PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER
DAVID ARNOLD
I'm David Arnold, the heart and soul behind David Arnold Photo + Film, where my 30-year journey in photography has blossomed into a profound passion for portrait photography, encompassing family, individual, and couple portraits. My experience stretches from the classic era of black and white film to today's dynamic digital age, allowing me to craft portraits that are both timeless and deeply personal.
Photography, for me, has always been about capturing the essence of a moment or a person, transforming it into a lasting memory. The transition from focusing on headshots to embracing the broader spectrum of portrait photography has been both exhilarating and enriching, enabling me to capture the unique stories and connections of individuals and families. At David Arnold Photo + Film, we believe in the power of a photograph to not just preserve a moment, but to celebrate life's chapters and milestones. Join me in creating portraits that do more than just document; let's create art that reflects your journey and the depth of your relationships.

MY PORTRAIT PROCESS
01: Inquire + Book Your Day
Begin your headshot photography experience with a simple step – reach out to me, We will book a virtual consultation where we talk about your career goals, and we will book your session.
02: Vision Crafting & Inspiration Collaboration
After booking, we'll embark on a creative collaboration. Together, we'll design an inspiration board that perfectly captures your style and vision, setting the tone for your personalized photo session.
03: Capture:
The length of the session will vary from 45 minutes to 1.5 hours depending on the number of looks you choose. We will capture at least 200 photos per look.
04: Proofs & Selection:
Normally you receive your proofs within 72 hours of the end of your shoot. You then have some homework. You will need to narrow down the proofs to your favorite photos. When finished, you just shoot me a text and let me know you are finished.
05: The Magic Touch & Final Delivery
This is where I work some magic in the retouching process. I will utilize the latest photo editing software to turn your photos into magazine-quality works of art. Depending on the number of photos this could take between 7-10 days. Once they are complete, I will send you your finished gallery.
CREATIVE EDITING
The journey to your custom artwork begins with your portrait session, but the magic happens in the editing room. We meticulously select the finest images, considering various aspects such as lighting, background, focus, pose, facial expressions, and their overall charm. About a week after your session, you'll have the opportunity to choose your preferred images for editing. Please note that RAW files are not provided, as they represent unfinished work. Additional digital portraits are always available for order.
Upon finalizing your choices, our team dedicates itself to artistically enhancing each photograph in our distinctive style. Our Before & After Gallery showcases the careful balance we strike in both color and black & white editing, ensuring each image is a work of art. We believe in creating portraits that you'll cherish forever. For every minute spent capturing your moments, countless hours are invested behind the scenes to perfect your photos and enrich your experience with us to be nothing short of extraordinary.
