Pistols & Petticoats

The only photographer in Sedona with outdoor studio quality lighting and choreographer. Our Elopements and photo sessions are fun and adventurous taking place in beautiful secluded landscapes. We focus on cinematic portraiture, meaning we incorporate movement and fashion-inspired posing and lighting into our work for a breathtaking experience with images like you've never seen before. Our creations are not mere photographs, but world class art, blending photography with choreography together.

Epic images simply don't happen just because there is a Grand Canyon National Park backdrop, a fantastic Sedona, Arizona sunset, or the latest camera gear. If you're like me, I'm stiff and self-conscious in front of the camera. It shows up in my face, fingers, lips, shoulders, hips, and joints. We have 43 muscles in our face. There are thousands of nuances embedded in our body language that speak how we are really feeling. Nervous! I have become an expert coach... spending the past decade refining and heightening my awareness of body language. Thanks to Joe Navarro and Vanessa Van Edwards, world experts on the subtleties of our physical body language. I give you movements, steps, breathing exercises, and ways to shake off the nerves that
