- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to start with an informal interview to get to know one another's expectations and decide if I fit what you are looking for and if you fit my style of photography. I have many photographer friends that I can refer you to if we find we are not the right match. This is an important step in deciding your photographer. If you don't like the personality and style of in person communication, you won't enjoy your shoot or make fun memories.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have read many books, taught high school photography, and attend workshops and conferences both local and in other states to work on improving my skills, honing my style, and making sure I am the best photographer I can be. Photography is a ever learning experience and since I love to learn, it fits me!
