Editing & FINE ART PHOTOGRAPHY


one thing i really enjoy is: editing.


I shoot all my images in RAW format. Great, what does that mean to you?  It means I have a lot of control over how the final image looks.  The real beauty and magic happens through the alchemy of in camera capture and post process combine at the hands of an artist.

Sometimes the perfect portrait takes a little more work


One of the benefits of hiring a photographer like me is we can create a little magic. I'd like to reassure you that your dogs safety is my number one priority. I prefer we have our companions leashed while we are on location taking photos. Let me give you a sneak peak at how I can work with you, your precious family members and leashes.
