Please describe
any special techniques you offer:
We don't really do special techniques...... I did an internship once and the photographer i was working with DRILLED into me, "if you want a good photograph, take a good photograph - It's just too expensive, and inconsistant to rely on post production for quality"
That said, i will crop or adjust color in an image. I prefer to let your beauty come out. Not show you how good i am with different software. |

situations do you have experience with?
