MEMORIES FOREVER CAPTURED




Life happens too fast. You may want to consider implementing Lifestyle Photography to your everyday life whether you try it yourself or have Heidi Puccio of Image by Design Works help you…

What is Lifestyle Photography?

A baby’s first tooth. A child’s lost tooth. Coming of age as a young adult. Moments too precious to forget. Moments that are part of YOUR STORY. Heidi can help you transform a fleeting moment into a lasting memory. Taking the documentary approach into your home, we can record those every day events.

It’s about a story. The ability to tell that story, to capture magical moments with the skill of a visual journalist and the sensibility of a lyrical observer, is what Heidi does best.

Since 2006, Heidi Puccio of Image by Design Works has engaged in the fine art of photographic storytelling. Heidi has always held the vision not only to document life’s important events but also to evoke both the expansive and intimate details of an instant. To show not just the dress or flowers, but life’s most revealing moments.

Today, Heidi is a full service photographer that continues to preserve the most memorable times in a family’s life — from childhood to Adult to special celebrations — in an elegant, refined style.

About Me:

I am portrait photographer who specializes in creating candid beach & location portraits of expecting mothers, babies, children, teens & families in the Southern New Jersey area. We are lucky here as we have the ocean, the beach, the river, fields and some urban locations. Our sessions are fun and casual, be prepared to enjoy yourself. I am a mother, daughter, sister, aunt, friend, artist and we cannot forget that I am a mom to a crazy Shih Tzu.

You are investing in art created JUST for you; these portraits are designed to capture the essence of your children and family. This artwork shows all who see who you are and what family is to you. My hope is that you display these images around your home so that you can witness the expression, emotion, or feeling forever.

Ever since I was a child, I always loved the opportunity to photograph a particular moment or special time in the lives of my family and friends. My creativity and sense of style is reflected in my work.

Although I have a great passion for photography it only comes second to the love I share with my partner and two daughters, MacKenzie and Madison. Our home is full of memories, laughter, love, and many, many photographs!

I truly believe every photograph tells a story… and I would be honored to help you tell yours.

Creating lasting memories… One portrait at a time!


Booking a session:

In the summer months through early November I book out about 6 weeks in advance. Please keep in mind that the beach sessions are 1 HOUR before the SUNSET, so in July we meet at 7pm. The calendar is open for any newborn sessions (2weeks and younger) Maternity sessions are booked about 6 weeks before your due date.

Please bring a clean snack, (pretzels, fish crackers, water, light colored juice) to keep the little ones going. Please refrain from bringing along your own camera, remember you hired me to photograph your family and you would want me to have your undivided attention. ;)

Your family sessions are fun, creative and personal. I do not photograph extended family sessions, as my priority is to provide a unique, personal experience to each family.

I am also available for commercial and editorial assignments.

Feel free to stop by my website http://www.flickr.com/photos/imagebydesignworks/ or my facebook site http://www.facebook.com/ImageByDesignWorks and make a comment. Thank you!


The following should be considered prior to scheduling your photo session:


--Location

Taking portraits should be a lot of fun! My goal is to make it comfortable and fun for you. When it comes to location there are several things to consider when having portraits taken. What style are you going for? Do you want more of a traditional/formal look? Or do you like to be more creative and want pictures with different background scenery/colors/textures? Location is a decision that should be given some thought. We want you to feel comfortable and sometimes when you are at a park or a favorite place, you tend to feel more at ease and can be yourselves. This is the feeling I want to capture in the images I take.

~ The possibilities are endless ~

I offer on-location photography. When choosing one location & one wardrobe change the session fee is $150. If you would like to have them taken at multiple locations & wardrobe changes the fee is $200. If you do not have a location in mind, I will gladly share some ideas with you.


--What to wear

Bright vibrant colors with textures tend to photograph really well especially outdoors. It is a good idea to bring a bag or suitcase of clothes, shoes and accessories along to your shoot. If you are unsure what to bring or wear, please contact me and I will help you.

--Proofs and Ordering

Usually within 7-14 days you will be able to view and order your proofs. We will set a time to meet and help you with the process of viewing and ordering your proofs at no additional charge.

We ask that you please respect copyright laws. It is illegal to copy, scan or reproduce the images in any manner by anyone other than the photographer.
