About

Heirloom Photo Company


If it's worth doing, it's worth being ALL in.

I have mastered posing. Posing is all about body language.

Anyone can pick up a camera or their cell phone and push a button.

The art of being a great photographer is the ability to understand people through their nonverbal communication.
