Introduction: Twenty years of experience, professional training, knowledge of lighting and composition, and a personal touch with a friendly smile go a long way toward helping people feel comfortable in front of my camera -- even grumps.
My Guarantee… It’s Personal
When I deliver your finished portraits, I want you to be absolutely thrilled. I do what it takes, including reshooting if that’s what’s needed, to know we’ve got what you envisioned. I take each portrait and family session personally. It’s my goal to ensure you are more than satisfied.
I feel the only thing limiting your portraits from being spectacular is your own imagination. As your photographer, I’ll work with you to bring to life the images you have in your head that generate the emotions and feelings you experience with your family.
My Process
Great technique, lighting, composition and posing are the cornerstones to a great portrait. Taking that foundation, I then turn your beautiful portrait into a work of art through enhancements and finishing touches.
On top of that, I only schedule a limited number of sessions each day to take advantage of the best light, work around the baby’s nap time, and help everyone feel relaxed and comfortable. The session is about you and your experience… and I enjoy making new friends in the process!
And went it’s all done and the final portrait is ready, I’ll bring it to your home and even showcase it for you in it’s new home.
Family portraits have a way of expressing the most vivid and memorable moments throughout the years and lives of your loved ones. It’s that special moment when your young one is off to preschoool or graduating from high school… and even those special moments when the family dog is one of the most important members in the house.
That smile it creates each time you look at your family… it’s what a portrait does.
And, that’s why it’s so important you cherish each of your finished portraits.
