Day in the Life / Year in the Life Packages
Your daughter just shared her ice cream cone with the dog but your spouse was away on a business trip, missing again one of the spontaneous moments that happen every day that you can’t adequately convey with words. Your son just hand-picked a bunch of flowers from the neighbors yard and delivered them to you with a mile-wide grin and you wish his grandparents, who live three states away, could have been there to see it. Now they can.
Day-in-the-Life and Year-in-the-Life packages are a unique opportunity to create priceless and meaningful photographs of someone’s life. Throughout my career, visual storytelling has been my specialty and my photo documentaries have been published nationwide in newspapers and magazines. Until now, that privilege has been reserved exclusively for those whose stories were told in the media.
The Day-in-the–Life package includes 8-hours of photo documentation of you and/or your child’s life. It can be a special occasion or simply you going about your daily life while I capture the ordinary, and not so ordinary, moments that define it. Hidden within those everyday routines are precious moments that provide lifelong memories.
It may start with getting ready in the morning and include normal routines such as breakfast, bath time, and naptime. As the day unfolds, you might take a walk in the park, visit the barbershop, or read a story before bed. And as you and your child go about your daily life, I’ll photograph the laughs and tears, the triumphs and frustrations and the bonds between family and friends.
The Year-in-the-Life package follows the same concept but is done over a one-year period, with four separate visits (of several hours each) throughout the year. When your child is a toddler, they're carefree and uninhibited. They go about their life unaware of the camera, allowing prime opportunities to capture priceless moments. For adolescents and teens, the photos define an era and provide a visual documentation of a critical time in your child's life.
Together, we’ll choose the best of those moments and the photos will be hand-assembled in a one-of-a-kind album or book that will be shared and enjoyed for generations. These unique collections of photographs make a great gift for Mother’s Day or Father’s Day, or a priceless treasure for grandparents.
All packages are customizable and include the creative fee, a set of prints, a custom-designed album or book and a CD of images.
