Special Events

If an event is special to you I have a camera
for it. When you or family members reach a milestone make sure it's well preserved. During events such as Prom, Grandma's 80th Birthday Party, a Graduation or a Family Reunion, you want everyone to enjoy it, not running around with their phone trying to document it while not being really present. Let me do the leg work, use my professional expertise and camera, and catch the candid moments as well as get some more composed photos. You will receive a galley that you can send out to everyone involved to download the photos that are special to them.

 Senior Portraits

I am not going to lie, senior portraits are my favorite sessions. What I enjoy most is getting
to know my grads and putting together a customized photo session designed just for them. Your senior session is a special event all on its own and it should be fun and memorable, not awkward and stressful. I will guide you through the process with tips and suggestions on choosing the perfect outfits, locations and poses that truly express who you are at this wonderful time in your life. We can include just about anything that is inspiring to you from sports to sports cars, an instrument, favorite book or movie theme. If fishing or dance is your happy place, let's do it! Duluth and the surrounding area offers so many great locations as a backdrop for everything under the sun so the sky's the limit. I also create commitment graphics that can be added on to any package.

Style Sessions

What exactly is a Style Session? A style session
is a professional, editorial style photo-shoot.
It is for anyone at any age who wants to have professional photos taken of themselves in favorite outfits at locations that reflect their personal style. It's a special time carved out just for you to look and feel fabulous. It can include
a treasured item or a cultural obsession such as an automobile, instrument, motorcycle, sports equipment or Jane Austen. Style sessions can have a theme or just be amazing photos of you preserving a certain time in your life. We can create just about anything you can dream up! It can be part fantasy but 100 percent you.

Weddings and Engagements

Your wedding should be everything you ever
dreamed of and your photos should reflect this. I specialize in portraits and sports photography so I joke that weddings are a perfect combination of both. The pace is fast and you need to catch moments that only happen once, along with the more thought out composed photos. I capture intimate moments, the traditional parts, candid surprises, wedding party portraits and whatever you and your partner feel is important. My job is to get to know you as a couple and understand your vision for your wedding then let you enjoy your special day. Engagement sessions are where I get to know a couple and help them feel comfortable in front of the camera so everything flows naturally on the big day. They can be a la carte or included with your wedding package.

Family Portraits

Get the gang together and let everyone be in
the photo! Whether it’s a milestone like the first grandchild, a grandparent turning 80 or you just want to have beautiful photos of you and your family. If you're looking for a more intimate mother daughter or nutty extended family members session I can do exactly what you want. I am gifted at getting people organized, while putting them at ease in order to look their very best. Professional family portraits tell a story while preserving memories and your session becomes a special memory of its own. You’ll receive high resolution photos for posting, framing or holiday cards. Family portraits are an investment that can be passed down through generations. I have packages for more intimate sessions or larger groups that can fit your budget.

Pet Portraits

My favorite people are animals! Pets are such
a large part of our lives and members of our families. Some of our fondest memories are
with our pets and we include them in just about everything. We even go as far as to dress them up during Halloween, so why not have professional photos taken of them? From the moment we bring a pet home they add to our lives giving endless unconditional love. A pet photo session can just be of your pet or you and or a family member with your pet. We can go to the beach and take action shots of your dog catching a frisbee, a favorite park or have a session in your backyard. Contact me and tell me all about your pet and what makes them so wonderful and I'll tell you how I can capture that in photos.
