Where are you located?

The studio location is: 2068 Walsh Ave, Ste A, Santa Clara, CA 95050. I travel across the Bay Area for outdoor sessions - travel within Silicon Valley is included.

How to book a session?

You can book directly on the booking page or drop a message to hello@pacifica.studio for questions or a custom quote.

How long does a typical session last?

Outdoor packages run about an hour on-location. I add a small buffer so we can adjust light, poses, and spots without feeling rushed.

When and how will I receive my photos?

On the day of your session, you'll receive a link to an online gallery where you can select your favorite images for photo proofing. Once you've made your selections, I typically deliver the retouched high-resolution photos within three days. If you need them sooner, please let me know, and I'll prioritize the retouching at no additional cost.

What if I’m not happy with the results?

Your satisfaction is my top priority. Please review the retouched photos when delivered, as they reflect my professional standard and style. If you're not completely happy, we can adjust edits or schedule a follow-up. Please avoid judging from unedited raws, since they don’t represent the final result. If you’re still not satisfied, I can provide a refund - no questions asked.

Book This Package

Hi, I'm Kate - the owner and lead photographer at my studio. I started my photography work because I believe portraits should capture more than just how you look - they should reflect how you live and who you are. I love connecting with people and hearing their stories, and lifestyle photography lets me bring those moments to life. During our session, I create a comfortable, natural environment where you can simply enjoy the moment while I capture it. My goal is to photograph the laughter, the quiet glances, the details, and the energy that make your story unique. Every session is about celebrating your life as it is right now - authentic, beautiful, and entirely yours.
