A Personal Touch.
One of our #1 goals at Chad Mitchell Photography is to offer you, our customer, a personal touch, a memorable experience like no other, that leaves our customers coming
back for more and telling everyone they know about their positive experience with us. A majority of our sessions
are offered after 5 p.m. through the week and almost anytime on the weekends. With busy work schedules, school
schedules, sports, church, and other activities, our customers find that working with Chad Mitchell Photography
is a breeze. We understand your hectic schedule and try to accommodate you to the best of our capability.
Our sessions and bookings are by appointment or reservation only, but we maintain this policy so that we can continue
to provide our customers with a personal touch. Because of this, we allow plenty of time per customer for their
specific type of session. We are not afraid to go longer than expected to create the ideal session or capture the
perfect photograph. We are proud to have a "no limits" attitude toward our photography. Likewise, with
weddings, Chad Mitchell Photography only schedules one wedding per day, so that we may focus our professional services
on you. This your moment in time. It is our opportunity to capture it!
Besides standard photography services, Chad Mitchell Photography also provides
more unique, intimate and special sessions for our customers:
Bridal Portraiture: As part of some
of our wedding packages, we offer a complimentary bridal portrait session for the bride-to-be. As little girls,
brides always dreamed about their wedding day and essentially their wedding dress. Because of this understanding,
a complimentary bridal portrait session is included with some of our wedding packages to make your experience with
us more personal and unforgettable. This session is typically scheduled at least two to four weeks before your
wedding day and must be used before your wedding date. Sometimes it is based around a practice hair styling or
make-up session and before the final dress cleaning and pressing. These sessions are 100% digital, so you can proof
your portrait session on our web site within hours. From there, brides have traditionally either ordered prints
for presentation on their wedding day (i.e. in reception halls, in the bridal suite, or at ceremony locations)
or ordered these whimsical creations as part of their wedding print packages.
High School Senior Sessions: There
are very few times in your life when you will experience the highs and unknowns like you will during your high
school senior year. Likewise, this is a time when becoming an adult means letting your personality shine and your
character speak out. At Chad Mitchell Photography, we like to think that we have the gift to bring out the best
in seniors, making their session fun, exciting, contemporary and timeless. Having an advertising and creative design
background, Chad N. Mitchell repeatedly creates personalized portrait sessions with seniors that is definitely
NOT the "cookie-cutter", get-you-in-and-out-the-door session that too many larger studios are notorious
for implementing. Chad takes the time to make your session perfect. Time after time, we create sessions that illustrate
each senior in his or her own unique way -- never the same, perfectly different.
Newborn and Baby Portrait Sessions:
Whether it is your first child or your last child, Chad Mitchell Photography specializes in newborn and baby portrait
sessions to capture the once-in-a-lifetime photos of your special little one. We have photographed babies as young
as one week old up to toddlers, and we know how to capture your little one's unique character and natural beauty.
Offering a special touch, your session is not rushed at all. In fact, we take extra steps to block out special
time for this type of portraiture. Our studio becomes an quiet, warm, inviting atmosphere in which to create timeless
portraits for parents, grandparents, family and friends. We take the time to capture the perfect shot, so there
are no time limits -- just pure beauty and fun.
Family Portrait Sessions: One of the
most overlooked photo sessions people do in their lives are family portraits. Only when it is too late -- for example,
when a child gets older and changes appearances, when a family member goes to college or moves away, or unfortunately
when someone passes away -- do people think about having a portrait session done. Too often, we hear about family
portrait sessions that were done years, sometimes decades ago, and family members want to update this priceless
time piece. At Chad Mitchell Photography, we take family portraits very seriously and go the extra mile to make
it perfect for your family. Whether that means meeting special deadlines or requirements, scheduling a session
at an unusual time, shooting a session in a customized and special location, or simply coming up with alternatives
to traditional sittings for a more creative and fun approach, Chad Mitchell Photography will make, create, and
fulfill your family portrait session. And with reasonable pricing and exciting sessions, you will find that scheduling
a family portrait with Chad Mitchell Photography may become an annual event!
Intimate Portraits for Couples: Think
back to when you first met your partner and your stomach was filled with fluttering butterflies. What first attracted
you to him or her? Was it her radiant face? Was it his vibrant eyes? Was it the natural curves of his or her body?
Whether it has been months or years, you know the beauty locked within your partner. At Chad Mitchell Photography,
we have offered a unique photographic experience only for couples in love. Whether you are giving your partner
a gift and sending them to our studio for a session, or giving them an intimate photographic print of yourself,
Chad Mitchell Photography knows how to capture the beauty in your relationship and your partner. These intimate
sessions are not nude sessions, so please do not ask us; however, these are sessions that bring out the beauty
in you or your partner. Sensual. Passionate. Beautiful. It is one of the greatest, most personalized gifts you
can give to your loved one.
And finally, what is Chad Mitchell Photography all about? Essentially, we are
all about capturing timeless moments in your life. It is a celebration of life in each and every photograph. I,
Chad N. Mitchell, simply ask for the opportunity to be there when it happens...
