Surprise Me

I'm one for unique and original. I love taking an idea a client may have and making it their own.
I actually started out decorating cakes for my kids birthdays. Where as taking pictures was really more of a hobby. At first I had a few people ask me to do work for them. Not long after that I was taking cake orders and, scheduling photo sessions of all types.

I'm fond of all my projects. I know it's corny but, I really do love my work! I really enjoy making my clients day. When a customer says, " You nailed it!" That you took their idea and made it a reality; there's just no words.

A little about my process:
On cake orders I like to set up a time with you so that we may go over details like servings, flavors, design, location, delivery, and cost. I also do cakes samplings for brides.
For photos it's ideal to be in contact with you prior to your session to plan everything out. ( Wardrobe, locations, poses, travel, etc). This way you're able to be more relaxed in your photos to give a more natural look; not a forced pose.
Most importantly, we are sure to get the poses you want.

I'm very competitive with my prices. I am set on perfection and will give top quality product. If I don't like the end result, I don't sell it. Therefore, I pride myself on getting it right.

Things to think about before you make that call:

[CAKES]
• Plan a budget
• Know what you're wanting
• Know how many servings you will need
• Location of the cake table ( Indoors with controlled air temp. / Outdoors exposed to uncontrolled temp)
• Power supply for cake accessories: water features, LED lights, mechanics, etc.
• Will you need delivery and/or catering services

[PHOTOS]
• Plan a budget
• Know what you're wanting
• Practice your poses in a mirror
I know it sounds odd and may even feel a little weird to begin with but, this helps you to see your pose first hand and, to get it perfected.
• Any memorabilia you want in or, highlighted in your photos/videos.
Location(s)
• People or pets you may want with you in your photos.
• Be sure those people are available for the date and time of session
• Plan out your Outfit(s) (Wardrobe changes)
With that in mind think of spots where you will be able to change your outfits. (Keep the weather in mind)

I have been decorating cakes for over 20 years now and, a freelance photographer for 10 years. I have not had any specific education or, training in photography, nor cake decorating. I'm self taught and do all my own research. As I mentioned before, this all started as more of a hobby for me and grew. As you look through my facebook page you'll find reviews from customers, photos I've taken and, see cakes I've decorate.
