Connection Sessions

The connection you and your partner have is one of the most beautiful things on this planet. Imagine being able to stop and look back on that chemistry. The way your fingers delicately explore your partner, the stolen glances between each other, and everything in-between. 

Connection sessions are all about slowing down, turning off all the outside noise, and taking the time to reconnect with your partner while documenting the art of your connection. (OH, and add a little bit of ✨ spice ✨)

Are you ready to slow down with your partner and reconnect with each other?

document the art of your connection for a lifetime?

What if you could

A connection session is an intentional couples session where you can take a deep breath, reconnect with your partner, celebrate your love, and nurture that unique bond you share.

Your session is all about you and your partner, which means you can get as steamy you want (or as little as you want). 

Your connection session can look like: 
  • heading to the beach in your swimsuits 
  • soaking in a hot tub (swimsuits/nude/etc)
  • skinny dipping
  • taking a shower/bubble bath (undies/nude/etc)
  • putting on lingerie & getting spicy
  • cozy in-home
  • rolling around in the dirt (undies/nude/sheet)

so... what exactly is a connection session?

— Megan & Alec

"As a couple in front of Sam’s camera, we felt so comfortable and loved being able to truly connect with one another while she preserved these moments in our marriage for us!"

  • We'll have a pre-shoot consultation (after you book) where we'll discuss your vision, what you both hope to get out of this session, etc! We will also get to know each other before your session so you can feel as comfortable as possible on the big day.

  • Your session is all about you and your partner, the bond you share, the love you feel for one another, and the unique chemistry between you two - which means your session will be completely unique to you.

  • Connection sessions are a safe space to come together and celebrate your relationship, empower each other (both individually & as a couple), and take some intentional time to nurture your connection.

THE CONNECTION SESSION INVESTMENT

- B.K. Borison 

"Everything gets quiet when I look at you."

Absolutely not! Your privacy and comfortability is MOST important. The photos I share here and on social media, I have explicit permission from my clients. Most clients choose to keep their images private! 

It's what you are most comfortable with!

It totally depends on the vibe of your session! If you're looking for more of a dark and moody vibe, we might rent a hotel room that fits that! If you're looking for more of an "in-home" vibe, we might rent an airbnb or studio! Or if you're wanting to get steamy out in nature? We'll find a location that works best! 

Yes, your digital photos are included in your session! You'll receive your photos in a private, password-protected, online gallery with the full downloading rights and a print release.

Yes, yes, and yes! I am more than happy to travel to your home so we can document your session in the comfort of your own home.
