Who are we and why do we do what we do?
Twirling in front of the mirror…you are eight…and you KNOW that shade of pink is definitely yours…. you KNOW you are beautiful. You graduate from High School, you go to college, you start a career…you might open a business, or get married or maybe even have babies…..LIFE takes over. Somewhere along the way, you stopped looking in the mirror and thinking you look beautiful. You certainly don’t feel beautiful…But you ARE beautiful.
I know what beautiful looks like, and I know how to find it in you. This portrait experience is for every woman who has ever looked in the mirror and not felt good enough or pretty enough. You deserve to see yourself the way others see you…beautiful inside and out.
Love Yourself Now…Celebrate Your Life. Let us show you how beautiful you are.
We believe that there is something magical about capturing a high school senior at that point in their life when they are on the cusp of beginning to fulfill all of the dreams they have on their “list”…when (to quote Shel Silverstein) “anything can be”. What a fabulous time in life! When we photograph a high school senior, we are advocating that they embrace their individual. It makes us happiest when they look at their images and say…that’s who I am…not just another photograph of what I look like…because after all, anyone can take a picture of what you look like, we want to capture WHO YOU ARE. How do we do that? Three things…Every session comes with a preplanning session where we get to know each other, armed with this information…Tom has an absolute gift at capturing exactly who you are in your images, and Tom is fun…you will instantly feel like you have known him forever…which makes it easy to relax and let the real you shine through.
We LOVE to tell stories…big stories, small stories, I-saw-the-coolest-thing-today stories…we believe that passing stories to other people and down through generations creates bonds and authentic connections between all of us. After all, we do all share this big thing called Life. Capturing a person’s true story…getting to know the little person inside their head…and being able to translate it onto an image to preserve forever…is our ultimate goal every single time we pick up the camera. Everyone has a story and your story deserves to be told.
