Fun, Timeless Photography

Q. Describe the most common types of jobs you do for your clients.

A. Graduations! or just portraits in general. I love them! I know how happy my family was to have my senior high school portrait displayed at home and I can only hope other families can say the same about their son or daughters.

Q. What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A. Maybe I'm what you're looking for in a photographer. Maybe I'm not. Searching for a photographer is not easy, especially when you have so much competition in an area this big. Photography companies might not offer you the personal service. A private photographer may not have enough experience. Whatever you choose, it is ultimately YOUR decision. Choose someone who is personable, friendly, and cares about your wants, and not their own. Pricing is always a big issue when is comes to photography. Equipment and time is not cheap, we photographers have to make money too. But it shouldn't be over-the-top expensive either. Shop around and ask questions; make sure your getting the most for your dollar.

Q. If you were a customer, what do you wish you knew about your trade? Any inside secrets to share?

A. I would want to know how comfortable my experience would be! Lets face it, having a complete stranger take your photos is a little awkward. I've been there, so I know the feeling. How can you feel comfortable when the you barely know the person behind the lens? I spend time getting to know my clients and their needs. You'll get the free consultation so we can meet face to face and discuss what it is YOU want from the photos.

Q. Why does your work stand out from others who do what you do?

A. Affordability. Personality. Professionalism.

Q. What do you like most about your job?

A. First and foremost, this is NOT my Job. This is my hobby. The day I start to feel photography is just a job, is the day I stop. I take photos because I love bringing joy to people. Nothing makes me happier than to see someone genuinely happy with their photographs. Its such an honor to know that I played a part capturing those lifelong memories.

Q. What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

A. I am commonly asked to retouch photos. Maybe there was a misplaced hair or a bad blemish. My answer to that is yes, I can and will, at your request, retouch your photos. Everyone is beautiful, both inside and outside of my lens. Therefore, more extreme retouching will be at your request. My goal is to bring out your beauty (and handsomeness, for the fellas) through the snap of the frame, not the after editing of photos. However, I want you to be as happy as possible with your photos. If you see something you need tweaked or fixed in a photo, please let me know and I'll be happy to edit it for you.

Q. Do you have a favorite story from your work?

A. Overall, just my fun clients! I like to try new things and go different places, so your photos DON'T look like everyone elses! My favorite clients are those who aren't afraid to try new things!
