About
Hi, and thank you for interest in my photography! I am a Mother of 2 young children and happily married to my husband for 6-1/2 years. I discovered my passion for photography back in college many moons ago when I took a photography class and have continued to learn through trial and error. I love capturing special moments in time that seem to fly by so quickly. I specialize in maternity, newborn and children’s photos. I am not a fan of sitting people in front of a background and telling them to give me a fake smile. I love photographing people in their element and where they are comfortable. This means in their home or a special outdoor location. I use natural and available light only. At this time, I do not have a studio location. Instead, I make my client’s homes my studio. This makes the photos unique to each client. I also use parks and gardens or the client’s yard as my outdoor studio. Each session lasts as long as it takes to get good shots taken. Especially when I am doing a shoot with newborns and very young children, there will be time allowed for nursing, cuddling and regrouping. Photo shoots with older children may not take as long, but are certainly not rushed and will last as long as it takes to make sure there are some great shots to work with. I also do family photos and senior portraits and use the same concept in photographing either one.
Each session fee includes my time, all retouching of the photos and a CD of the full resolution photos. This means you get to print whatever you like and use the photos however you like. By your having possession of the full resolution photos you have the rights to those photos. I do retain the right to use the photos in any advertising I so choose. I will not sell the photos of my client’s without a model release form signed by the client or client’s parents.
Prices are subject to change at any time, however I strive to make photographs of your loved ones affordable.
Please feel free to contact me or email me with any questions you may have.
