Great portraits result from trusting partnerships.  The photographer must have a sincere interest in and concern for their subject, and the subject must trust the photographer enough to reveal their personalities and emotions.  Any portrait session not based upon such a relationship is merely a technical exercise in the taking of pictures.  We work to establish such relationships by discussing with you our style and how can tailor that style to complement your unique interests and needs.  It is through such mutual understanding and enthusiasm that we can achieve the greatest technical and artistic success.

Our work is primarily photo-artisan in style.  What this means for you is that we 'flavor' your interests with our expertise in location, lighting, and composition.  Composition is particularly important and is one of the major elements that sets photographic styles apart.  We do not invest much time in traditional, symmetric compositions as they result in aesthetically bland, formulaic results lacking in individuality.  Our style generally yields asymmetric images with a natural, capture-the-moment feel (sometimes described as photojournalistic).  Our commitment and expertise in composition combined with our personal interest in you, result in artistic, aesthetically pleasing images you will treasure for a lifetime.
