Every year the studio puts together a wishlist of amazing garments, gowns, and dresses to add to the client closet, which is available for use by clients during outdoor and studio portrait sessions. This year, I have decided to publish this list and offer a complimentary session to anyone who purchases the dress for the studio as part of the Prop-to-Print Service.
What Does This Mean For You?
In short, using the client closet is free. The PtoP service goes above and beyond by allowing you to choose any garment from around the world and use it for free. The fine print is that you purchase the approved garment in your size and arrive at the session wearing it, you bring the unwashed garment to your ordering appointment with the receipt, and the studio will buy it from you in the form of art credit which can be applied towards any art purchase, whether print or digital. It is truly a win-win-win option that many clients have taken advantage of over the years.
This year, because there are so many beautiful gowns on the wishlist, I am stepping up the reward and offering a FREE session in addition to the regular PtoP offering as an extra incentive for my top favourites.

The lovely FreeThinker boho lace dress or Cottontail lace dress from Flutter Dresses (with the matching beige slip) are at the top of my wishlist, and I am sure you can see why! [qualifies for a complimentary session]
The simple yet statement pieces from Hazel & Folk are a great option for spring through fall because you can easily add a textured knit to keep warm, a blazer to class it up even more, or leave it as is and enjoy that flowy fabric as it embraces your bump (or no bump!).
UPDATE! This gorgeous linen gown is part of the closet! The stunning RuffleMeRightUp linen and TeaPartyGown dresses from We Are Reclamation are on this year’s wishlist for their simplicity and dreamy qualities (and many others of their beautiful linen and lace dresses qualify for the standard PtoP service). [both qualify for a complimentary session]
The absolutely gorgeous and versatile Inspired Gown from Myrtle & Moss has been on our list for a while, but they finally launched this year and I am so excited to get my hands on one. I still cannot decide which neutral, so all three are on the list! Cream, Champagne, & Golden Brown. [qualifies for a complimentary session]
This A-line dress from Torrid has the perfect amount of lace and textured details that you can style it for a wedding or for a family/maternity portrait session and look absolutely radiant.
The Buttercream Mom+Me+Baby SET of DemiDress from Ivy City Co is the perfect way to keep things simple and coordinating, and add a bunch of fun accessories (think floral shoes, decorative hats or headbands, and more!).
The Dawn Lace Gown, Chloe Duster & Gown, Canyon Moon, Elizabeth, or Novella gowns from Spell are so beautiful with their abundant lacy details and textures, and would look amazing for studio and outdoor sessions. [qualifies for a complimentary session]
This lovely Seraphina lace gown from Belle and Kai is available in mama and child sizes, and is just the right mix of whimsy, dainty, and twirly, making it perfect for mama and me portraits!
The minimalist Clara or Alexis or Amy gown from Silk Fairies in a gorgeous black or neutral is calling my name. Such a simple way to highlight a growing belly in-studio or during any outdoor season.
And last but certainly not least, this gorgeous Briana bohemian lace gown from MaternityPhotoProps. It’s been on my wishlist for a few seasons now, so I am really hoping someone snags it for a session this spring or fall to take advantage of the earthy sage tone or a or neutral (champagne/taupe/mocha). [qualifies for a complimentary session]
