About

The first and most important thing for me is to listen to what a client is wanting. I ask them to visualize the pictures after we are all finisned and what they see. That is the starting point. From there the creativity kicks in exploring ideas. Ideas are free. Some will work and some don't. That is how creativity takes shape.

The quality of my work is exceptional. I aim high. I worked in Vegas for 9 years and the level of performers and artists I got to work with inspired me to aim for a level of quality that most photographers barely dream of.

I love playing with people. It really doesn't feel like work. I love the creative process.

    I worked with Marcus at Mandalay Bay wedding chappel and we worked several green screen concessions together.
    I would say that he is a master of rapport. He really is super good with people. He always took the time to connect with our customers and make them comfortable which went a long way in getting great pictures for them.
    He has a talent for creative problem-solving and making the best out of any situation. Most of our co workers thought that the job was boring. Not him. He made a dull job exciting for our customers. They had a great time and bought more pictures. It was a big win for everyone.

    His relationship with others. Here is an example after giving him a referral to a friend. He has a natural ability to make others feel valued and respected, He actually cares. It really shows in his work. I recommended him to friends and he did the most wonderful thing for them. He took a picture of their Grandfather who had died and blended it together with the two girls in the family. So it looks like Grandpa’s ghost is sitting with the Grand daughters. They got very emotional as it gave them something to remember Grandpa by and honor his memory. It really helped them with the pain of loosing a loved one.

    I want to take a moment to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your professionalism and All Around Talent in the creation of my fantastic headshots. The fact that youre able to suggest venues and Lighting and understand the needs for a person on stage is incredible. You spent so much time and effort and helped me edit, choose, print, Etc which seemed to me to go way above and beyond most photographers. My pictures are amazing and everyone that sees them thinks so too. You captured exactly what I needed, me as Bette Midler and I will continue to use you far into the future.
    THANK YOU

    Frequently asked questions

    First off I ask what they envision for their photo shoot. What is it that they are hoping to get out of their experience. They the creative process kicks in. It is time to start sharing ideas.

    My Mother owned a Modeling and Talent Agency. I grew up watching how things were done but professionals. 

    I moved to Las Vegas to become a better photographer. There is nothing like expericnce to get dialed in. I got to shoot with amazing people and always shot to give them the best images that they were going to get from anyone.

    No. A customers needs are almost always unique. 

    My Mother owned a Modeling and Talent Agency. I grew up watching how things were done but professionals. 

    Then I was working in a night club as a DJ and the owner of the club brought in photographers and videographers and none of them really knew what they were doing. He told me " I am tired of hiring clowns and watching you do all of their work for them. You get a camera and I will hire you". And so it began.

    I have shot over 450 weddings. Shot countless events. I was hired to shoot a Ballet company in LA. I was the Court Photogrpher for the Las Vegas Renaissance Faire. Worked with the some of the top acrobats and dancers in Las Vegas. Traveled around the country shooting members albums for Country Clubs. 

    I can't even count how many events I have shot. I loved working with Bands, Magicians, Dancers and I was the photographer for a Poetry Slam for a year. I expecially loved shooting the Remassance Faire. I loved them all. 

    Simple. Look at their work. Quality always stands out. Then ask questions. Get a feel for their personality and if they feel like a good fit.

    That is totally up to them. The real time for exploring is when the conversation has started. New questions are going to come up all the time.
