I am a Small Event Specialist.  

I enjoy working one-on-one with my families.  I prefer the short, quiet,  intimate love affair over the "big bash" anytime.  I am an hourly rate photographer.  I charge an hourly rate for my professional services.  I charge $150.00 per hour, plus materials.  I have a 1-hour minimum but no maximums. 

For more than 36 years, I have photographed more than 4,500 wonderful Weddings, Bar Mitzvahs, Bat Mitzvahs, Debutante Balls, Senior Presentations, Private Parties and Corporate Special Events all across the country.   I use Hasselblad H1,  medium format, High Definition cameras and Phase One 22, 39 and 60 million pixel digital "Backs" exclusively.  I shoot 25, 45 and 65mb RAW files only.   I do all of my own Post Production and Photoshop work.  These are the same cameras used by NASA in outer space.  I don't use 35mm cameras for anything. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have worked from Minnesota to Cancun and New York to Hawaii.   However, my primary region is all of Northern California and Southern California, including Los Angeles County, San Bernardino County, San Diego County, The Inland Empire, Orange County, and Riverside County.

I am an hourly photographer.  I charge hourly rates for my professional services.  I charge $150.00 per hour, plus expenses.  You can have me do as much or as little as you wish.  I don't have any complicated or expensive packages.  If you prefer, you can process your own files, print your own pictures and make your own albums... or, I can do it all for you.


I enjoy working with my families at their small events.  There is so much more time spent shooting the important family photos that become heirlooms and cherished keepsakes.  There is much less confusion,  protocol and stress.

My small event families expect more from me.

I can do personal portraits, working with the children, grandparents, parents and closest relatives.  At these smaller events, I have time to concentrate on each individual, letting them get to know me before I begin to work with them.

Personally, I prefer shooting these smaller events because I get to shoot their souls.  My pictures look better, at the smaller events, because my subjects are more comfortable.

I have worked with hundreds of families at small weddings, often in their private residences or in secluded hotels.  Some have been on the beach, on their private yachts or in the mountains.  Some have lasted for only an hour or two while others have gone on, late into the night.

It is always my pleasure.

My costs are the same: $150.00 per hour, plus expenses.  You can set your own budget and I will structure my services around your desires.

I will not exceed your budget.
