Capturing the Real You

The Experience

Lifestyle sessions outdoors or in the comfort of your home.

When it comes time for capturing those special moments, we are happy to meet you at your favorite location or venue.  If you would prefer, we also have a studio in Mesa, AZ with backdrops and lighting.  Photographs can be taken in both color and black and white.

How it Works

How it Works

Step 01

Getting comfortable

We want to make sure your forever photos show you and everyone in the pictures as they are.  We will first set up a meeting where we can learn more about you and the type of photographs you are looking to have done.  We also spend time learning more about your personality so we can make the effort to let “you” shine through. We can also finalize the time and location of your photo shoot.

Step 02

Being your beautiful selves

This is where you do what you do best, be you.  If there are any props you want included during the session, please make sure to bring them with you.  Make sure to let me know during our initial meeting if you are going to want any photographs taken during the getting ready process, such as before a wedding.

Step 03

Editing your photos

We do very minimal editing as we are trying to capture the true essence of the moment.  Our goal is to document your event rather than re-creating it.  There are photographers out there who will make you look like a piece of art, merging and melting shapes, but it doesn’t show you and your significant others as you are.  We learned a long time ago that the most profound editing is done by choosing the best photographs.  If there is a minor flaw, we will do our best to improve it when possible.

Step 04

Choosing memories to treasure

After your event or photo shoot, we will do a final session where you will be able to choose which photos you would like to keep.  We will then give you a time frame for when we can have those completed for you, printed and/or digitally.

FAQ

Here are the most frequently asked questions.
If there’s anything else you’d like to know, please Reach Out

  • What will be our final price?
    This really depends on the type of event and how much time you need. Another consideration will be if you have us help you with the printing process. Please contact us and set up your complimentary consultation.
  • How far in advance do we need to book?
    The sooner you can contact us the better. We want to make sure we can be there for you. However, we do try to accommodate last minute books when we can.
  • Do you charge by the hour?
    No, but clearly the time actually taking the photographs is figured into the price. We also take into consideration the amount of time it will take to have the photographs ready for you. Please contact us and set up your complimentary consultation.
  • How much do you charge for prints?
    It depends. Size, media type, and amount needed will determine the price of the prints. The ability to purchase additional prints will be available for 5-10 years. Please contact us and set up your complimentary consultation.

Let's Get You Booked

If you are calling between 9:30 am and 9:30 pm Monday - Saturday, and we don’t answer, please leave a message.  We do our best to return calls within 30 minutes.  On Sundays it might take me a little longer.

 

As we have many events occurring all of the time, the sooner you can contact us to reserve time for your special event or photo shoot the better.  If available, we try to help out by booking last minute shoots.  If it is last minute, the best way to contact us is by phone.
