History
I got my first 35mm camera at the age of 15. I had the talent to use it, but spent the next 12 years developing the skill for it. A step too often skipped by those starting photography businesses today. The style that I have is one that makes people look great by great lighting and posing. Most of our sessions are done with the computer hooked up to the camera, and because I shoot for a perfect image in camera, people get to view the images as we go. Photoshop is not needed to make the images great or salable, as they are created that way; also, very few of our images get special effects. The reason for this is simple, people want great images of their family that are timeless. The effects added to images are trends that will quickly fade, and our style of portraits are done so they will not look dated or even ridiculous after the trend is over. Atlantis simply does their best to be the best. You never see a bad image from us, and we show a lot of images to prove that point.
