Create Wall Art | Wyoming Photographer

A couple of weeks ago I wrote a post on how I create custom wall creations just for you. Once you email me photos of your walls I can show you what your images will look like on your walls before you purchase them. So I want to give you some ideas and I want you to start imagining these beautiful arrangements in your home with the creative images that I will capture for you and your family. Let me create wall art for you. Call today to arrange your creative session.

"I wish I had . . ." | Gillette, Wyoming Photographer

Do not wait; the time will never be just right.
-Napoleon Hill

Too often I hear stories that include "I wish I had" . "I wish I had gotten newborn portraits." "I wish I had gotten that family portrait before he went to college." Too many "I wishes". Today I simply want to "wish" that everyone stops wishing and gets it done. Don't wait till it's too late.

How sad that these families don't have wonderful, storytelling, memory evoking family portraits at different times in their lives as their children grew. Portraits to tell the story of what they liked to do together. Portraits that tell the story of their relationships - from the total dependence of an infant to the pushing back of the teenage years. Portraits that told where they liked to go and what they liked to do as a family.

As much as we humans hate to admit it, life has a natural beginning and ending. It's natural to emotionally assume that those we love will always be there with us. But it's simply not the case.

We all know families who unexpectedly lost someone important to them. That's when the "I wish I had" regrets are so strong if they've "never got around to it".

And if they had, then those portraits become TREASURES.

No, we can't change the circumstances, but we certainly can freeze for all time the wonderful memories of each of these times in your life. We can provide a constant presence of each of those you love.

But for us to do this, you have to decide that the time is NOW, not in an "I wish" moment when it's no longer possible. You have to make the call and schedule the creative session. Yes it involves some effort in putting the whole thing together, but for the rest of your life, you'll be glad you did.
