Clare Ascani Photography & Jazz VocalistClare Ascani Photography specializes in personal portraits in an Editorial Magazine style, in creating effective Personal Branding Business portraits to include environmental images if the client wants to include that, and Fine Art Black & White Intimate Portraits. What sets me apart from the competition? I don't think about competition…I know it's essential to offer the most attentive special care to each client by spending whatever time it takes to listen to what they are looking to achieve and what attributes they want convey in their images. I feel it's important to completely focus on each client helping to provide them with whatever it takes to help them feel prepared and relaxed upon arrival to the studio so they can let down their guard and we can capture their real and authentic personality. I have professional stylists on hand to include professional hair and makeup styling, outfit consultation, and pampering so they feel completely focused the entire session to create the most beautiful portraits they've ever seen of themselves. I also have spent a great many years researching the best professional printing labs, and the highest quality products that will last for generations. I feel it's very important to offer post-session follow-up care in order to make sure the client(s) are satisfied and happy with their purchases and experience, and, if they are not, work them to do whatever it takes to have them feel happy with their purchases. I have been in the arts most of my life. I have loved photography and portraits all my life. I have worked at Conde Nast Publications in New York City for 10 years, worked with highly esteemed photographers at the magazines, formed my own portraiture studio in 2008 and have been creating effective and business changing personal branding images for business professionals since then. The most common testimonial I receive speaks about the client's appreciation of my attention to detail, my personable nature that helps them relax and enjoy their portrait session, and my tendency to make sure they are satisfied with their images. In addition, I have a Bachelor of Music degree in Performance from Trinity University in San Antonio, TX, and have been a working jazz vocalist from the time I was 20 years old in live music venues, jingles studios, and I've released my first CD in 2013. I am currently performing around Pittsburgh and the surrounding areas working at jazz venues and private events in Pittsburgh and surrounding areas with the best musicians in town.ACNMy passion is helping others earn income or save income with our life essential services: Identity Theft Protection, Home Security, Wireless, AT&T, DISH, Direct TV, Credit Card Processing, Internet, EnergyMagical Moments VacationsA travel agent since 2010, Tammy's love for both travel and the industry at large shines through in every aspect of her life.
