What is your 'style' of photography?
It’s really a mix of candid and posed photos that is dependent on the moment. For the party everything we try to capture candid, spur-of-the-moment shots. For family shots and portraits we like to provide guidance and pose you for the best results.. Temple coverage is either candid on the day of the event or mocked-up if there are rules preventing shots the day of. In terms of color processing or filters we tend to avoid those ‘trends’ and keep skin tones natural.
What album options are available?
We offer only the finest quality custom flushmount, matted, or coffee-table books & albums. Our albums are stylish and durable and will truly last a lifetime without defect – we believe your album should become a family heirloom.
Albums are all designed in-house in consultation with the client. Album cover options include: leather, suede, metallic, with custom embossing or image inlay. Starting at 20 pages and expandable up to 100 pages.
Final album page-count is usually determined by the client after viewing proofs and making selections.
All album images are fully retouched. Typical album size is 12” x 12” and 40 - 50 pages.
Where can I view album designs and samples?
You can view albums here.
Can I get printed proofs?
We can provide printed proofs of your entire gallery or a selection of favorite images. Proofs are 4×6 with white-border, and are presented in a keepsake box.
Can I get digital images?

I'm interested in a portrait shoot too...
Our portrait shoots are very popular. Typically we shoot on location at a family house, beach, park, or city neighborhood and include family groups if required. A great presentation for these images is our signature hardcover signing-book.
We can also provide large or small printed images on foam-core for decorating the venue, a signing board or framed signing print, and other decorative options.
A location or in-studio portrait shoot starts from $495.
