About

Hi, my name is Toni Hamel and I am so glad you have taken the time to visit my website.  I knew I wanted to be in the Photography and Design field since fifth grade.  I was so inspired by National Geographic Magazines, the colors, the photography, the people.  I knew this is what I wanted to do.  I started making and selling jewelry in 1993, started sewing/designing clothing and writing ebooks in 2002 after my daughter was born.  I became a full time photographer in 2007.  Most of my photography can be seen all throughout the internet on many childrens boutique websites for clothing, accessories and shoes.  I do a lot of commercial modeling work and headshots but I also focus on fun and hip portrait art.  I also design websites, create graphics and do product photography for small businesses - so rest assured that you will be getting a totally custom experience.  I love my job and my family.  I love my dogs.  I love jokes and laughing.  I love movies, plays, music and dancing.  I love air conditioning (lol).  I love to cook and bake from scratch (I post those photos on facebook) and would love for you to add me.    You can friend me on facebook and follow me on twitter.  If you are interested in booking a session you can choose the link on the side of the screen.  If you are interested in web design/graphics, call 985.237.1847.  If you are a boutique and interested in us shooting a collection, email me at sales@tonihamel.com and if you are interested in my ebooks, click the banner below and search toni hamel.    Finally, thanks for reading and getting to know a little more about me, I would love to learn more about you.
