Portrait Experience
January 24, 2010Who needs a sitting fee?! We love to have fun and run around – no sitting here!
All portrait sessions are an experience. Our session fees are $150 and include a pre-shoot consultation, a power-packed 1-to-3-hour photo session, private online viewing gallery, watermarked proofs to share online with family and friends.
This is a great choice for families, individuals want to create their personal fashion portfolio, high school seniors, pet portraits, musicians, mommys-to-be, and couples who opt for simply the engagement session.

Location.
Let’s work together to find that ‘perfect’ location. A peaceful wheat field, abandoned building, or busy metal shop all have their own appeals and opportunities for a dynamic and colorful backdrop. In addition, we can transport our studio set to just about any location – provided there isn’t a ton of wind! So we like to keep it real, click away while having fun and enjoy the beauty of the outdoors whenever possible!
In our pre-shoot consultation discussion (email, over the phone, or over a coffee in-person), we can further discuss location options.
Our Style.
We like to capture our style of photography as Fresh. Fun. Real. If you’re looking for a photographer that captures the quirky, funny and sometimes awkward moments, then I’m your man…and woman!
Our style represents you! It’s not about finding the perfect pose, but rather helping you find a way to relax so we can capture that split second when you forget we are shooting you. We like to view the photoshoot as a fun playdate rather than a stodgy photoshoot with glaring lights, shouting and way too much direction.
What can I really expect?
You can expect an energetic time slot full of jumping around, laughing and making funny faces. We capture images of you being you, doing what you like to do and engaging in moments that allow us to document you. From start to finish, our job is to capture you and your family’s story.
What to wear? What to wear?
Mechanic meets diva. Wear clothes you feel comfortable in and that identify you. Avoid super small or busy patterns and super-tight fitted and restrictive clothing. Bring a few different outfit changes so we can accessorize and change it up if necessary. If you have a favorite coffee cup, hat, baseball – you name it – bring it and we’ll find a way to incorporate it. We encourage bright colors, fun accessories – colorful shoes, boots, scarves, hats, hairpieces, belts, glasses, etc. If you’re not sure, ask!
Our photos catch that moment of surprise and the element of happiness. We want to capture you being you, not you being us. Get it, you being us??
