#2nd Myth, Mistake Or Misconception: All Family Portraits Are Created Equal.

SECRET #2:

INCORRECT. Nothing could be further from the truth. If you're at all like most people, you've probably had this question go through your mind: How do I choose the right photographer? In fact, you may even have thought of someone in your family - an uncle, a grandparent, even a friend - who is a bit of an amateur photographer. Why not have those people create the photograph of your family?

Question: Just suppose someone were to create the perfect family portrait for you, one where you and your loved ones looked better and happier than ever... Suppose someone created a portrait that meant the world to you? What would that be worth?

No price tag can be put on your family's memories. They are and always will be priceless. So, why would you ever want to gamble with those memories? It's just a question of whether you believe a portrait of your family could really mean that much to you.

If you were sick, and had to go to a doctor, would you want the cheapest doctor or the best one? Well, there's really no question, its the same thing with your family's memories. You can certainly find a cheaper photographer in town but there are other things to consider than just price. The photographer you choose should care about your family and your memories, not just about making a buck off you.

I pride myself on becoming a family friend of every family I photograph. I've even had some clients invite me to their houses for dinner. You see I didn't get into photography to get rich. Believe me, there are better (and easier) ways to make a fast buck. I actually went to college to become an Architect. I could be making a WHOLE bunch of money if I'd stayed in that line of work.

But I chose to become a professional family photographer. Why did I make that career choice? Because I finally realized that all the money in the world meant nothing to me if I didn't feel like I was making a difference.

I realized that memories are priceless and that there is no more noble or wonderful profession than to become a memory giver.

I didn't become a photographer because I liked to take pictures. Don't get me wrong, I do like the art of photography, but that's not the reason I first picked up a camera. As a child, my brothers and I didn't have many photographs taken. My entire time growing up, I can remember only a few photographs taken of us. Early in my career, I created a portrait of my brothers and I together and to this day I cherish that photograph, it means the world to me.

I can't even imagine what it would be like not to have that photograph displayed on my wall. I look at it every single day, it is one of my most prized possessions. I only wish I had a current photograph of all of us together. That would be one of the most priceless things I own.

Time is the one thing that none of us have enough of, it’s the one thing that money can't buy. Time is one of the things that we all would give just about anything for. Through photography, we can hold on to the moments in our lives that we wish could last forever. And, if it’s done correctly, these same photographs can become almost like works of art that we display in our homes for everyone to see and share.

Don't make the decision as to who will photograph your family until you chat with me. There are things you will want to ask the photographers.

There's no cost, and no obligation to just chat with me and it will make the whole difference as to how great your portraits will look. Simply click on INFO to find out how to contact me by phone, just to chat.

Don't worry, I'm not going to try to sell you on working with me. I'm already very busy, and I don't need to pressure anyone to work with me as a photographer. I'll just talk to you about your portraits and help you discover what your photographs could be like.

If you decide to have me create your portraits, great. If not, no problem.

We are extremely pleased with the care and the time that M.J. spent with us to make our family portrait the very best. We look at it everyday

If you decide to have me create your portraits, great! If not, no problem.

If you're like most parents when you first thought of having a portrait created of your child, you probably pictured in your mind a tiny studio, with a painted background, some bright lights with your child sitting cross-legged on a stool looking nervous. Maybe you even thought of a family member or a friend of yours who fancies himself or herself as a bit of a photography buff. You probably thought of having this person do a quick photograph of your child and you'd call that good enough. You're not alone. Most parents think this way at first but just like the other parents who read the important information on this site, something made you decide to check out my website. You probably said to yourself I want some photographs of my child. Maybe you realized that a portrait of your child is so important, you're not going to trust it to just anyone. Believe me, you've made the right choice.

The 6 VITAL Things To Look For In Your Child's Photographer - The Secrets 99% Of All People In The World Don't Know:

By reading this far, at the least, you must be considering having a portrait of your child created? Well, that's great, you probably will never make a decision that will bring you more lasting joy. However, there are some things you need to know before your son or daughter steps in front of any camera. By the time you finish reading this webpage, you will know everything you need to know about how to have the perfect portrait of your child created, the one you will cherish forever!

There are 6 vital things you must look for in a photographer! If your photographer is missing any one of these things, your child's photographs will be much less than they should be. Demand that your photographer does each and every one of these things!

You may feel like having a children's portrait created is going to be a lot of work on your part, well, it isn't! As long as you know the information on this website it won't be any work at all on your part.

....So, lets jump right in!

#1st Thing Your Photographer MUST DO:
Demand That Your Photographer GUARANTEE You Will Love Your Child's Portraits.

Most photographers will not do this! Just suppose you had a portrait created and your son or daughter didn't look natural in it. The photograph was ok, but it didn't turn out spectacular. Should you have to pay for it? ABSOLUTELY NOT! I believe strongly that no one should ever have to pay for a photograph that isn't perfect. That's why I'm the only photographer in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan area to offer the following guarantee:

CHECK THIS OUT -
A Guarantee Unlike Any You've Ever Heard:

If your child doesn't look the happiest and best he or she has ever looked in these photographs and if you don't cry (tears of joy) when you look at them, then you don't have to pay me.

That’s my guarantee and personal promise to you. As far as I know, there’s no other photographer around that will make you this super of a guarantee. These photographs will be completely meaningless to you unless they convey the real emotions and personality of your child. That’s the only real reason to have a children's portrait created.

So, if for any reason you feel that the photographs I create for you are anything less than perfect, if you don't actually cry when I show them to you for the first time, you don't pay me for them. Its that simple!

Obviously, I'm totally confident that the portraits I create for you will be well beyond anything you imagine. I believe completely that these photographs will become your most prized possessions. If your house were on fire, you would grab them on the way out of your burning home. This is not arrogance and I can't stand arrogance. This is simply a complete belief in my abilities to capture natural, real emotions from your child on digital format. That's what I've devoted a portion of my life to and that's why I can't wait to photograph your child for you.

So, To Restate, Here’s My Fantastic DOUBLE GUARANTEE:

If you are not THRILLED with your photographs, if you are dissatisfied for any reason at all, I will do two things for you:

1st - At NO CHARGE, I will photograph your child again and make sure that its perfect, without you paying another cent.

2nd - If I am absolutely unable to thrill you and if I'm unable to create a photograph that you feel you will cherish forever, I will refund EVERY PENNY you invested in them. You don't pay for your photographs unless you love them beyond expression!

If I don't end up being your photographer, make absolutely sure your photographer offers this strong of a guarantee. If they are professional and really good at what they do, they should back up their work by taking all the risk off of you.

Stay tuned for Secret #2

M.J. put me and my baby at ease. We love the precious pictures he took of our child and we will treasure it for a lifetime.
