• FAQs
  • Why should I hire a photographer as opposed to just taking my own pictures.
    Let's try to answer a question with a question.

    Can you cut your own hair? Yes, but do you? If you do, will you obtain the same result as if you went to a professional stylist?
    Can you service your own car? Yes, but do you? Quality mechanics bring with them years of experience and are much more efficient than you might be at performing the exact same service task.
    Can you paint your own car? Possibly, but can you be assured of the result?

    Quality photographers bring with them experience and skill. An experienced photographer is also highly skilled in using the tools of the craft which will obviously include a camera of some sort, possibly light meters, special lighting, reflectors, back drops, tripods, remote releases, a multitude of lenses and is able to discern the right lens for a specific task.

    Many people claim to be photographers. We do not take photography casually.
  • Why should I choose to use Photowerks for my portraits or event?
    Photowerks makes every effort to ensure that your photos are the best that they can be. We have thousands of dollars invested in equipment toward this end.

Our photographer has been making great photos for over 10 years.
  • Can Photowerks remove blemishes or marks from my photos?
