Services for our Military
I love capturing special moments for our Military families! I desire to capture the first embrace after a long wait (as a sister in arms I too know what it is like from both ends), portraits, special ceremonies, commissioning, change of command, last flights, graduations, and any other events. It is never easy to be away from a loved one - you endure so much as a family! Let us capture the day in photos and prints on your wall.
I will help make sure you feel as comfortable as possible and make sure you can enjoy the moment in full.
**Disclaimer ** I am not contracted by the Military. By hiring me prior to your event, I am your guest and there to capture your family for personal use.

Southern California Military Studio Portraits.
You know you would regret a professional portrait to commemorate your time in the military! Don’t miss it; if you do, you’re going to have to shave your terminal-leave-beard and get back into the studio before your uniform is too small. Just kidding, but let’s get you into the studio!
Flags available: United States of America (5x8 & 8x12), Marine Corps, Navy, Airforce, and Army (so far)
Headshot.
$150: 1 Portrait, seated, with United States Flag and your branch of service flag in the background. All uniforms and branches are welcome! Contact me about a current special.
High-key/Low-light.
$275: 6 Portraits: “Headshot” package and 5 highly contrasted images for that painterly feel.

When you purchase something from an artist, you are not just buying a photo or service. You are buying years of mistakes, experiments, errors, and success all wrapped up into a moment in time. You are buying a piece of their story, their success, even their soul.
