Portrait and Wedding Photography
Some moments in our lives are priceless. From the excitement of your engagement and anticipation of your wedding day to the pride of your children's graduation, we want to help you preserve your memories forever. I specialize in documentary, "photojournalistic" style of photography in which I try to bring out the true personality of the subject in his or her environment. I can also set up a more formal portrait if preferred.
Some of the moments and themes you may want to memorialize forever:
- Engagement
- Mother-to-be
- Newborn and infant
- Birthday
- Graduation
- Career milestones
- Holidays
- ...and just to celebrate another year to share with family and friends!
Standard portrait fee is $85 and covers about three to four hours at the location(s) of your choice. A hand-picked selection of photos provided in an online web album allowing you and your family and friends to order reasonably-priced prints of the ones you like most, à la carte. Many other specialty products are available including fine art canvas prints, screen savers, coffee mugs—your imagination is virtually the only limit!
Your wedding package includes a beautiful album of hand-picked photographs which tell the story of your special day. A larger selection of photos is provided in an online web album allowing you and your family and friends to order the prints you like most à la carte. Formal portraits of the wedding party are included on request but the true essence of your day will unfold in the candid and posed documentary shots. The base fee is $1,375 which covers all the events on your wedding day; rehearsal dinner coverage is an additional $185. This is your day—I'm here to help you live your dream!
All our prints are processed at a professional lab and guaranteed for life. Prices listed are for reference only and subject to change. These costs represent events in the DFW metroplex area; however, I love to travel and would be glad to accomodate your needs (for an additional cost) anywhere in the world!
Photo Retouching and Restoration
From retouching badly-lit snapshots to restoring faded photographs of your great-great-grandparents to creating surreal worlds for your family to inhabit, we can help. With over twelve years of experience in bringing out the most in every digital photo, I can help give your memories that extra-special spark you're looking for.
Custom digital services vary for each photo. Typical prices range from $10-15 for basic services such as color correction, removing skin blemishes, and removing dust and scratches, to $50-100 for extensive custom retouching including extensive removal of unwanted objects, adding objects from other photos (photo-collage), digital painting, etc. (also includes restoration of badly damaged photos.) Bulk scanning services are also available for as low as $0.20 per photo.
Prints for custom retouching are usually an archival giclée print; however, a standard photographic print may be chosen as appropriate. Both are high-quality professional products and are guaranteed for life.
Memories...for a Lifetime
Making your moments last a lifetime is something we take seriously. All prints are guaranteed for life. If for any reason over the lifetime of the print it becomes damaged or destroyed, simply contact us for a replacement free of charge.
One of the side benefits of our fully digital process is the ability to archive original photographs at no loss of quality indefinitely. Gone are the days of boxes and drawers full of negatives and slides which slowly fade over time. Our best practices for backing up and storing our "digital negatives" ensure that many years into the future we will be ready to fulfill any orders at a moment's notice.
