First and foremost, I want each of my sessions to be fun for my clients. I'll ask you to make yourself at home in my home, kick off your shoes and relax. My sessions are all about going with the flow. If your little man is shy and a bit reserved, I might take a good amount of time to get to know him and put him at ease before we begin. If your daughter is happy-go-lucky and ready to go, I just might rush you straight into the studio to get going before she wastes all those smiles on getting to know me. In other words, your child's personality and mood will have a huge impact on how I approach your session. I will follow his/her lead in determining how and when to photograph. When you book your session, I will mail you a packet of information with suggestions for what to wear, what to bring and more specifically what to expect during your session.
3B) I offer three types of sessions to meet your individual needs: Artisan, Digital and Masterpiece Sessions.
ARTISAN SESSIONS are for clients who want the whole experience and who hope to achieve the broad scope of a variety of images and beautifully finished photographs produced to your exacting standards. (more information)

3B-3) MASTERPIECE COMMISSIONS
If you wish to create a truly unique artwork, installation or conceptual portrait of you, your children, your family, the
masterpiece session allows for an endless array of opportunities to create art. If you have a specific idea or a desire to
create something truly original, masterpiece commission rates vary from project to project depending on the time, skill and
materials required to achieve the finished work. Masterpiece sessions allow for travel (domestic and international) on request.
