An Energetic Grand Opening Celebration
I first met Dr. Jamie and her team two months ago, when they visited my photography studio here in downtown Pacific Grove, CA. The result of that shoot was one of the best group photos I ever made! So I was delighted when she asked me to photograph her grand opening ribbon cutting hosted by the Pacific Grove Chamber of Commerce. That meant I was there in an official capacity as a professional event photographer, and also as an ambassador for the PG Chamber. Dr. Jamie has personality and energy that cannot be contained! This makes getting great candids and other action shots both easy and a pleasure. I invite you to check out all the smiles below, no doubt made bigger and better both by the fun of the event and her skill as a dentist! Thank you Dr. Jamie for continuing to choose me as your photographer, I really appreciate it.
Professional Ribbon Cutting and Event Photography
There is something special about a ribbon cutting — it marks the beginning of something new, while bringing together the people who helped make it happen.
For this event, the goal was to capture both the key moments — including the ribbon cutting itself — as well as the natural, in-between moments that reflect the energy and personality of the opening.
Dr. Jamie Klinefelter’s new office reflects a modern, welcoming approach to dentistry, and it was clear from the turnout how much support she has within the local community. Events like this are not just about opening a space, but about building relationships and creating a strong first impression.

Although the ribbon cutting was coordinated with the Chamber, I was hired directly by Dr. Jamie to provide full event coverage — ensuring that every important moment, detail, and interaction was documented professionally and ready to be used for marketing, social media, and future promotion.
This included a mix of candid coverage, group portraits, and storytelling images throughout the event.
