With an open-mind, a creative expression and a passion for portrait photography for over 30+ years, Deborah knows how to bring a little levity and fun to the photo shoot. She'll get you to open up and express your best self. Deborah's a true story teller. Deborah recently moved from Marin County and now resides in Contra Costa County but needless to say she's still taking photography appts for the Senior Experience in both counties.
Our first consultation, on the phone, will be a conversation about you and a little history of your background. We'll go over your likes and dislikes and the location where we'll want to do the photoshoot. By the end of our conversation, we'll both have a good idea where the photoshoot will be and the clothing and props you'll want to bring.

Services
Deborah offers Editorial Portraiture for Individuals and families, the H.S. Senior Experience, Surprise Proposals and Special Events. I've been a professional photographer for over 3 decades. While living in the Colorado mountains for 15 years, and taking photo courses I launched my career as a photojournalist at a weekly newspaper, the Fairplay Flume.
When was the last time you had a family photo shoot? A professional portrait of your family? It can be challenging to get everyone together, for sure. Maybe make it during the holidays when you're all together? Or anytime for that matter. What I love is to walk into a living room and see a beautiful piece of art work above your sofa of your family.
Who doesn't need a headshot? How long has it been? I mean really how long are you going to keep a 10 year old photo on your LinkedIn or your Online Dating site? You should have a headshot taken every other year to keep your site fresh and it also keeps you feeling fresh. I have clients who have been with me for 10 years and longer.
It's time to get excited because this is your time, your year and your high school portrait photo session. We'll begin with a phone consultation to talk about hair and wardrobe, 5 outfits and where we'll have the photoshoot. We'll also talk about safety during these uncertain times. The photo shoot will take about 2 hours.
This is one of my most favorite things to do "Surprise Proposals." I love it! I can go where ever you want. I have mostly gone to the wine country and done them. Another business I have is Let's Roll Wine Tours. I take clients out wine tasting while enjoying Napa Valley. I assume an amateur roll as a newbie photographer wanting to take photos of the budding romance.

Deborah has designed and photographed my holidays cards for the past four years. She is extremely talented, capturing my personality and style with ease. The reactions from my friends and family are positive usually resulting in a phone call from them! Comments like: "Who took that picture?" "Amazing" and "You never looked so good!" Mission accomplished! Looking forward to a continued experience!

I scheduled a photo shoot with Deborah at St. Vincent's that had a very aggressive shooting schedule. We pre-scouted the location and blocked out the locations and the desired shots which made all the difference in the world. On the day of shooting, she did an amazing job, on the fly, capturing great pictures with incredible back drops. By the way, I have also used many of her photos for headshots that have more character than you would find in a studio. I would highly recommend Deborah.

When it comes to a classic headshot, which is yearly for me in my business, call Deborah Welsh Productions. Fabulous sitting for her and great captures were the outcome. As a professional, Deborah knows what the agents and pros are looking for. And with her encouragement and positive reinforcement behind the camera, got great results with a bit of coaching from her behind the lens. Quick turnaround with proofs and even quicker with the hi-res photos needed under the pressure of ASAP.
I've also engaged her services for events that I produce, capturing the smiles, backdrops and essence

I just had a portrait session with Deborah and I couldnt be more satisfied with the experience or the results. From the time I stepped into her cool studio and through the shoot I felt completely comfortable. She is very skillful not only at creating a relaxing environment, but also about coaching you through the experience to get the best results. I am really happy with the end product and only regret that I didnt get a professional photo to be used on my website sooner. I would definetly recommend her reasonably priced services to anyone wanting some great studio work.

Deborah was an angel to work with.
We did an unusual shoot including 'Galaxy' The World's Largest Polished Opal and a naked lady. She was wonderful working me the model to put her at ease, did a great job with the lighting.
This is the second shoot that we have worked together on.
I would highly recommend Deborah as a Fine photographer.
