Case studies:

• A denominational magazine needed to publish a large number of photos from a  major church gathering on an extremely tight deadline. They were reluctant to try digital but trusted our judgment. They praised the superior quality and streamlined workflow. Best of all, we eliminated well over $1,000 in film and processing costs.

• An educational institution wanted to make major donors feel involved in a capital project. We documented construction progress monthly throughout the two-year project. Periodically we created a digital slide show on CD. The development department reported that donors—especially housebound people—were thrilled to see their gifts at work.

• A housing development organization needed a powerful way to showcase its work at its annual “Raising Roofs” benefit concert. We developed a series of photographs illustrating the importance of safe, affordable housing in their clients'  lives. These were used in the program booklet, the lobby display, and in a large-screen slideshow offered pre-concert and during intermission. Later the nonprofit used this same slideshow to compete for a major grant.

• A graduate school wanted to feature its extensive renovations in its quarterly publication. Unfortunately, the fireplace chosen as a backdrop for the cover shot wasn’t functioning at the time scheduled for the shoot. We photographed a similar but functioning fireplace elsewhere in the building and seamlessly blended these shots.
