About
https://stunningimagesstudio.mypixieset.com
I have been taking photos and shooting video for well over 30 years. I have found over those years that using the best equipment out there has helped my clients achieve their desired goals at a much more reasonable cost and time frame.
I have been hired several times to fix a clients previous attempts with other photographers / videographers because of their failure to meet the clients goals. Unfortunately in the long run this has caused the client to pay twice as much as they originally planed.
What do you enjoy about the work you do?
I love a challenge and learning new things. No two photography / videography jobs are the same. They may be similar but all of them provide unique challenges to accomplishing the goal at hand.
I also can’t wait to see the final results and am often more excited than the client to explore the images we have captured in camera.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Discuss the clients final goals and needs for the work to come up with the best plans of achieving those goals.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Some college film classes but it has basically been an art form I have always had in the way I look at the world. I naturally analyze every photograph and movie that I see as to how it was achieved or put together. I just can’t turn off the photography / videography aspect that my brain has always provided. I call it my third eye.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your services? If so, please share the details here.
I do have a starting point to the type of work desired on my website based on my years of experience in the field.
How did you get started in this business?
As a teenager I invested all of my money in a video camera in order to following that third eye I talked about earlier. I filmed everything from the brand new sport of snowboarding in the mid 1980’s to my coworkers as a waiter and turned them both into short movies. I had a camera in my hand so much that people did not recognize me without one. As time progressed I became known as the camera guy and the work started to present itself because of that.
What types of customers have you worked with?
All kinds from individual’s to larger corporations like the Disneys Swan hotel and Hernon manufacturing inc. No mater the size of the company it has always come down to working with one main individual within that organization.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I liked covering a kids event in a glow in the dark gym. Contrary to normal thinking it took a lot of light to make it look like I didn’t use any light at all. Four 500W lights and one on camera flash to be exact. With the professional lighting I was able to freeze the action in the dark while maintaining the awesome lighting effects in the background of the event. An added bonus was that the event took place inside where all the air-conditioning was and not outside in a field where it normally takes place every year.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
Look through the work of several different professionals to see which one comes closest to your final goal with the work they have done. I have found most clients search only by the cost without evaluating the work. Most of the time you get what you pay for. Sometimes you don’t and then they call me in to fix it.
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
Why are you contacting a professional?
What is your reasonable budget for the project?
What is the time frame available before the final result is needed?
What kind of equipment will the professional bring?
Do they have backup equipment if something breaks?
