1.  “Excellence in Photography Needn’t be Expensive.” We have very affordable pricing with all our packages. Call us and I’m sure you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

2.  THE LITTLE THINGS: We take the time to make sure the details aren’t overlooked. Hand placement, head positions, and body language are just a few of the items for which we show care.

3.  IT’S FUN! We make the photography session a fun experience. Every session is a new and rewarding experience for you AND me.

4.  RELAX! We make you feel relaxed and at ease allowing you to be yourself to capture your best expression.

5.  LIGHTING: Russ Burden has written many articles in internationally published photography magazines on the topic of outdoor lighting. He knows light!

6.  BACKGROUNDS: Russ has also written articles on composition and the importance of choosing proper backgrounds. He knows composition!

7.  ALL ABOUT YOU: When we schedule a session, it’s devoted 100% to you. We don’t schedule two seniors for the same time slot and try to cram in as many sessions as possible. If you schedule a sitting with a good friend, this would be the only time we would do simultaneous sessions.

8.  VARIETY: The outdoor location in which I shoot is a hidden gem and not used by lots of other photographers resulting in a senior portrait that doesn’t look like every other senior portrait.

9.  CLOTHING MATTERS: We talk to you about what to wear to make you look your best. You get to be photographed in three different outfits and receive 30 proofs!

10.  PROPS: Although most high schools don’t allow props to be included in the yearbook photo, if there’s something dear to you, we will take a few shots of you with that item - car, pet, musical instrument, etc.
