Engagement/Wedding
The walk down the aisle.
The first kiss.
The first dance.
Your wedding.
It will become one of the most memorable days of your life.
Maternity/Newborn
Congratulations on expecting a baby!
In the first few days, your heart will be filled with so much love you could burst!
They will be some of the best yet hardest days you'll ever experience in parenthood.
As time goes by, the days turn into nights and honestly you're not sure if you're coming or going!
Family
Family sessions are so very special!
My goal when photographing your family session is to document the love and connection you have with each other.
These sessions can be done in studio or at an outdoor location.
Graduation/Events
We believe that the senior year is a monumental milestone.
So it deserves to be captured with professionally photographed memories.
All events should be captured to remember always.
LIGHT
Photography is light. Without it, you couldn’t take pictures in the first place, let alone good ones.
The quality of light changes from photo to photo, but, in every case, it’s what gives your images their underlying structure. You can’t get any more fundamental than that.
You’ve probably seen photos with beautiful light – photos which otherwise would have been somewhat ordinary. What is it about light that makes it so important to the ultimate quality of your photos?
Character.
At its simplest, light is emotion. The feel of your photograph will be vastly different depending upon the lighting conditions: harsh light, gentle light, warm light, cool light, and anything in between. Each type conveys a different emotional message, changing around the character of your final image. Although there are other ways to convey emotion in your photo as well, light is one of the most powerful.
S U B J E C T
When most of us take a photo, we do so because something caught our eye.
That “something” is, unsurprisingly, your subject.
If you’re describing a photo to someone else, the subject is probably the first thing you’ll tell them. “This is a photo of a mountain with snow blowing through the air.” “This is a photo of a whale I saw last year.” “This is a photo of my friend.”
COMPOSITION
Finally, the third crucial element of every photograph is your composition.
Composition is, quite simply, the arrangement of the items in your photograph. It encompasses your camera position, the relationships between the elements of a photo, and the subjects that you emphasize, deemphasize, or exclude completely. Composition is how you tell your story.
A “good” composition is one that tells your story effectively, without any distractions or confusion. Your viewers don’t have to puzzle through a convoluted mess to figure out why you captured that photo.
