Embracing the best of both worlds, and earning a degree in photography before the digital era instilled in me a solid education and deep appreciation for the timeless beauty of film. As a result, I confidently bring both digital and film cameras to every shoot, selecting the most suitable option based on various factors. Rest assured, all film and digital images are thoughtfully edited and presented together, ensuring a cohesive and stunning final collection.
-
I provide retouching (removing blemishes, stray hairs, etc), as needed, for each photo individually using Lightroom and Photoshop, additionally each image is edited to correct skin tones, color and contrast to make each image look it's best. I edit all images to create a cohesive set, so they all tell a story but stand strongly on their own.
