About DA Visions
Ah yes, the about page. This is where I'm supposed to talk about myself, the business, my passion, my zeal for life and love of photography. UGH! Well to be honest, I don't like to talk about myself. I don't like to toot my own horn. I would much rather have someone else do it for me. So, if I put out a great exciting product, at a fair price, and provide good customer service I shouldn't have to talk about myself. My satisfied customers will do the talking for me. That's why I have testimonials scattered about this web, the Knot, Facebook and Google for you to see what my customers say. Referrals are the best!
Some of us haven't experienced losing a loved one, you will... just not yet. On a personal level having lost loved ones and recently my daughter I know firsthand just how important pictures are. There isn't a day go by that I don't see images of my lost family on my walls, on my desk or when I look at albums. It's very important, so much so that we look for those moments that you spend with your grandparents, moms, dads, uncles, aunts, sisters and brothers. Family is everything. We too are all family that work together to bring you our best.
I have been in the customer service business all of my working years, in different forms of businesses. I've been blessed with a successful photography business for 15+ years. DA Visions is me...D for Doug and A for Armstrong, Visions for how I see your event and how you want me to express it. I also have a great team that work well with me. As for the rest, product and pricing, you can find examples of that on this web and on my other social outlets. Emotions are what drive me to capture images. I like it when customers look at their photo's and the emotions from that day or event come rushing back.
We all use the best in Canon equipment. My style is both natural and off camera flash mixed with small to large light modifiers. We blend several styles into the day, cinematic, photojournalism, traditional and formal. I’m not afraid of light and I use it to give you exciting colorful images. I do all of my own image editing from conservative to extreme beauty retouching. I would like to use a quote from Photographer, Kevin Kubota. That, I myself work by.
"I'm a photographic impressionist. I want to capture the mood, or feeling, of the scene as it stands before me. The mood can be entirely influenced by context, sounds, relationships, smells, tastes, history, fantasies, or even alcohol. How I convey that feeling is my individual style and art. The tools I use are inconsequential."
I, like Kevin, carry a large tool box.
I also design my own albums using the software provided by the outstanding album company Graphistudio in Arba, Italy . Being able to provide this for my clients, offers them more variety and flexibility. My goal and persistence is to be the photographer that every client was happy they selected to record their life. I love life, I love capturing it as it happens and believe me It’s work but I embrace it and have fun. I want to get those pics of your Aunts, Uncles, Grandfathers and Grandmothers living it up. None of us ever know how much time we have left. I want you to have that, so you can print it and have it forever.
I hope you will find that DA Visions can meet your needs. Because quite frankly, it's your needs that matter the most.
I'd also like to mention our State-Of-The-Art-Fashionable-Trendsetting Experience Photo Booth. The most interactive fun photo booth on the market. Draw on the screen and or drag and drop virtual props and stickers. Guests can select from a variety of backgrounds or use as an open air booth. Guests will also have the option to print. We have a separate website just for it here Party Photo Draw
