Has your photographer left you seeing spots?





I have heard complaints about other photographers blinding their subjects with on-camera flash. Shooting an entire session this way can adversely effect the resulting images. If you are already seeing spots from the flash, your expression changes and you start to anticipate the next flash and flinch before each photo is taken.

That is where I come in:  I move my lights away from the camera so you may not even notice when they do flash. I have received compliments for this technique and how much nicer it is not to be blinded every time I take a photo.  Shooting outdoors is even better using this technique. It adds a 3-D quality to the photos giving a depth you can't get with natural light alone. It also helps to balance the background light with your portrait, instead of having an over-exposed background in your portrait, or an unintentional silhouette with a properly exposed background. I use my portable lighting equipment to give you beautifully balanced outdoor portraits like the images below:








Thank you for taking the time to view and appreciate my photography.
