 I can not help but be an artist, and photography is my main medum. Photography is the best work that I can do because: it is all about the person in front of me... 

    There is no other 'art' more beautiful than:

 God made man, and woman.
     We are so complex, and I really do believe a snow flake is just a "flake"
      there is no comparison to the human being. So, I shoot them! ha ha...

    Truelly, brides are my favorate for many reasons: they are all beautiful. Some take a lot more effort however. 
That is where the fun starts for me, 
  I love the process of getting your very best portraits.
   "Your best you" should at least happen the day of your wedding...
 I enjoy the challange of getting the best possible "YOU". 
  I can not say this enough, you are the "star of the day". 
   That's why you have maids, he,he.

         Hats off to the bride I remember:
                            who cooked the Wedding Denner,
                                        wile in her dress.
                            PLEASE don't even think about it!

 That being said, this is why I love weddings so much. 
   I love watching familes comming together for a celabration. 
But most of all I love the fact God made man for woman.
Just like a marriage, when the right things come together
 it is a gift from God.

         Frist "merical-Jesus did" ? (at a wedding...)
               Dah, I am a Christan...

 I only do Christan weddings.
                             I specialize in "The Christan Wedding".
                           Because LOVE begins with with HIM...

 When I became a photographer that was stuck in my mind.
           So,  a real smil is best. I am funny enough to get you to laugh,
        and experanced enough to get a more relaxed and beautiful smile.              

 Being a dislex person/artist and with a macanical aptatude
                  tested twice off the chart really was a gift I was given.
                       I apply that form and ballance to all my efforts.
                      Then, I get the best expressions, because I can...

      Every one "in the business" asks me "why don't you charge more?
I feel this way, Do I want your mony more than to try and just be a blessing?
              The answer is easy, "Blessings are really valuable".
     I charge what I think is more than a fair price for all my brides.
                   The real blessing is the copy right I give away.
              This is the bread & butter for many photographers.
           But when even one of your family members can not afford
                                        a print from your wedding.
                           NO!!! It is time to help brides and their family.
                                  Personally, I would have to hard a time
                        holding back your wedding pictures for your Grany.
                            Sadly I have seen it happen too many times.

Engagement Session

What is an engagement session? You’ve seen the wedding blogs, the bridal magazines, the professional looking shots on Facebook of your engaged friends laughing and kissing each other with the sun setting behind them. It’s officially called engagement photography, but essentially it’s a just a chance for a professional photographer to capture two people in love who wants to share it with the world, or even just between themselves. More than that, it’s an opportunity for you to work with your photographer for the first time. It’s an opportunity for you to see how I shoot and for me to get to know you better as a couple. If you haven’t had a photographer move within inches of you to take a photograph, it can be a bit intimidating at first. It’s a good way for me to help you get comfortable in front of the camera so that there are no surprises on your big day. These sessions can be as fun and elaborate as you’d like to make it, so at the end of the day, I’d like for you to not only remember the day you had a photo shoot, but also the day you had a great date…and had a photographer tag along. These beautiful photographs have been used to create “save-the-date” cards, on the wedding websites, announcements and even incorporated into wedding day decor pieces. Check out my portfolio.



Styles of portraiture.

There are many different techniques for portrait photography. Often it is desirable to capture the subject's eyes and face in sharp focus while allowing other less important elements to be rendered in a soft focus.

Additionally another style such as head shot has come out of the portraiture technique and had become a style on its very own.

Approaches to portraiture.

There are essentially four approaches that can be taken in photographic portraiture the constructionist, environmental, candid and creative approaches. Each approach has been used over time for different reasons be they technical, artistic or cultural. The constructionist approach is when the photographer in their portraiture constructs an idea around the portrait happy family, romantic couple, and the trustworthy executive. It is the approach used in most studio and social photography. It is also used extensively in advertising and marketing when an idea has to be put across.

Environmental pictures

Can have good historical and social significance as primary sources of information.

The candid

approach is where people are photographed without their knowledge and going about their daily business.

While this approach taken by the paparazzi

is criticized and frowned upon for obvious reasons, less invasive and exploitative candid photography has given the world superb and important images of people in various situations and places over the last century. As with environmental photography, candid wedding photography is important as a historical source of information about people.

The Creative Approach

Is where digital manipulation (and formerly darkroom manipulation) is to produce wonderful pictures of people. It is becoming a major form of portraiture as these techniques become more widely understood and used.

Classic focal length

Classic focal length in the range 80–135mm on 135 film formats and about 150-400mm on large format, which historically is first in photography. Such a field of view provides a flattering perspective distortion when the subject is framed to include their head and shoulders. Wider angle lenses (shorter focal length) require that the portrait be taken from closer (for an equivalent field size), and the resulting perspective distortion yields a relatively larger nose and smaller ears, which is considered unflattering and imp-like. Wide-angle lenses – or even fisheye lenses – may be used for artistic effect, especially to produce a grotesque image. Conversely, longer focal lengths yield greater flattening because they are used from further away. This makes communication difficult and reduces rapport. They may be used, however, particularly in fashion photography, but longer lengths require a loudspeaker or walkie-talkie to communicate with the model or assistants. In this range, the difference in perspective distortion between 85mm and 135mm is rather subtle. All me for examples and analysis.

Speed

Speed-wise, fast lenses (wide aperture) are preferred, as these allow shallow depth of field (blurring the background), which helps isolate the subject from the background and focus attention on them. This is particularly useful in the field, where one does not have a back drop behind the subject, and the background may be distracting. However, extremely wide apertures are less frequently used, because they have a very shallow depth of field and thus the subject's face will not be completely in focus.

Soft focus

Finally, soft focus is sometimes a desired effect, particularly in glamour photography where the "gauzy" look may be considered flattering. The Canon EF 135mm f/2.8 with Soft focus is an example of a lens designed with a controllable amount of soft focus.

Portrait lenses

Portrait lenses are often relatively inexpensive, because they can be built simply, and are close to the normal range. The cheapest portrait lenses are normal lenses (50mm), used on a cropped sensor. For example, the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II is the least expensive Canon lens.
