The Portrait gallery


Portraits can range from senior photos to a bridal session to a session designed solely for the purpose of remembering this segment in time, maybe the last session before kids or the first time you felt like yourself again. Prior to your session, we will collaborate on outfits, location, and items you may want to bring that represent you. This is to ensure your gallery captures what you envisioned. During portrait sessions, I like to take time to help you get comfortable in front of the camera, finding poses that make you feel beautiful. Your gallery will include a combination of black and white images, crisp images close up and far away, and blurred images that bring life to movement and laughter. I photograph mostly in portrait but will also include some landscape imagery in each gallery. 


IDYL /ˈĪDL/  noun

an extremely happy, peaceful, or picturesque episode or scene


Pictures, for me, are true escapes to moments we weren’t ready to let go of... but time didn’t allow otherwise.

My name is Abi, the photographer behind IDYL Photo, and I photograph life and love.  To me, styling a photo is like creating a collage: every detail in the frame is an opportunity to tell one more part of your story. I can't wait to see the story we craft together.
