FAMILY SESSIONS
Family group photography should start with a
personal consultation, to allow us to capture a
timeless heirloom of your family for generations to enjoy. Discus the style (casual or dressy), as well as colors you wish to incorporate to make your family look its very best. They are as important in creating the look of a professional photo as our professional lighting and posing. Use solid colors and try to avoid patterns and designs in your clothing. When your group consists of multiple members of all ages and sizes, the coordination plays a very important part in the way your portrait is viewed.
Our indoor studio can accommodate comfortably up to 6 members in a family group, the outdoor set can be used for larger groups, weather permitting. Your family portrait will be most meaningful and memorable when done at your family's home or property. A local park, beach, or another venue may also be good option for your family group setting.
FASHION, GLAMOUR & BOUDOIR
This may be a
once in a lifetime investment and treat for you, so you will want to ensure you come to a
trusted and experienced business in this field. Successful boudoir or glamour session starts with a free consultation, in person, over the phone or through email. With this interview we learn of the purpose for the shoot, maybe there was a request by your partner, a surprise gift for a birthday, anniversary, wedding… Sometimes it is just “…before I get too old...“reason and (quite frequently) changes in appearance - weight loss or cosmetic surgery. These reasons help us learn your concerns of what the pictures may reveal or emphasize.
Studio sessions are created with a variety of backgrounds and elegant sets to compliment your look. We recommend bringing extra clothing choices, shoes and accessories for best fit. Some items are available at the studio. Consider having your make up, hair and nails professionally done before the session.
Your image poses are composed to flatter your body shape, size and favorite features; there's lighting and posing to reveal or conceal, as well as great
airbrushing abilities. Some clients may require more direction and guidance than others, but most relax and start to really enjoy the
special attention.
Retouching is one of the key elements in boudoir and glamour photography. Some poses and products require simple and natural retouching; while others may require some
body sculpting or
glamour skin treatment. The product choices vary from gift prints, wall portraits, canvas wraps, calendars and albums to creative slideshows and more. They can be purchased A La Carte, or incorporated into one of our valuable packages.
