Pete took pictures of my sons as a fathers day gift for my husband about 8 years ago. My husband say's the pictures are the BEST father's day gift he has ever received. He keeps the pictures on his desk at work and I also have a picture hanging on the wall in my living. My oldest son and his wife have just made my husband and I grandparents for the first time. Even though we now live in Tennessee I will be making a trip back to Pete to have another picture taken of the newest addition to our family as well as a family portrait.

I had Mr. Coleman do a boudoir photo shoot for a gift to give my husband on our first anniversary. He was Excellent! Very professional and extremely good at setting up the shots with awesome lighting and good poses. I am a plus size girl, but looking at my pictures, you really can't tell, he was just that good at setting things up to accentuate the good parts and not the bad in the pics. He does things old school, which is great when it comes to photography, because it means he knows how to set up stuff so that it comes out looking awesome. Nothing beats an old school photographer.
