and can be any combination of poses and/or people.
Your unedited high resolution images are given to you digitally via Google Drive and typically are ready within 48 hours.
You also receive a copyright release that gives you the rights to your photos.
On average a typical family session will have 50+ images for you to enjoy.
Pretty easy huh?
A note about why I don't edit my images:
Why don't I edit my photos?
The truth... I absolutely can't stand sitting in front of the computer. I want to be out in the fresh air capturing memories! Instead of taking images and then altering them on the computer I instead shoot manually, utilize filters, and I am extremely careful about my lighting sources. I work very hard at capturing every single image as creatively and sharply focused as possible at the time of capture. I can assure you that this is not an easy task. There is a surmountable amount of pressure to know that I can't "fix" an image in photoshop. I can certainly see that editing can be a good thing for some artists but I simply choose to try and capture exactly how people look in the moment with the gorgeous light that comes naturally through my lens. To me, cameras have very large brains and if you pick them apart and study how all of the pieces work, you can find all of the elements to make a natural looking photo that happens in the camera itself without having to alter an image. I get asked, "What about this image, or that image? Those are edited, right?" No they are not, I can assure you that I do not have in my possession any version of Photo Shop or Light Room. I do not want anyone to think that I just think I'm so amazing that I don't need to edit... That's not it at all.

Randsburg, Searles Crossing, Red Rock Canyon, etc.
Your travel fee is $40 per hour of my travel.
I schedule sessions in Ridgecrest about once a month and the rest of the time I am available in the Tehachapi area!
