Do You Photograph Weddings or Bar/Bat Mitzvahs?
I would only be interested in shooting a small intimate wedding and Bar/Bat Mitzvahs.
Where Do You Hold Your Sessions?
For on location photography, we can meet at your home, park or beach. The locations are endless. If you want formal studio work, I can bring my studio to your home or you can come to my home.
When Do I Schedule My Maternity Or Newborn Session?
Maternity sessions are scheduled in the third trimester. I prefer the end of the seventh month. You look great and feel great. Newborn sessions are held during the first 10 days of life. The sooner the better. I do offer a discount on my session fee when I shoot the maternity and newborn portraits.
How Did You Get Started In Photography?
Would you believe I got started by being a eBay seller. Yep! I sold on eBay for 6 years and had a very successful business. I needed to learn how to photograph the products I sold in order to make them appealing to the buyer. When I decided to stop being a seller, a friend of mine suggested photography. It took off from there. I started reading everything I could, joined photography forums, practiced and practiced some more. I attend photography and Photoshop workshops and conventions. I am a member of the PPA. I enter photography contests to keep the creative juices flowing. The learning process never stops.
Funny thing, when I look back at the photographs I took of my children before I knew anything about photography, I can see that I always had an eye for composition. My father is an artist. Not only can he paint and draw, but he was a photographer in WWII. I have some great images during the time he was a solider. Maybe I inherited some of his artistic skills.
Do You Sell Digital Files
Yes. I have two packages for digital files. All the images on the CD are cropped 11×14. If you want a larger size, let me know so I can crop it for you. I will give you lab suggestions for when you decide to print.
Do You Offer Birth Announcement Or Holiday Cards?
Sure do! I have some wonderful templates for you to choose from.
