ng quality within a budgetary arm's reach. In a time where everyone owns a camera, that most of them talk on as well, charging extravagant rates or fees doesn't seem to be the best choice for those trying to get the most from their hard earned money. It's not like photographers are spending hours in darkrooms developing images from film anymore and all the advances in technology have made "taking a picture" something my kids have done since they were 3 years old. Although getting the most out of an image does take skills, that not everyone has, and there's a lot of work that's done between wrapping a photo shoot and getting the proofs to the client. One of my goals has always been to keep my rates fair and realistic for my clients. I'd rather have more clients than to only cater to affluent ones and I think over charging tends to inspire and promote everyone's willingness to settle for their own camera skills or that of a friend. But I still believe and have always said, "Anyone with a camera can take a picture. When you need a photograph, see a photographer." So, my goals are simple. Achieve or surpass my clients expectations, while keeping the prices affordable, capturing images that are as beautiful as they are. If you're looking to do just that... let's talk.
