The goal of The Simple Portrait is to capture character and personality.  This is different from "normal" portraits in that they are not sterile and lifeless captures of the individual.  Instead, I strive to create a vibrant and living photograph.

    Rather than use a studio, I prefer a unique and/or comfortable location for the shoot.  This can be at the home, in nature, or any other location.  My services range from providing prints (any size from wallet to 20x30 inch poster size), framing, colorplaques (my personal favorite), CDs or DVDs.  In addition, many levels of expert editing are available -- from simply removing a pimple, to more extreme editing.  In all cases, you will be able to review the images before ordering.

    The minimum charge for a sitting (up to one hour) is $100.  Prints can be made in any size or quantity, as well as DVDs of the images as well as the professionally edited images.  Framing is also available.   It goes without saying that I take great pride in my work and fully stand behind it.  If, for any reason, you are not completely satisfied, you will receive a full refund.

   If this is the type of photography you are looking for, then you have found the right photographer!   For more information or to arrange a photo shoot, please click here to contact me.
