What do I look for in a photographer?
During a large event (such as a wedding), a professional will know what to expect and will guide you and your guests as necessary throughout the event.  Courtesy and competence, a great “eye” and being “everywhere at once” are signs of excellence.  Choose someone with whom you feel comfortable and  who is easy to communicate with.
If necessary, I can help with the pace of the event to keep it running smoothly.

Where are you located?
My home and studio are located in Marysville.  Much of my work is done on location.  My outdoor portrait sessions are done in a park or a location preferred by the client. 

Do I get the “negatives”?
Yes.  My rates include digital files on CD or DVD.

What planning is necessary?
For a portrait shoot, we will discuss clothing, props, time of day and location beforehand to assure the look you want.  A little planning will go a long way and communication is key .  For a wedding or event, it  is essential that you provide me with a list of special combinations of people you desire photographs of.  I can e-mail you a list which you may personalize to suit your event.  This list, in addition to a  general itinerary of the day’s event and notes about special guests are very helpful.  Details of the event, such as time of day, lighting in or outside the venue will assist me  greatly.

What are your prices?
Please contact me via e-mail or phone for a quote for your photographic session or event.

Do you do retouching?
Your proofs do not generally include retouching; however, retouching is included in all custom portraits.
