Professional Photographers are Master Manipulators

Professional photographers are masters at manipulating light. They use light to create the vast dynamic range between highlights and shadows which create strong contrasts to generate stunning photographs. Contact a professional Sweet Monkey photographer today to see how we can manipulate your light. 

Professional Equipment

Sure. Cell phones take pretty good pictures these days but they will never compare to the advanced optics and image processors of a professional camera body paired with a professional camera lens. Every Sweet Monkey photographer is equipped with professional equipment to complement their professional skill set.  What are you waiting for?

The Dreaded Finger Photo

We've all experienced this disaster: 

You: "Excuse me kind stranger walking on the beach, could I bother you to take a picture of me and my family? It's the last day of our vacation."

Stranger: "Sure. No problem. Click! Click! Cick! Here's your phone. I took several shots for you."

You: "Thank you kind stranger."

You blowing a gasket when you see the pics: "What's this? C'mon! Really? Three blurry cell phone pics with our heads cut off? And what the heck is that? Is that a finger over the lens? Seriously? That was going to be a great picture too. Let's go! I need a drink!" 

This could have been avoided!
