Images for You

"Authenticity and elegance never go out of style."

Makeup artist and female model

I can accommodate however you want to be photographed, wherever you want to be photographed and with whomever you want to be photographed. You can plan it as a “Girls’ Day Out” with champagne and hors d’oeuvres. Or we can create a “GQ” magazine session for the guys in my studio or outside of it with their prized motorcycle, classic car, or boat. Your Ultimate Portrait Experience is really all about you.

Portrait photography has changed since the “glamour” style portraits of the past. Today, it has become more “Fashion Magazine Style”. My fashion-inspired, magazine-quality portraits and team of hair, makeup and styling artists insure all of my clients look and feel like a model for a day.
