About

I have 16 years of experience as a professional portrait photographer including ten years in Los Angeles where I specialized in actor headshots and business portraits. Now that I'm located in Haslett near East Lansing, I take all sorts of portraits including senior and graduation photos. If you are in need of a local photographer with a studio or who can travel to your location, reach out and let's discuss options.

Adam was very efficient. He set up the equipment and completed the photo shoot under 40 minutes. This included 2 outfit changes. Although my web guy wanted the shots further back, it just wasn't possible in the space we had to work with. I was very impressed with the results and will be using him in the future.
