PORTRAITS & FAMILY PHOTOS:
In need of your annual family photos? How about some High School Senior portraits? Or maybe just something for fun… Still unsure? Take a look at my portfolio pages for Family and Models to get some ideas of some of the things we can do together. We can go to your favorite spot, whether it be a park, the mountains, beach, etc. or create a fun environment to try and capture your vision in a setting where we can control the lighting. I would love to hear your ideas and try to make them happen for you.









All of the images to the left are photographs I have taken either in a studio setting or outside using mostly natural light (with a little help from reflectors or off-camera flashes). You can view more images like these in the Portfolio section.
“PLEASE DESCRIBE YOUR PORTRAIT PROCESS”
- I like to meet before setting up a shoot to discuss your needs.
- At this meeting we will discuss locations, the look, outfits, makeup, props, etc.
- Once all has been agreed on we set up a date (or dates) to shoot.
- After the shoot I start the post-processing of images.
- It can take up to a couple of weeks to get them finalized for viewing.
- I then post the final images to a password-protected area of my website for you to view.
- Also, I will burn the images to a personalized disc and deliver or mail them to you.
- If you want prints, cards, books, canvases, etc. of your images we can discuss as I provide these items as well.

- Prints: I offer three different high-grade paper types that have a standard Archival Value of 100 years in home display or 200 years in storage.

“DO YOU OWN YOUR OWN STUDIO?”

"…AND YOUR PRICES?"
- Prices will be calculated based on our initial meeting.
- It is very hard to have just a standard price for portraits as each shoot is a little different from the next.
HOW DO YOUR PASSWORD-PROTECTED PAGES WORK?
- I create new pages in my Password-Protected area that contain your photos and give that page a unique password for you only. You can pass this on to anyone you like but I only give out that password to you. Once you decide the page is no longer needed then I delete it completely.
PLEASE NOTE…
- Please book early, especially for weekend shoots.
- $200 deposit to reserve the date.
