Jose is an incredibly professional, personable, and talented photographer. He listened to everything we imagined for our engagement pictures and included his professional input to capture exactly what we were shooting for. Our pictures came out amazing and we couldnt be happier with the entire process begining to end. We would definitely use him again for any photo opportunity.

Jose is awesome. He was very professional,friendly and attentive to what we were looking for and is just looking to make sure everything goes to plan. He gave us great recommendations for it being the first time we do a photo session. If you are looking to book a photographer, search no more. I will definitely be using him in the future! Thanks Jose!

Today my partner and I had photos taken by Jose. Not only was he early to scope out the area we took those amazing photos but also very friendly and very respectful. He guided us and made our photo session easy and fun. We all laughed and he made sure to show us the photos for approval during the session as well. Would 100% work with him again and can’t wait to see how the photos came out. 10/10 would recommend.

Details: Couples portrait • Artistic (focus on composition, lighting) • Natural / environmental (photographed in an outdoor setting) • Traditional / classic (looking directly at the camera) • Candid (captured in the moment) • Outdoors • Digital or online download • At the pro’s location

How did you get started doing this type of work?
I’ve always had a thing for taking photos, since I was about 5. When I was finally old enough to turn it into a career at 18 I definitely jumped at the opportunity and have worked really hard at it since.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I have worked with a wide range of customers. From customers looking for headshots, to maternity photos, to engagement photos, to family portraits, lifestyle photography, etc. I love working with many different kinds of customers.
