Perfect Pictures in Every Situation
Want pictures of the adorable and romantic moments between just you and your partner? Of course! Want something more playful? You got it! Family pictures... even including the family dog? Can do! We pride ourselves on being able to photograph in nearly every situation. Not only is Eric fantastic at composing each photograph, he makes sure that every image is lit well, too. We bring our professional lighting equipment so even when there isn't much natural light to work with, your pictures will still turn out beautifully!
Colors Bright and Beautiful
Anyone can slap a filter over a photograph and call it a day. But while this can create some nice effects, we prefer colors that are bright, beautiful, and true to life. We color correct every image so that your pictures look beautifully natural. Our professional lab also prints the images color corrected so your images turn out exactly as they are intended.
