The people and companies that hire me to shoot for them do so because of my unique style of photography-- and because of how easy it is to work with me. The talented photographer has both a strong technical sense of the equipment he or she uses, as well as the artistic ability to reframe the world through a camera's lens.


Weddings


The couples I photograph on their wedding days come from a broad swath of backgrounds and styles-- which in my opinion is great. The weddings and commitment ceremonies vary from simple to extravagant, traditional to contemporary. Whether you plan on having your ceremony on a yacht, on a bluff overlooking the sea, in a science museum, at a country club, or anywhere in between, I'm as excited as you are about the venue. And I think that is why I've become a popular photographer.

My style is flexible, and I'm happy to adapt to any requests. When shooting, I take a mixed photojournalistic approach, meaning that I move around your ceremony capturing candid moments alongside of those standard shots everyone expects to have. People tend to enjoy this approach because it ensures that I get you cutting the cake... and if uncle Bob decides to do something funny, like breakdance... I get that too!

Below you will find my standard package and rates, but again, I am flexible should you require additional service, time, or just about anything else (disclaimer: I can't sing, don't do magic tricks for the kids, but I will help you put on those tricky boutonnieres).

Portraits


Anyone can point a camera at a person, push the shutter and take a picture. But good portraiture is about the expression of an emotion, thought, or quality.

A corporate portrait might communicate intelligence, strength, and integrity. But these qualities are probably not what you are trying to communicate on the cover of your band's new record. And what about high school yearbook pictures or family portraits?

One of my strengths as a photographer is my ability to adopt to the style and needs of my subjects. My clients love the results as much as they enjoy working with me. After all, there is no reason why having photos of yourself made can't be fun. It sounds obvious, but having fun and being relaxed during your shoot makes all the difference in how the images turn out. A photographer who can help his subjects enjoy the process will always end the day with the best possible images.

For the shoot I can come to your home or office, or we can choose a public location that you and I think will result in a great shoot. Below you will find a sample package, but as the needs, packages, and uses of the images is vastly different for each client, prices and packages will vary. I'll work with you to find something in your price range that meets the requirements that you have for your portrait session.

Corporate Events


The two primary questions a business wants to know the anwers to, with regard to a corporate event photographer, are: Will he get the shot? How will he portray our company?

My clients choose me because they know that not only will I capture the expressive moments that happen throughout a day, but that I am constantly thinking about how to compose each shot with respect to my client's values, goals, and image. For some photographers a shoot is a shoot, and starts when he shows up, ends when he leaves. In my opinion, this couldn't be further from the truth. Before covering your event, I take the time to research what is unique about the event, what is being announced or discussed, and I consider how I can cover the event in the best possible way. I'll work closely with your business to tailor the experience and the images to your precise needs.

Corporate usage of images varies greatly. Some images are intended for use solely on the Web, others for quarterly reports or newsletters, and others still for framed gifts. For this reason, I've included my standard day and hourly rates for corporate event work. Further licensing of images will be arranged before the day of the shoot or before an image is used. Rates, times, and packages are flexible depending on the shoot's requirements.
