I offer two
different wedding packages. Both come with a full set of color 4 by 6
prints arranged professionally in two beautiful albums. I also include
a select set of black and white prints in a separate attractive album.
The black and white is a bonus for all those people who still have an
appreciation of good black and white photography. These albums are yours
to keep and share with family and friends.
As your photographer,
I am there to capture the essence of the many experiences planned for
your special day. We will work together to make sure I understand what
you want from your photographs. I will offer my own expertise for the
best possible backdrops for your formal portraits and family groups, whether
that is inside or in an outdoor setting like a park or at the reception.
After your
wedding, I will meticulously go over all the prints to make sure they
look their very best and have any reprinted that need fine tuning. I'll
then arrange them in your albums so they tell the story of your special
day. These albums will be ready four weeks after your wedding or union
ceremony. When you pick-up your albums you will select the color and design
of your personalized leather wedding cover. After you have had the opportunity
to review the albums and share them with friends, you may submit your
order for your formal, personalized, leather-bound wedding album, plus your order for any additional enlargements. Your album will be ready in four weeks
for you to take home and share with family and friends.
Events
are always fun to cover. A celebration such as a milestone birthday, anniversary,
family reunion, company picnic (or any occasion that is meaningful to the
celebrants) can be preserved and enjoyed in years to come with a thoughtfully taken series of photographs.
I will work with you to photograph various family and/or friend
groups. I will also take shots of the decorations, cake or whatever catches
my eye that will add perspective to your event.
A portrait
session can be one person, a couple, or a group of people. Your session
can include children and/or pets. I provide a private, relaxed atmosphere
to make your experience a pleasant one. A standard portrait session takes
30-45 minutes and is usually broken into eight sets of three shots. With
this format we will get a variety of poses and backgrounds. Two different
outfits work well in a standard session; a large dressing room with good
lighting is available.
A large family
may need a double session to capture everyone individually or in smaller
groups (i.e. kids only, adults only). You have the option of having your
photo session in my studio, in an outdoor location like Forest Park, or
in your own home.
For
those folks who do not need a full portrait session, I offer a half session
that includes four sets of three different poses, for a total of twelve 4
by 6 color prints and a CD of the images.
Rather than
the standard cookie-cutter style photograph of most high school seniors,
you might want to consider a more personalized approach. We will work
together to bring out your personality in your senior photograph and can
include props to illustrate your interest, i.e. music, sports, or the
arts.
A photo session
will include four to six changes of clothes, starting with your most formal
outfit and working our way through to your most casual look. We will start
the session in my studio and then go to an outdoor setting like Forest
Park.
I offer two
senior packages. The first package includes approximately 45 images, half
in the studio, half outside. The second package includes approximately
70 images with more choices for outdoor locations, like your own high
school. Images from either package will be arranged in an album for sharing
with family and friends.
Since
childhood, I've had a passion for architecture in all of its forms and I
love documenting an old structure before, during, and after a complete renovation/
restoration. Such documentation is frequently required for various tax credits
and incentives, not to mention the excitement that comes from looking back
and seeing how much has been accomplished. I have worked with contractors,
construction companies and a neighborhood housing corporation, documenting
and promoting their achievements. I have also photographed home interiors
for realtors and a bed & breakfast. I recreate the mood and feel of
an interior space with the right kind of lighting and a wide angle lens
that captures more of the space without distorting the image.
