About Images on the Web

I know many of you realize this but I just wanted to make a point. Many times we view photographs on the web thinking they are not very good. But what some may not know is that images posted on the web are very small renditions of the original. They have been manipulated to "fit" on a web page. In other words, some of the image is missing, and degrated so that you can see them quickly and efficiantly. This is because it would take too long for the web browser to load if you had the full image there.

My images are all printed on REAL photo paper using the Liquid process, not ink jet prints that are popular today. I send them to a professional lab - and they provide me with extremely high quality photographs. This is what I do for my customers. I do this because I want to ensure that you recieve the best that is available and that provides a value to you for your investment.

If you are unsure of how your portraits will look after previewing them on the web ( I provide web previews at no additional cost with the sitting fee) then please order the additional Proof portfolio. You'll be glad you did - even though the proofs on the portfolio are small by comparison - they are of the finest quality and will show you just how beautiful your final product can be!

My Favorite Portraits

It has been a busy Month - Here are two girls I just finished - They are soooo cute.


This is Averie - Isn't she adorable! I did 2 sessions with her this year - baby ducks and also this summer session - this shot was done on my deck in the front of the house.

I love the lighting on her in hair - she looks very natual sitting on the deck. This is the romantic look don't you think - would make a wonderful large wall portrait!

This is Emily - So sweet! She is one of my regulars. Her mother wanted some "special images" of Emily near a window with natural light. I like this particular image because of the antique quality it renders - and her relaxing posture.

This was a very enjoyable session - Emily is so relaxed with me and she is very patient.

I look forward to many years with her as she grows!
