My approach is to photograph in a relaxed manner that sets the stage naturally. I offer a little guidance, encourage you to focus on each other, and I artistically capture your passion and emotion. There are some look-at-the-camera-and-smile photographs, but it's not overdone. My method is a fun and comfortable way to be photographed. My relaxed photography style timelessly captures the emotion, passion, and spontaneity of you and your family. I create both traditional portraits and fun, candid, natural and interactive photographs that show everyone's personality and relationship.

He used his pre-wedding time to go back & forth between the Bride's and Groom's Rooms for photos. As the Mother of the Bride, Ken and I had a telephone conversation and he told me exactly what he needed ready to photograph as soon as he arrived on the wedding day. Having those items prepared helped him to stay on schedule and get all the pre-wedding pictures taken so that we started the wedding on time. Ken was very accommodating with special requests from both of the Mothers, because we wanted photos taken of our extended family groups. Ken had a prepared list of the extra photos that we wanted, and he methodically went down the list. The great thing was that we never felt rushed by Ken at any point during the entire day. Ken has a calm and friendly demeanor and it showed!! HIRE HIM... he'll do a great job for your wedding or special event too!

Booked a mini-session (30-minute photo shoot) with Amber to take our first formal family photos…read moreever. I was a little nervous with a spirited, almost 3-year-old and 8-month-old who was nearing bedtime. It's been so hard for me to find time to do anything after work so I was already stressed trying to plan the family around this narrow window of time. We were also playing by ear with rain consistently in the forecast, so I was nervous about the conditions. Amber communicated with me via text consistently so I knew where her mind was at and miraculously, the sun came out and did so radiantly! It was like a moment of heaven and I wish I could have stayed forever. Clearly, this wasn't her first rodeo! We started promptly and Amber was very productive with our time, guiding us with cues for poses, working in the moment with our little tornadoes, and making the most of our family dynamic. Going home, my hubby told me how happy he was that I arranged this for our fam and it was really validating because it meant to me, that he also felt at ease and happy with how our shoot went. More surprisingly, Amber turned around our photos at lightning speed! Honestly couldn't decide which photos to pick from, so I'm glad that Amber included as many as she could! This goes a long way with me as a busy mom who appreciates the little details and nuances in the extras. Now I've got much-needed, BEAUTIFUL, updated photos to hang on my walls AND the most beautiful captured memories to cherish forever.

If you've never worked with butterflies, I can tell you that they have the attention span of a fruit fly and are apt to fly away in a blink. But Doug was willing to accept the challenge. He arrived exactly on time for our appointment and already knew a perfect location for the subject. I used as many tricks as I could think of to make my little friends cooperative and then hoped for the best. We had SO much fun, with as many as 10 butters in some of the photos. Doug was creative and easy to work with. He gave me everything I had hoped for and much more. The photos are nothing short of spectacular and I couldn't be happier!
