Currently living in Florida. Moved from Chicago, Illinois 3 years ago. I started my photography as a hobby that turned into a business for my friends and family. I love to capture special moments in people lives so they can enjoy those memories again and again. I love to take pictures at weddings, birthday parties, engagement parties, baby reveal parties and the great outdoors.

Greetings. My name is Kapplan and I am a filmmaker, videographer and photographer. I have been doing video production and photography for over ten years now. I am a graduate from the University of Tampa with a Bachelor in Film and Media. I have shot and worked on from over a dozen of short films to tv shows to sporting events to graduations. The most favorite thing out of all of this is to be able to tell a story and hopefully I can tell yours too!
