We have had a lot of questions and comments about our offer. Hopefully this page will answer some of your questions.

What is this all about?
We wanted to thank our armed forces for everything they do everyday. This is a small way we can try to accomplish that.
What do you offer?

• We offer a free outdoor session (in the park, your backyard etc) for a soldier and his family.
• Disk with images from the session and limited copyright release so you can print those pictures at your leisure.
• Touched up (skin blemishes removed etc) 8X10 family portrait.

Where will this session take place?

Outside in the park or another area we will agree to. Park/Location has to be in DES MOINES AREA

Can we include pets/children/parents etc?

Yes you may invite anyone you want to your session. Every picture would have to include deploying soldier though

Can we do an indoor/studio session?

At this time we concentrate our business on outdoor portraiture and wedding photography, because of that we don’t have a studio in place and are not able to accommodate studio session requests. We might have studio available in the future.

How long does this session take?

Your session will take about 20-30 minutes depending on how many people are there.

Is there a catch, will we have to pay to get pictures?

No you will never have to pay for this session, this is our way of giving back to the community. However we limit this to 1 session/year/soldier.

Do I need to know anything else?

While we offer this session free of charge we don’t guarantee that we will be available on the dates that you request. We try to accomodate all of the requests, but this also means that you need to be flexible as well. This offer is also contingent on weather, we might have to reschedule your session if rain is forecasted or if we run into a severe weather. We will also have very limited sessions in the winter.
