Personalized photography services for people and pets

Our goal is expressing you, uniquely! Whether in the studio or outdoors / on location, will capture your essence naturally, without affected posing, to create keepsake portraits to be treasured for a lifetime...and beyond. We take the time to listen to your ideas and photographic goals, then together create the images that express you, uniquely. Portrait sessions are unrushed, in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. We offer guidance to help you realize the vision you have for your portrait, and are happy to discuss ideas with you prior to, and during, your session. A session length up to two hours (including clothing changes) allows time to capture the unique you.

portraits are suitable for many occasions, such as:

We offer several packages to suit your photography needs. Whether commemorating a special event, revitalizing your portfolio, creating a portrait just for fun, or even updating your online personal ad, let us use our experience to produce individualized fine art portraits that express your essence. We love to hear any ideas you may have as far as clothing, your own props, photos with friends, family or pets, and/or a location of your choosing. We are dedicated to helping you create the images that you’ve always wanted of yourself or loved ones.

If your portrait will be a present for someone, please plan ahead!
