TESTIMONIALS
Crede,
What a joy to work with you for our family photos. You were casual, fun and yet very professional with our large family of 20 people. What a natural you are with children of all ages too! The pictures turned out wonderfully. They seemed to capture the tone we wanted of our family portraits. Everyone is pleased with the outcome and if we ever come back to Deep Creek and decide to get new family pictures taken, we will not hesitate to contact you!
Thanks again!

Hi Crede,
I wanted to send you a note to thank you for taking the Galkin family photos last weekend. We were a huge, loud group with lots of families and one really sick mother/grandmother but you made everything go very smoothly. I am really looking forward to seeing the photos when they are complete.
Thanks again!

A Little About Me
I have had over 3,500 photos published in a wide range of magazines and publications such as Audubon, National Geographic Traveller, Outside, New England Journal, Southern Living, Maryland and Virginia Magazines, Town and Country and Paddler, as well as numerous brochures and catalogs. My photographs regularly appear on the cover of Deep Creek Magazine and the Lakefront., as well as the Vacation Guide. I am an experienced commercial and magazine editorial photographer and enjoy any photographic challenge from the pressures and creativity demanded at weddings to the technical aspects of studio and location photography for some of the best resorts and magazines in the country. I work with people all the time in my role as a photographer as well as my role as an accomplished wilderness guide and outdoor educator with my other company All Earth Tours.
I shoot with 12 megapixel Nikon D300 cameras and Nikon EDIF 'fast glass' lenses. The high resolution images that you own and I deliver on disk to you are suitable for up 24X36 inch prints. I personally tweak, process and adjust each image on disk for best output. You can make your own slideshows, and photobooks! Plus you can order PRO LAB PRINTS from your custom family photo gallery I create for you at http://ccalhoun1.photostockplus.com Don'tr forget that my fee includes about 2-3 add'l hours of desktop image processing.
I am sure you will find me easy to work with...
and best of all FUN!!

- Common Questions -
What are we paying for? |
I spend up to one hour driving to and from your location (1/2 hour each way). I am on site for up to 2 hours (depending on your package). I personally process edit and adjust your images for high quality output not just good display on a monitor). I custom design a laser etched disk for you. I create and upload your images to an online gallery. I ship the discs to you. All in all I spend about 5-6 hours on your job. I am a professional location photographer and have lots of experience posing and getting good expressions out of my clients in any setting any time of year. I have been working in Photoshop since version 2.0 (almost 15 years) and understand all the technical details of digital imagery. |
What's the best time to schedule? |
Just about anytime except mid day. Some locations of course
have different lighting at different times, however we are experts
at working with the location and will do our best. If weather is a factor we may have the flexibility to change days or times. Winter portraits can be done indoors. Saturdays are difficult to schedule due to my wedding contracts. |
Where do you take the pictures? |
At your vacation home or location, we come to you. Or, you can
arrange for a family photo session at one of the parks such as Swallow Falls
State Park, or the lake front at Deep Creek Park. |
How about clothes? |
Browse the photography samples in our galleries, and get an idea. It's up
to you. If your clothes are too nice it limits the ability of me to pose folks sitting or kneeling on the ground. |
How large a group? |
Any size. It's more a time issue. Large groups may take more
time in the Break Out Phase of the sitting and hence may incur
additional charges. Groups of 25 to 50 will have no problem getting the session within the alloted 2 hour time frame. |
What's the delivery? |
4-5 weeks for final cd's/dvd's. All photos are posted online (and
available for optional online ordering) in approx. 7-14 days. |
