Where did you go to get "portraits" last time?

They were good enough, right?

Or did they turn out looking like everyone else's photos...
Perhaps you didn't even know the name of the "professional" who last took your photo...

Do you really want your images to come out looking like a badly photoshopped advertisement?

Or maybe you bought photos of your little one, and they dressed her up in tacky costumes and props and slathered her in makeup to "make her look beautiful."

Isn't she beautiful every day?
Or do you love her more now that she looks like someone else?

YOU DESERVE BETTER: CONTACT ME TODAY

Imagine this instead...

You make contact with a photographer, and they call you by name. They care about what kind of art you enjoy, your family history, and the decor you have in your home.

They ask about any insecurities you may have, and it feels OK because they're really listening to you. They help you choose timeless couture, the hairstyle that suits you best, and they advise you politely and discreetly regarding undergarments and skincare. Then they lead you through the process so that on the day of your shoot, you maintain your poise and dignity.

You're ready, you hire them.

The day of the photoshoot arrives. You're greeted appropriately. What drink would you like? And snacks? They're ready for you. The studio is private. Every step of the way, the photographer and his team are guiding you and helping you to become confident in front of the camera. You work together on positions and angles, and he coaches you so that you look and feel your best. You're feeling confident now. Confidence is beautiful.

Why Portraits are Important

Being a shy and relatively introverted person, having my photo taken is an uncomfortable experience most of the time. However, two things I recently heard and talked about with other people have changed my mind.

Firstly, in this day and age, your personal image is very important, and your face is the ultimate expression of your image. Do you really want a snapshot taken at a party to represent you, or be how others view you when they see you online? If you don't commission the portrait that you want representing who you are, then someone else is going to do it for you, and they don't always have your best interests at heart.

Secondly, until recently I had more physical photographs of my grandfather and grandmother than I did of my son. I still don't have any good printed photographs of myself or my wife (we're working on that!). Computers break, hard drives fail, and phones get broken or become obsolete. Digital files cannot be the only version of you that exists. I want to leave a legacy for my son and his family to remember, not some janky old device. I can do the same for you.

Get physical photographs of you and your family. Make sure you have a good photographer take your picture, so you can represent yourself faithfully online. Take control of these things and you won't be disappointed!
