My goal is to make your portrait session relaxed, enjoyable, never rushed and most importantly fun! I'm an on location, natural light photographer specializing in childrens portraiture. I will travel to a favorite outdoor location and prefer to utilize natural surroundings. My style is more candid. I like capturing people and special moments as they happen naturally. Please allow an hour for me to capture the personalities of your kiddos. HS Senior sessions will typically take longer.
When choosing what to wear, I've always said simplicity is best to create a timeless look, but I think what's best is what most reflects your style. If bold bright color reflects your personality, then by all means go with that. So, while simplicity is nice, just about anything goes! Things to avoid would be logos and busy patterns that can be distracting and take focus away from the subject. Comfort is very important, best to wear something you'll be able to move comfortably in. Denim and bare feet are a good choice and especially cute on kids. Special items such as toys, musical instruments, etc. add a nice personal touch. Lastly, when choosing colors it's always pleasing to choose colors that compliment each other.
If your planning photos for the holidays, Christmas, Mothers day, Fathers day, etc., please plan one or two months ahead of time to allow for processing, decision making and delivery.
Prior to your session, schedule a consult via phone to discuss the specific details so that we cover all bases and ensure that your session goes smoothly. Also, before the consult please take some time to view my website to ensure my photography style is a good fit for you.
I look forward to setting up a session with you!
