I offer a completely custom experience. As a professional photographer of over twenty years, I bring my years of experience and creative mindset to each session. We begin with an in-person consultation where we discuss your needs, review display options and investment. I really want to get to know you and get a sense of your personality and preferences at this time. I do my best to make everyone I photograph feel comfortable and relaxed. I will guide you through all of this!

During our meeting, we’ll discuss location possibilities and wardrobe options and we’ll collaborate creatively – I want you to be involved in the process. Also during this time I hope to meet all who will be photographed (including the family pets), so I’m not a stranger the day of the session.

If meeting in person isn’t feasible, I can arrange a virtual consultation via Zoom.

The day of the session we will follow the ‘blueprint” we drafted during our consultation, but I like to be open to serendipity.

I have the lighting equipment to photograph indoors or out. Time of year and weather conditions won’t be an issue and we’ll make contingency plans during the Consultation.

I do my best to stay on schedule and understand that children and pets have limited attention spans.

Next, we’ll schedule an in-person appointment to review your images plus album and wall art presentations. This typically takes place one to two weeks after the session.

During this appointment, we’ll make final selections for framing, finishing and album production. Upon payment, the order will be placed.

My professional vendors have varying delivery schedules. I’ll be able to estimate a delivery date when I place the order.

If you live within the Boyne City area, I will personally deliver your order to you. It means so much to see your reactions and to make sure you’re thrilled with your artwork.

I can drop ship directly to you if it makes more sense and is easier for you.
