About
My name is Justin. I have been a professional photogapher/ videographer for 5+ years now. I have my studies from The Art Institute of Pittsburgh online for photography.
I fell in love with photography when I first captured a smile from my son. I knew at that very moment that this was someting I wanted to turn into a career. It brings me joy when I see a clients facial expression from what I was able to capture.
I'm experienced in; Wedding photography and videography, Music Video production, Portrait photography, Professional Headshots, Family Photography, Event photography/videography, Real Estate Photography and much more.
My goal is to simply assist my client with bringing what ever vision they have to life. No matter if it is a video for an event or a forever memory to be framed. Allow me to capture those moments for you.

What I enjoy the most from the work I do is the reaction from the clients when they see the work. Before and after reactions are the best for me. The before moments are still a wow but once everything is done and edited, it makes it even better.
