We offer both indoor and outdoor portrait sessions and can go to the location of your choice. Because of our portable equipment, we can set up indoor sessions anywhere you choose, and anywhere outside that has a nice background is also great. We can also set up for events like dances or church events to photograph couples or families. See our portfolio.
Portrait session price includes all high resolution photos in both black and white and in color on CD with a photographer release form. Printing assistance is available and we can make a personal photo website for you and your family to preview and shop from home. We also offer extras like invitations, thank yous, address labels, calendars, and magnets with your photo on them. Also consider making a professional album of the story of your courtship or your school years (etc). Please see the Extras above for pricing. Ask us for samples to see what we can do for you. We offer in-home consultations by appointment only.
Visit our contact page for more information on our portrait sessions. Be sure to let us know how many people will be in the photos, how many different locations you would like and where they are, and what extras you are interested in. Our basic portrait packages are above, but we can customize if you need a certain length of time or more locations. If you need suggestions on a location, just ask!
