TONY MCKAY STUDIOS
Real moments, found slowly. Family and portrait photographer based in Hamilton.
What I do and how
BEFORE WE SHOOT
What to wear, where, when, and what you want from it. Babies work around sleep. Performers need their place. We sort it all up front.
ON THE DAY
I'm in the room with you, directing. No shot list. I'll give you something to do, a walk, a picnic, a book to read, and stay quiet while it unfolds. I'm after the best version of you and an authentic feeling.
THE EDIT
Clean and natural, a little moody, a little film like. No reshaping. Just you, as you actually are. Real and timeless. Colour and black and white.
WHAT YOU GET
The experience is part of what you get. You're not buying a set number of photos. You've seen the work, and yours will look like it, with you in it.
