Specialties
Creating beautiful, fun and memorable photography is my passion. I love to capture genuine smiles, playful expressions, meaningful looks, cool scenery, and exciting moments! I’ve done dozens of great parties, private photoshoots, and concerts and it has gained me quite a reputation around my town for taking good pictures.
History
Established in 2011.
HWK Photography got it’s start on Xavier’s phone in 2010 without having a name, he started shooting scenery shots and was compelled to buy a camera. So after receiving money for his 18th birthday, Xavier bought his first DSLR camera from Sears. After that he began shooting his friends during their funnest moments. After sevral months of taking pictures, he realized that his pictures looked a lot better than most of the people he knew were taking and began to pursue it as a career.
In 2012 he went at it full speed ahead and the name «Hard Work King» was born after he got a license plate that had the letters «HWK» on it, when he bought an Impala SS and was inspired by his love of the car.
It wasn’t until 2013 when he met Danielle Thompson that HWK began to really take shape. In a matter of months, they worked together and built what is now known as HWK Photos which is steadily growing in the Pittsburgh area.
