Description

Specialties

I specialize in portraits for clients of all ages. I am great with young children. I am great with people who think they are «not photogenic». I am great with people who are nervous or camera shy.

My clients always tell me how surprisingly easy I am to work with. I hear all the time «Wow, I have never felt that comfortable having my picture taken! I actually had fun!»

I am most proud of hearing «how hard it was to choose a favorite picture! There were so many great shots!»

I really enjoy what I do, and I knock myself out each and every time to provide you with an exceptional customer experience.

History

Established in 1996.

In 1996 I built my very first darkroom & portrait studio in my parents basement when I was still in high school. There is something about capturing a person’s personality on camera that has always inspired me, and so I’ve always been drawn to portrait photography.

I began in my hometown of Milwaukee, WI as an actor. I shot headshots for the local actors and production photos for the local theatre companies.

In 2000 I moved to New York and expanded my practice to include musicians, live concerts, dancers, CD covers, society functions for the social diary, production photos for Broadway and Off-​Broadway shows, and photojournalism for various theatrical publications.

To my delight, I discovered that my method of photographing actors helped doctors, lawyers, authors, politicians, public speakers, and corporate clients to all feel at ease in front of my camera.

Since 2009 I have held special promotions so that my services are affordable to clients of all economic backgrounds.
