The Little Gems Photography experience is designed to obtain a collection of portraits and fun candid shots to
document this time in your life. Sessions are scheduled with enough time to really focus on you, your child or
children and to come away with a wonderful variety perfect for keepsake albums, printed coffee table books,
and wall collections.
Annette is the owner and photographer of Little Gems Photography. She is the mother of 4 and also owns a
preschool. She loves children and prides herself on making the kids love her back and relax for the best shots
possible. She is very candid, expressive, goofy and her personality shines through during the portrait session.
Annette always tries to make the photo session as fun and relaxed as possible so she can get the best "true to
life" pictures. She doesn't like the forced "say cheese" pictures, although she says "Say Cheese" sometimes,
she waits until the relaxed laugh happens and captures the moment just right (hopefully!). During the photo
session, Annette will do some formal posed positions and then take the time to play, mess around, and laugh
so she can capture the relationships between the people in the photos.
Annette believes that photos are a treasure. She began studying photography in High School where she won
awards for her work. She also lettered in Photography. It has been a hobby her whole life, and she wanted to
share her love of photography with others. Annette is a preschool owner also, and she decided to take her
own school pictures, which helped her photography business grow. Annette's strong point is Photoshop. She
has a wide range of processing techniques that will make your photo's unique. She loves graphic design and
loves to create creative collages, announcements, cards, and invitations for her customers. Be sure to check
out her different Galleries to see if her "style" is your style!
After your session is done, I load all of the images onto my computer and choose a collection of my favorites. I enhance them and crop them if needed. Then I choose my favorite image and add a variety of finishes to it (black and white, sepia, midnight, softly, acid wash, etc.). Then I create an online gallery for you and your friends to view. You choose which images you want different finishes on, I do the work, then I burn the CD for you with all images included. You can print them where you choose, or I can print them for you.
