo sessions are planned. Others begin as quiet daydreams – moments imagined long before they exist.
A string of tiny princess dresses swaying on a clothesline in the backyard. Two people laughing through a summer rainstorm. Paint-splattered hands, wet car windows, candlelight behind a mask.
These are the stories that live on my bucket list.
What is a Bucket List Session?
Bucket list sessions are creative concepts I’ve been dreaming of photographing-scenes inspired by nostalgia, love stories, childhood wonder, and the kind of moments that feel like they belong in a memory box.
They’re not about recreating someone else’s vision. They’re about creating something meaningful together-images that feel honest, whimsical, and deeply personal.
The Stories I’m Dreaming Of
Some of these ideas have been living in my heart for a long time:
A child’s princess clothesline – pastel princess dresses dancing in the breeze, capturing childhood magic, imagination, and the softness of growing up too fast.
Love in the rain – the kind of love that doesn’t wait for perfect weather. Barefoot laughter, soaked clothes, and the romance of choosing joy even when the sky opens up.
Love at the lake – slow mornings, gentle waves, sun-warmed skin, and the peaceful intimacy of being together where time feels like it pauses.
Love at the masquerade – mystery, elegance, and candlelit romance. A little dramatic, a little fairytale, and entirely unforgettable.
Looks Like We Made It – high school sweethearts, now married. A celebration of growing together, weathering seasons, and choosing each other again and again. Fun and playful just like those high school kids were when they found each other.
A couples car wash date – playful, flirty, and carefree. Soap suds on windows, laughter in the driveway, and love in the everyday moments we often forget to slow down for.
A couples paint date – messy, creative, and intimate. Color stained hands, shared laughter and art made not for perfection, but for connection.
This is just a little clip of the stories I daydream about creating. Each concept is just a starting point. The real magic comes from the people who step into it.
Why I Offer Bucket List Sessions
These sessions allow me to create art with freedom- without rushing, without trends dictating the story.
They’re about:
- Emotion over perfection
- Connection over, over posing
- Storytelling that feels lived in and real
When you book a bucket list session, you’re helping turn a dream into something tangible. Something that lasts and you’ll have portraits that stand out.
What Makes Them Different
Bucket list sessions are:
- Limited and intentional
- Concept-driven, but relaxed
- Collaborative and personal
- Rooted in storytelling
- Outside of the box of standard photography
Let’s Create Something That Feels Like You
If one of these ideas made your heart pause for a second, that’s probably your story calling.
Bucket list sessions aren’t about just checking something off a list for me. They are about creating something meaningful-something that feels like art and memory woven together.
If you’re ready to dream with me and create something beautiful, I’d love to tell your story.
