Why you should Hire a professional Photographer.

I'm sure you want to get the best images possible--which are almost never the cheapest images. As we all know, the digital age of photography has led a whole slew of people into believing they are professional photographers (And undercutting the real Pros). Digital cameras allow them to take thousands of out-of-focus, awkwardly framed, or badly exposed images and some of those " photographers" may even be able to clean them up with Photoshop or Lightroom, but will they be Print Quality? Almost anything can look good on the internet. It's also true that the newest digital cameras are really smart, however a smart digital camera doesn't create an amazing picture all on it's own.
More then ever, so many people are calling themselves "photographers" and putting up quick, free, slick looking photography websites. When you hire a pro, you are not just hiring a person with a more expensive camera, you are hiring someone who knows how to make you look awesome, using an artistic eye, and have the ability to put the subject at ease. We have technical skills and equipment to give you a riveting image that everyone will notice. You are hiring someone who can take any subject and Mold into something eye-catching.

The difference between an amazing photographer and a hack is around $50.00 per session, so ask yourself, what are your lost memories worth?

Ron's Quality Auto Is one of our media partners and also my mechanic.  As a woman I don't feel comfortable going to a mechanic because as soon as you walk in I always feel like they are taking advantage of me.  But the minute I met The guys at Ron's Quality Auto I was at ease.  Bryan and James are very honest they told me what I need to fix immediately and what could wait for a bit and tried to give me the best deals they could.  I tell everyone I know to use these guys for great service and best value but especially the ladies because I know how hard it is to find a trust worthy mechanic not looking to take you for a ride! Honestly Ladies and Gentlemen the guys here are awesome quick and efficient and make it all better!  

Check them out they are in London, ON on the corner of Wharncliff and Riverside.  You won't be sorry you did!
