Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to have an exchange of either email or text before we meet. This alows me to look back and reflect on what images we are going to capture and create a stratagy for the shoot.
Following that, I like to scout the location for the shoot before hand and then meet for the photos.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been a second camera for many years and have been around Professional Photographers for over 15 years. I will never say I know it all and in fact I am learing with every shoot.
How did you get started in this business?
My love for the camera came early in life, however I was told I could not make a career out of it. So or the last 20 years I have worked a "standard" job and held photography on the side.
Now, my wife and I are venturing into the unknown and making it a primary source of income.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I work with all walks of life. I have photographed events for fortune 100 companies and I have done portraits for people on the streets. My passion is telling a story in the photo, no matter who it is for.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I just took photos of a Fire Fighter while he educated the public youths on his job and what it takes to do it. The phots can be seen on my website.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
Be patient and don't just take the person with the lowest bid. Price is always a consideration, but if it is the only one, you may not be happy with the process or results you get. Take the time to fine someone you are comfortable with and the phots will come as a result.
