Dear Friends,

Thank you for taking the time to get to know us from home. I hope you'll spend a few minutes reading this letter and looking at the samples of my work included in these pages. I want you to see that I sincerely enjoy photographic portraiture. All phases of picture-taking and picture-making are a delightful challenge to me. But, most importantly, I love to make beautiful portraits of you.

A portrait is an emotional celebration of a special event in your life: a child's birthday, graduation from high school, a wedding or anniversary. Our business is built around photographs of you and your loved ones, senior portraits, weddings, passports, business portraits, families and children.

In my portrait of you, I strive to capture the essence of your personality. I recognize that each of us is different. Therefore, everyone at H Horan Studio listens to you and your wishes. Thus, we can bring the best of our style and technique together to make a portrait or wedding interpretation that reflects all your emotions, indeed, your hopes and dreams for the moment. Our commitment to technical excellence continues to grow through education, modern equipment and the use of digital techniques. I have had a life-long interest in photography and I offer you more than 30 years of professional photography experience. I am a member of the Professional Photographers of Iowa, Professional Photographers of America and the Photo Marketing Association.

Working with me at H Horan Studio is Shannon Bielicke. She is a very outgoing person who will make your visit to H Horan Studio a pleasant photographic experience and a warm part of your memories of the special life event that we capture for you.

After a difficult year due to the Spring 2008 flood. We are very excited to be moved into our new studio location at 2711 Muscatine Avenue in Iowa City, IA. We have a beautiful indoor space that allows for a wide range of backgrounds and use of props. We also are pleased to have a portrait garden located behind the building for a local outdoor setting.

I hope you enjoy the samples of my portraiture. However, these pictures represent such a few samples that I hope you would come to our studio and see all of my displayed work for yourself.

At H Horan Studio, we have made a commitment to produce excellent portraits, each one capturing in a gesture or smile the precious emotions of your wonderful life event. As you select a photographer, consider our artistry, quality, and value. If you would like to know more, please contact us to set up a meeting.

Sincerely,

Howard Horan
