Philosophy
My approach to senior portraits is simple: take your dashing good looks, charming persona, and unique talents and infuse them with my creative vision, sense of style and ninja-like photographic skills for some wicked cool senior portraits. I then take your ridiculously awesome portraits and create equally amazing one-of-a-kind art pieces that will blow your mind. Promise.
From start to finish, your experience with me as a portrait artist will be like none other. While awesome photographs are part of the process, the entire experience is my focus. I always make it awesome. Not normal, not dull, not standard and especially not traditional. Your portraits will be real, authentic, and ridiculously awesome, and you will have a blast doing it.
Start!
It all starts with a phone call (or email). When you call, we will schedule 3 appointments:
First:
The Consultation
When you are ready to book your session, or if you have any questions, give me a call and I’ll set up a consultation meeting at the studio. There is no cost or obligation, just an hour to sit down and chat about you, your talents, hobbies, interests, achievements and ambitions and then I will plan how to capture all of that good stuff. Then we’ll pick a date when this will all go down, talk about locations, ideas, concepts, wardrobe, groupies (you can bring friends, or parents), pets and anything and everything that defines you as a senior.
Second:
The Session
Once we have completed the consultation, we’ll have booked a date for your portraits, and then the magic starts. The portrait session is normally 3-3.5 hours, but who’s counting the minutes? If we’re having a blast then we won’t stop! Come ready to have a LOT of fun, be relaxed and let me work my magic. I promise you will be blown away.
Third:
The Presentation
I’ll be sad to see the process come to an end, but, this is probably the BEST and MOST IMPORTANT part. Within 4-5 days of your portrait session you will come back to the studio and we’ll present your photographs on the large presentation system and ooh and ahh over all your awesome portraits (it’s OK to cry). This is the first time you’ll see your photographs (except maybe a sneak peek will be shared on facebook). This is the final meeting, so during the presentation we will narrow down to your favorite portraits and then make ALL decisions in regards to your portrait order. The presentation takes about 1.5 hours to finalize your package and I’ll be there to help you every step of the way. No pressure sales or lame products like other studios, just real artwork and crazy awesome portraits. I’ll make it as easy and awesome as possible. That’s it! In about 2-3 weeks you’ll be able to come back and pick up your order and start sharing your senior portrait goodness!
