Investment
I believe that portraits of your loved ones are an investment that has endless returns. The joy and confidence felt from seeing a portrait hung on a wall is felt day after day, and building your family's legacy is priceless.
​
We are lucky to live in a market saturated with photographers. This means that you will find pricing all across the board for
portrait photography, and there is the opportunity for everyone to find a good fit. Many people own DSLR cameras and enjoy photography. You might have a (neighbor, aunt, friend, etc.) that enjoys photography as a hobby or on a part-time basis. But there is a lot that goes into a professional photography business beyond owning equipment. ​A $100 photography session is going to differ from a $1000 session.
Here are some things to look for when considering entrusting someone with capturing your precious moments. Does he or she have:
-
Permits for a variety of coveted locations
-
Years of technical experience with equipment (manual shooting, lens choice, lighting, angles, framing)
-
Extensive knowledge in lighting any situation with natural or artificial light
-
Experience connecting with high school-aged teens to help them feel comfortable and relaxed as well as with children to make it fun
-
Insurance to protect all parties
-
Knowledge and experience in guiding you to achieve natural-looking poses and expressions
-
Professional editing software and gallery hosting
-
Dual slot professional camera bodies to protect against memory card failure
-
On and off-site file backup
-
Location knowledge for the changing Colorado seasons
-
Relationships with professional print labs
-
Nationally published images
-
An established and trusted brand

In addition to all of the points listed above, I have a passion that makes me put my heart and soul into every one of your images.
