Francelles Photography Client Closet

Client Closet

With a carefully curated collection of over 30 women’s dresses (S–XXXL) and children’s outfits (newborn to size 7/8), you’ll find timeless, flattering pieces that elevate your portraits—without the hassle of shopping.

Every item is chosen for its elegance and ability to photograph beautifully in any setting. You’re welcome to try on outfits before your session or choose one the day of—completely free. A photo guide of available gowns makes selecting easy, and new pieces are regularly added to keep the collection fresh.

For those who prefer to purchase their own gown, my "buy-back" program offers image credit for dresses that fit the client closet style.

The client closet is here to save you time, reduce stress, and ensure your portraits are effortless and stunning. Let me know how I can help you find the perfect look!

Helpful tips, session details, and inspiration to make the most of your photography experience

Hey there, I’m Katie and I'm so glad you’re here!

I know picking a photographer can be a bit like dating—it's all about finding the right vibe. You want someone who captures more than just great photos, but also creates a fun, stress-free experience. That’s where I come in! I’m here to make sure you feel relaxed, laugh a little (or a lot), and walk away with memories that make you smile for years to come.

Let me share a bit about who I am, what my studio has to offer, and how we can turn this experience into something truly special (and maybe a little bit of fun, too)!

Katie chavez, photographer

A little bit about me...

Mother of Three- I’m blessed to be called “mom” by two sweet boys and a little princess. My kiddos are getting into their teenage years, so I’m definitely in the growing-up too-fast phase. 

Boise Native & Married to my High school Sweetheart-Seriously so blessed!

Total Animal Lover!- My family and friends affectionately call me Snow White

Bit of an Old Soul at Heart-  Art, painting, puzzles, board games, playing the piano, these little joys bring so much creativity and calm to my life! I swear I'm not boring!

Francelle is my Middle Name- (pronounced Fran-cell), holds a special place in my heart as a family name passed down from my great-grandmother. 

Summer Babe all the way!-My family and I thrive in the great outdoors, spending our days kayaking, biking, fishing, and camping. Nature is our happy place, and it’s one of the many reasons we love calling Idaho home.

I truly believe I have the BEST job ever!-I fell in love with photography over 17 years ago when I picked up my first camera, and that passion has only grown. One of my favorite parts of this journey is being invited back into my clients' lives time and time again.
