Hello Friends, as many of you know I had to put aside my photography business to give my full attention to some family matters. Things are mostly setteled now, so it's back to work. I setup a new marketing channel at Thumbtack.com and I would like to ask those of you that have worked with me to consider giving me a review here https://tack.bz/2mpQH It would be a great help! Now I'm off to finish working on some shots I took during the last few months...see ya soon!

This is what your review page looks like. You won't be able to leave a review for yourself, but this is what people who come to this page will see (minus this notice, of course).

This first two from a project I am working on. I have to sift through another 300 pic's from this shoot...its going to be a long night..lol. Family shoots are a ton of fun but they never seem to go the way you picture in your head. This is my wife and I with one of ten grandchildren that are spread around the United states. We were blessed enough to have 7 here with us in Arizona, but that's soon to change as Jerremias Vega IV and his Dad will soon be moving to South Dakota.

First pic from this set I am doing for Alex, Daisy and their beautiful daughter Violet. She was soooo much fun to work with, always laughing, never fussy, but she had this fasination with the leaves on the trees being moved by the wind. I improvised a little...lol. Just love this family!

The holidays are just around the corner! If you would like to send out photo holiday cards you have to act fast! Get your session in before the end of November to make sure you get your cards in time to send out. Of course you can also chose not to print cards but send out digital copies instead.

Just finished up a set for Marc B. It was a fun shoot and I got to try out a few new Lightroom adjustments! Marc is a really good guy and wanted some new photos of himself to share. He was also a good sport and agreed to step a little outside of his comfort zone, he kinda cringed when I asked him to lay on the grass...lol. Those turned out to be some of my favorite shots. I posted a few from the set, let me know what you think!

3 very beautiful people, a little vignette, a little texture = a great keep sake. More of these will be up tomorrow nite. =). By the way, remember that I will be happy to rework your photos. Just send me a high resolution JPG, TIFF, PNG or photoshop PSD file for post processing magic.

New 4 photo collage available! You can supply the photos or you can opt. to have a session or mini session with me. If you supply the photos I will rework and edit them and provide a finished product you will be proud to display in your home for the low price of 25 dollars. The first portrait has been worked with an overlay of gold tone black and white, the second is the untouched color photo, which do you like best?

Raven Photography is new to the San Tan Valley in sunny Phoenix, Arizona! I am very much looking forward to getting to know my new neighbors and find ways that I can provide professional photographic services to other businesses and residential clients. As a way of getting out and meeting new people, please let me know of any charity or business events that you think would benefit from having a free photography session give away. The session includes the sitting fee, 4×5 proof set, and basic portrait package, a value of over 200 dollars! If your group or organization can use me, drop me a PM and let me know!

Portrait Photography and photographic services, for personal or business

Photo sessions are a lot of fun, but there are other services I can provide for my clients above and beyond documenting cherished memories. One such service is reworking photo's that have gotten a little old and worn, or processing electronic photo's that just need some touching up. Here is an example of what I mean...
The first photo was really just a regular snapshot, the sort of thing you do without giving much thought. The second photo is what I got after a little post processing. Not spectacular but I think it has a much nicer vibe, way more pop on the color, and I was able to remove the annoying head phone cable.
