Lifestyle Portraits in Southern & Central Michigan, Northeastern Indiana or Northwestern Ohio . . .

If you want to have Lifestyle Portraits taken of yourself and/or your family or pets, let me know by emailing me at pywrit@pywrit.com, pywrit@msn.com or calling (517) 437-3079 (leave a message and give me a day or two to respond). I am available for photo sessions on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Click "Fees and Services" above for pricing.

I am also looking for locations to shoot, either as landscapes or for modeling sessions.

Lifestyle Portraits

Lifestyle Portait of a man smoking.Capture the "Real" You with Lifestyle Portraits: Lifestyle portraits, also known as slice-of-life, creative or candid portraits, are not your static sit-and-pose type of portraits.  Lifestyle portraits have the subject interacting with their environment, whether it is parents interacting with their children, someone out walking their dog, a hobbyist demonstrating his/her passion, or folks just relaxing on the back deck. They are moments in time, slices of life that quickly pass away. The portraits are artistic in nature and capture the real you, not just how you got dressed up for a couple of hours to sit in front of a gray background. They are timeless and make for a much lovelier display than a "mall studio" portrait. Lifestyle Portraits are dynamic.

And they are far more dramatic  and unique than standard portraits.

Don't be shy. This is not fashion photography. You don't have to be perfect. You don't have to be skinny as a rail. You do not need to have training or fancy clothes. All you really need is the ability to make yourself presentable, have a little flare, want to have some fun while having your picture taken. And if you are willing to sign a model release, you might get your photos taken for free.*

I am also willing to take traditional portraits if that is what you wish.

* Free photography is limited to people within 30 miles of Hillsdale, Michigan as determined by MSN maps. Not everyone qualifies for free photography. It depends on the subject and my needs. An offer free photography will be made at the time of the session if you fit what I am looking for. Photos may be sold through stock photography agencies.

Pets

Pet Portrait of a gray tabby cat.We all love our pets. They are every bit as much a part of the family as many of our relatives, sometimes even more. They are fun, friendly, funny, cute, fuzzy and heartwarming. They are loyal. They bring out that which is best in ourselves.

That is why I offer pet portraits as well. Depending on the animal, the photography can be done inside or outside. Sessions last as long as the pet is willing to participate or the agreed upon length of the session and can have many different results depending on the pet itself. Why not immortalize your furry, feathered, or even scaled friend with a pet portrait. You can even be in the photo with your pet.  Why settle for a simple snapshot when you can have a professional take photos to immortalize your best friend.

Places

I am also looking for great places in southern Michigan to do photography sessions. They can be barns, commercial buildings, wooded private land, empty warehouses or offices, nice houses, just about anywhere. If you have such a place and would are willing to let me use it for photography purposes on occasion, I would love to hear from you. Just drop me an email at pywrit@pywrit.com with the subject "Photography Location Available".

I am also looking for great landscapes. If you know one and wish to share, feel free to drop me an email with the subject "landscape location" to pywrit@pywrit.com.
