TESTIMONIALS
Lon Monahan has been our favorite photographer for over five years now. The first photos he took for us were of our newborn son. Our baby cried and fussed the entire session, but somehow Lon managed to take amazing photos. We nearly cried with joy when we saw them! Since then, he has taken annual photos of both of our children. Lon is patient, creative, and very professional. We think of him as a family friend. Our children actually look forward to getting their pictures taken by Lon.

I use Monahan Photographic Artist because Lon is a professional who understands lighting and body positioning. My father was a professional photographer so I have high expectations. Lon has fulfilled those expectations each time.
