My name is Edwin So, I call Southern California my home. I've been shooting weddings and events since I was old enough to hold a camera. Just kidding. I started professionally back in 2006 but my love for photography probably began when I was little and would play around with my dad's film camera collection. The thought of capturing a moment in time that speaks a thousand words and having it live forever is why I'm a photographer.

There is a reason why I continue shooting for over 30 years. For me, creativity has no limits and photography allows endless creativity that makes me happy and my clients especially happy. My eye is active, constantly looking for light and what I can do with that light to make great photos. The results are special. I am versatile with experience and skills in all kinds of different photographic genres. Weddings: I have over 30-years of photojournalism experience having concluded a new photographer career when COVID-19 gripped the country and closed my newspaper for good. I use that storytelling experience to make your special moment memorable...

State of the art equipment and a well experienced crew. All

I shoot ad campaigns all over the world. I'm a lighting master with an eye for beauty. I'm also a Marine Corp, combat action Veteran. When you hire me you get an acute artists eye with the heart of a warrior! After more than 20 years of shooting, I still LOVE making amazing imagery. http://michaelpoolphotography.com/ IG: @michaelpoolphotography I love taking pictures. Whether it's portraits, beauty or food and beyond. Making intriuging imagery fills my soul....

The ability to hear a clients needs and turn that into digital media photo or video that makes a client stand out and sells thier product or services.

My work as a photographer stands out because I don't see it as a job - it's an art that I truly enjoy. I like to collaborate with my subjects to make sure they get what they want, all while pushing myself artistically. I enjoy meeting people and hearing their story - then trying to convey that in an image. The fact that a camera - this "tool" has taken me around the world is unreal. I truly love what I do and enjoy collaborating with others.
