Dear Trenton,

After photographing my first daughter I knew you had a true gift in making your subject feel special. 

My second daughter is a quiet, well-reserved person.  Your interaction with my daughter brought out a side of her personality that surprised me and was so beautiful to experience.

I would tell other parents.  “Not only do we get great portraits -- you get a photographer that engages his clients and brings out the best.”  Thank you, Thank you for Trenton!

Mary Alice Morency

From Trenton Bahr

I’d really rather have the seniors skip reading this, however I feel this is important consideration parents should be aware of when selecting a portrait photographer.

Sincerely, as a father of three, it’s important to my wife and I  how our children are treated by professionals, whether they be doctors, teachers, and such... for the experience they have with them will be with them forever.

Each son or daughter that comes to Trenton Bahr starts out a little nervous, anxious, or not feeling as photogenic as they are. 

It is my true joy to work with your child, as each is an individual with their own unique and special personality.  I feel it’s not only my responsibility but it is my gift to make your Senior not only look fantastic but, more importantly, feel beautiful and uplifted after their session.  I have found that every Senior, even the ones that did not want to be here, leaves having had a fun experience, enjoyed the process, and feels excited about selecting the portraits. 

As a parent, you’ll find that the little extra you invest in portraits by Trenton Bahr is worth it.  That it is the experience your young adult had being photographed that will be a gift to your child and yourself for the rest of your lives along with the fine portraits you’ll enjoy forever.

The letter below is a great compliment to me and a comment that I often receive from parents that attend their Senior’s Portrait Session. 

Sincerely,

Exceptional  Value
