Ways to Work Together
Each landscape begins with a shared moment of attention — walking the land, reading its cues, and listening for what’s possible. Whether you're looking to shape a new garden, refine what you already have, or simply start a conversation, these are the ways we can work together.
It all starts with The Site Study
Every landscape has a story, and every design begins with understanding its nuances. The Site Study is an on-site consultation — an opportunity to walk the land together, discuss your vision, and explore possibilities.
Whether you have specific concerns about existing plantings or are considering a broader transformation, this first step provides clarity and expert insight.
What to expect:
- Site walk-through & discussion of key areas
- Talk through goals, challenges, and opportunities
- Initial thoughts on planting, layout, or potential approaches
- Guidance on next steps — from thoughtful refinements to a longer-term design collaboration
The Site Study is a conversation, not a design plan.
It can stand alone as a useful check-in, or lead to a deeper collaboration.

Landscape Lighting Design
A well-designed landscape doesn’t disappear at night—it transforms.
Lighting is often overlooked or treated as an afterthought, but when designed with care, it can extend the beauty, atmosphere, and functionality of an outdoor space. My approach to lighting is refined and site-sensitive, balancing ambiance, contrast, and practicality.
Dark sky-friendly & environmentally sensitive lighting solutions
Sculptural focal points, pathway illumination & outdoor room definition
A nuanced interplay of shadow, depth & contrast
Can be a standalone service or begin with The Site Study.
Selective Pruning & Plant Guidance
For clients seeking insight on existing plants, I offer selective pruning and horticultural consultation focused on the structure, health, and expression of trees and woody plants.
This is not maintenance — it's artful, informed editing, done with care and attention to season, form, and future growth.
Available as a standalone consultation or as part of an ongoing design relationship.
