It is frequently said that no matter how much polishing one does to a turd, it's still a turd. Nowhere is this cliché more apropos than in photography. Surely, Photoshop provides an incredible resource to photographers, but the quality of the result is highly dependent on that of the source material. So [dp] msa# focuses on editing as a tool, part of the means to an end, rather than an end in and of itself.

This section of the [dp] msa# website shows you how we combine photography, editing, and management into a single product that makes your firm look as good as the subjects in the photos. The [dp] msa# one-stop shop paradigm continues from the click of the camera shutter to the motion of the mouse in the editing software. As always, a complete portfolio is available on request.

Photography is commonly considered an art. This generalization is an oversimplification of what photography is, what it represents, and how it works. The photographer is an artist, methodically and scientifically making use of advanced tools to capture a moment in time. While the proliferation of cameras on cell phones and cheap digital point-and-shoot cameras has made it easy for anyone to take pictures, the creation of a photograph is an intricate and time-consuming process requiring immense dedication and skill.

[dp] msa# provides you with exclusive access to that dedication and skill. And with licensed pilots on staff, [dp] msa# brings a whole new meaning to "on-location shooting." Send us an inquiry, and we'll send you some of what we've done. Then we'll do it again, just for you.

Of course, even the best photos may need some help. Maybe a bird flew into the frame and was missed on the scene. Since each photograph represents a singular moment in time, re-capturing that image may very well be impossible. [dp] msa# uses photo editing in a way designed to respect the photographic progress. Fix some disheveled hair, button a collar, dry off a sweaty forehead, or even eliminate inadvertently included elements.

[dp] msa# will not, however, destroy the spirit of the photograph. In all but the rarest of cases, the "Filters" menu is entirely off-limits. [dp] msa# will not abuse HDR to give you an alien-looking world unless the project specifically calls for such effects, nor will we paste a palm tree into a scene of the tundra. Respectful, judicious editing is the key at [dp] msa#.

Even the best collection of photography is not worth very much if the photos are not managed properly. After all, if you can't find your photos, how are you to share them? Utilizing the best photo management tools available, [dp] msa# will not only track, categorize, and organize your photos, but will also give you the best value in using those very same photos.

Whether you want a simple gallery on the internet, a book for a coffee table, prints for a showroom, or a complicated media project integrating your photos, [dp] msa# provides exactly what you need, exactly when you need it. [dp] msa# photo service does not end at the camera or the computer; rather, it continues all the way through to delivery of your photo-based product.
