portraits - photographs of people
Whether you are looking for:
- a classic individual portrait
- baby pictures
- a photo of the extended family
- or shots at a family event
you'll feel very comfortable with our friendly, low key service.
We enjoy meeting people and children don't seem to mind us either! As you can see from our pet photos, we get along with animals pretty well too.
We will come to you!
We will come to your home, office or preferred location. Based on our discussion with you, we'll bring the necessary lighting and backgrounds.
Individuals and small groups may choose to visit our studio.
Many people enjoy photos created in natural setting. Outdoors shots can offer lots of scope for creativity. We'll be glad to shoot at a location of your choice or we can recommend some beautiful settings near Lake Simoce.
See and choose your photos immediately!
You'll be fully involved in our "interactive digital shoot". We'll display your photos on our computer for your review and comment, then take additional shots if required until we're sure you've got the shots you want.
You may prefer not to make you decision immediately. In that case, we'll prepare a CD-ROM containing proofs of all the shots we take during the photo session.
Have some fun!
Try different poses, break the mold.

photo retouching
For each image you select, we'llretouch away blemishes and other distracting elements. For group photos, we'll often do "head transplants" to ensure that everyone looks their best.
