What if I have special needs?

Research shows that approximately 20 percent of the population has a disability of some kind. Understanding the challenges is fundamental to a successful portrait and with the education and skills it can be a positive experience for everyone involved. The key to success is to understand your subject along with experience, persistence, patience, talent and skills. There are also easier locations to photograph, along with wheel chair accessibility. Parents of children with special needs know that even day-to-day activities require effort that most people don't realize and often hesitate at the thought of a professional portrait session. David Koster CPP of Portraits In The Sand has recently achieved the SKPA full accreditation. Special Kids Photography of America is a program of compassion and excellence to benefit families of special children. We have taken steps to familiarize ourselves with the differing needs of people with special needs and their families. Please request a special needs form so that we may understand your situation. Portraits In The Sand is there to help them from the first step and honored to work with some very special people. 302-226-9226
