RELATIONSHIPS! Starting with your initial call to the studio and before we capture your first image, we insist on spending time developing a personal relationship with you. These moments spent together during a Wedding, Portrait, or Video Planning Session allows us to become sensitive to your needs and purpose for having photographs created. A professional photographer/videoartist may display many credentials, but the most important one is the Mission Statement and Purpose telling you why he does business. Here is our promise to you:

"We will help you increase personal relationships between family, relatives, friends and acquaintances while capturing genuine moments with honesty and integrity". We call this philosophy "The Epitome of Excellence".

WEDDINGS... If you want the creativity and spontaneity of this style photography, we are masters of this technique. Also, because of our formal training in photography we know how to maintain a balance between photojournalism and traditional wedding poses. Therefore, we educate our clients on both styles, and then we let you decide your preference. To learn what our clients are saying about our wedding photography, visit our "Client's Speak" page.

PORTRAITS... Family, Children, Glamour, Seniors, Maternity, and Restoration. These are the companion services to our wedding photography. From infant to adult we treat each portrait session as a great opportunity to create unique images of you or your family that not only reflects your character and personality, but also reflects your taste in excellence and style. We highly recommend creating some of these images in your home or your family's favorite outdoor location.

VIDEO... Professional cinematic photography has become a growing need in capturing everyday events. We use the latest HD camera equipment and post-production editing software to document any event you have planned. Backed up with over a quarter century of photographic experience, we know what needs to be covered in any situation.
