Payment: Full payment can be made on the day of the shoot, either by cash or Venmo.
What to Wear: I’ve created a guide to make your outfit choices easy. Want to keep it simple? I recommend opting for neutral colors or black and white, and choosing something you feel great in.

Larger Groups: The process of photographing larger groups is slower, more people means more portraits all around. My attention will be divided to all the members of the group to make beautiful portraits.

To start the experience as smoothly as possible, I recommend checking the arrival time on your ride-sharing app and giving yourself an extra 20 minutes to avoid unexpected traffic delays.
When we start our photoshoot, you'll receive guidance on posing naturally and action prompts to create fun moments. If this is your first photoshoot, no worries—we'll guide you throughout the entire session.
Additionally, you may want to bring your own water and snacks for the kids. All our locations have nearby cafes, which can be a great place to relax after the shoot.
P.S. Feel free to bring along accessories like sunglasses, a keffiyeh, or any other personal touches.
-
The photos will be uploaded to our online client gallery within 1 to 2 weeks after the shoot, and you will receive the gallery link via email. Same-day sneak peeks and faster delivery are available upon request.
All photos are high-resolution JPG files. Make sure to download the entire album in the original high-resolution size option and keep them safe.

25th Anniversary Couple Shoot
This was a special shoot to celebrate their 25th anniversary and to create lasting memories of their time in Amman before their move. Taken during the heat of August, our 8:00 am start time ensured cooler weather and an empty site at the Amman Citadel. They chose a classic color scheme with a bold pop of emerald green, which looked great. Despite it being their first professional shoot, the images came out natural and lovely.
-
Solo Traveler Shoot
Meet our guest, a world traveler who booked her first photoshoot abroad with us. During our 1-hour shoot we guided her with natural posing and prompts. She chose an earth-tone outfit and scarf accessories. There was great natural light on this 8:00 am shoot in June, and she brought her own camera to capture additional images along our walk.
-
Jabal Amman Family Photos
This gallery showcases a family of four, captured during a 25-minute mini shoot at 10:00 am in November. We kept the shoot short for the kids, and they were treated with ice cream on Rainbow Street afterwards, making for a fun experience! The neutral color scheme perfectly complements the city’s backdrop and the colorful street art, creating beautiful and memorable photos.
-
A Glowing Sunset Maternity Shoot
This stunning session captures the warm glow of an August sunset at the Amman Citadel. The couple envisioned a sun-drenched, warm atmosphere, and we were able to bring that to life just as the sun dipped below the horizon. They opted for simple white outfits with natural textures, paired with jeans for a casual vibe. To make the shoot even more personal, they brought along flowers and props to include in the latest images of their baby, adding a very cute special touch.
-
A Winter Sunset Solo Shoot
Our guest Christine was on an incredible solo travel adventure and booked a last-minute shoot with us. This session perfectly showcases a winter sunset in Amman, captured in early December just before the real cold set in. The golden hues were exactly what we hoped for as the sun glowed over the horizon. We loved her choice of an earthy green outfit paired with a golden yellow/orange scarf, which added a beautiful contrast to the warm, glowing backdrop.

A Morning Session in October
This lovely couple opted for our 1-hour session at 9:00 AM in October, right in the heart of fall. Having just moved to the country, they wanted a photoshoot to celebrate both their new beginning and their anniversary. We adore the flowy dress she chose, paired with a jean jacket—it added so much movement and variety to the photos. He also kept it casual with a white sweater and jeans, creating a comfortable and authentic look that reflects their style.
