I have found what aspect of photography is the most important to me. That is to create art work for your homes. What this means is that I spend a whole lot of time on your photos. Hours, days. What this makes me, is not just a girl with a camera, not just another photographer. It makes me an artist, an artist that happens to absolutely love her style and apparently you do too since you are already here.
My goal for you is to not only to take your photographs but to create artwork and irreplaceable memories that will be cherished for generations. I want the artwork in your home to leave a positive, lasting impression on all your family, friends and acquaintances. Photos are meant to be printed, touched, felt and passed around on holiday gatherings and parties.
Fortunately, being a professional allows me to ensure that my photographs and my style remain inspirational through professional print products. Very honestly, much like many others had no idea that printing photos at a drug store or Target can have detrimental effect on professional photos. This is fine for your regular home photos because there is no endless hours spent in software editing programs we use to ensure “the style” is preserved and corrected from “RAW” images. That is why my photos look so different from “regular photos.” There have been many photographers that have compared print labs to pro prints, myself included, and here are good examples from fellow photographers.

When you or your family invests into my style and my photography, I urge you to consider that your investment will not be fruitful by printing these photos at Target. They will fade within months or years (pro prints and products from our lab do not fade for up to 100 years) and they LOOK and FEEL a world away from cheap products.
Let’s face it. At the end of the day, you are not investing in my talent to take your photo – you can do this at home. You are also not investing in just a photo print. You are investing in a form of art work – and that is what you can’t do at home. That is why you have me! The same goes for photo books, canvas and any other products I offer.
These are the paper types offered and the difference between each! You will love the look and feel of professional photos.
Hope this helps you make the best choices for your photo options!

Pearl Paper
This is a personal favorite. These photos have a glossy and distinctive pearl-like appearance. The colors really come out bright, crisp and dreamy. This is my choice of photo paper for my own prints.
Deep Matte Paper
This is a close second and is a PERFECT choice for framing prints. This finish has bright whites, very smooth texture and rich shadows. It softens the look of the photo just in the right way, and also will not leave fingerprints on the photos. USE THIS FOR ALL YOUR BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOS*** IT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!
Metallic Paper
Metallic style is very similar to the Pearl, however it is even more sharp, more colorful and crisp. It leaves the image with a unique visual interest & depth and flattering flesh tones.
