Introduction

MORE THAN A PHOTOGRAPHER. I am a creative visual artist/storyteller with the vision, ability, and passion to reveal the intrinsic. I seek to always expose the sub-textual significance and unique qualities within every image. I seem to need to point out that "I DON'T DO WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY", please don't send me leads for wedding photography! I connect with my clients. My approach is one of trust and relationship-building. I provide a safe, comfortable, relaxed setting that confirms you in good hands and good company. I am totally committed to creating quality, inspiring images that elicit a lasting and powerful impression. Further, I don’t just provide remarkable images, I also deliver a rock steady business approach with on-time, on-target project completion dates that consistently surpass clients' expectations. Whether you are an individual seeking portraits for yourself or your family, a small or large business building your image or marketing a product... Let me help you transcend your expectations and stand out from the crowd with inspiring images no one will soon forget.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

First, we'll have a free consultation to discuss what type of photos you want to take. We'll brainstorm together and come up with the best ideas for you.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

In high school I was in the photography program shooting and processing film and photographs in the school darkroom. After graduating 1974, military service and family obligations put a temporary hold on my passion for photography. I re-connected in the digital age, and began taking on-line courses where I became aware of the advantage of shooting in Adobe Camera Raw (as opposed to jpeg) and the workflow process for achieving proper white balance, exposure, contrast, saturation, tonal balance, and sharpening with Photoshop. By constantly practicing what I learned and learning new techniques every week I grew more confident in my ability to adjust my camera settings to produce high quality images. I'll never know it all, and at present I'm studying off camera lighting and Photoshop blending techniques - especially as these techniques apply to real estate photography.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

Photography has been a hobby of mine for years and morphed into part time in 2012.

What types of customers have you worked with?

Photography has includes corporate headshots, Senior photos, back to school photos and family sessions.

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

The three biggest things are satisfaction, quality and efficiency. I pride myself on fast sessions and turn around. Especially if you are in need of a photo quickly, look for a photographer willing to deliver quality in a short time frame.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

These are the top 2 questions photographers will ask when planning and confirming a photo shoot: 1. Do you have a specific location in mind for your photo shoot? 2. How many subjects do you want for your photo shoot? Quotes may vary if you would like to add/omit people from the session.
