FAQs
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I love talking with new clients to see where they are from and what they have been up to. I often have a client tell me a story while I'm shooting so that I can get them to relax. I also like to tell stories while I am shooting.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I went to Bradley University in Peoria IL and got my B.S. in Communications with a focus on Photography (see what I did there?). I then worked as an assistant to a professional architectural photographer in Chicago. In my free time I volunteered at a small magazine where I eventually became the Photography Director.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I first start taking photos in high school for yearbook and I continued taking photos in college for different organizations. What I really enjoyed about taking photos was that with a camera I could show people an object that they had seen hundreds of times in a totally new and different way.
