IHere's what I do-
I am an artist who uses photography and post processing as my art form. What that means is that I can bring the look of fine or graphic art to your photos or mine! I can take photos of you or your loved ones, pets included, or I can edit the photos you take, making your snapshots more beautiful and your portraits look like paintings!
If you have a photo that you want to do something artistic with- a portrait of a loved one, for instance, or an old black and white shot that you dearly wish was a color photo, I can make that happen for you. Is there a picture of your child that you really love, but you HATE the background color? Often those things can be altered to create something really beautiful. While other photographers approach their work with the emphasis being on capturing the image with complete realism, I specialize in making a photo look like a work of art. I can add colors or remove them, fix facial flaws, and do light to medium restoration of old photos.
Is that baby photo yellowing? I can take care of that! Do you wish you'd had your teeth whitened before your Senior prom? Did your daughter have a break out right before her Junior High Cheerleading photo was taken? I can carefully edit out the things you don't like, and enhance the things you do! If a photo is terribly degraded, I can often salvage enough of it to capture the memory and turn it into an art piece that has an unexpected beauty and mood.
I also sell my images, so check them out at www.chriscrowley.imagekind.com and www.fineartamerica.com/profiles/chris-crowley.html. If you see a style you like, I can probably do some thing similar with YOUR photos! All of the images are available as cards, too, so I can create note cards for your relatives and friends, or you can purchase my own art if you like it. A portion of all my sales goes to charity.
