Introduction: I enjoy creating a photo journalistic look to my event photography. My goal is to have my work tell a story about the event that I am shooting. With a little experimentation, I can come up with fun and creative shots that make these moments that much more memorable. For portrait sessions I work with the customer to initially have them be comfortable when being photographed, ultimately aiming to uncover their authentic personality. I like to use the natural beauty of the outdoors whenever possible but can create a studio environment easily at any location by bringing pro-lighting and a variety of backdrops. Depending on the type of portrait session I will sometime recommend props or special wardrobe. I love working with people to have them be themselves, be at ease, and generally just to have fun. In post-production, I enjoy making people look their absolute best by adding digital techniques to create an artistic look to my work. What I have found is that this creates a network of customers who not only refer me to other people, but call me again and again. *Please note that my pricing on Thumbtack is a general estimate and could change based on individual job requirements.

David did a great job taking photos for our family event! He was professional amongst the chaos when you try to take a bunch of family portraits and went with the flow which we appreciated a lot! Also received the photos through Dropbox very quickly.

Dave was absolutely fantastic. He arrived at my place of residence and hit the ground running. He engaged with me and my guests throughout the party. He made every one comfortable while taking their photos. I told him what I had envisioned and he took it from there. I was able to mingle with my guests without worrying about his capabilities because he showed them most adequately. I highly recommend Dave for any occasion.

Dave came to our house for a newborn photo shoot. Dave and his wife were great to work with and made sure we got the shots we wanted. They were very patient with my older toddler as well. Pictures came out great. I would definitely book again!

My family gave our sister a family photo shoot for her 40th Birthday. I live in CO and worked remotely with David to set everything up - he was extremely responsive and professional. I saw the results from the shoot - the pictures were beautiful and my sister was so happy with the results. She said he was a pleasure to work with. I'd highly recommend hiring David for any photography needs!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is determined by the amount of time that I will need to cover an event, or for portraits; the length of time for the creative session which includes set up and breakdown. I generally build in travel time to my pricing unless a travel destination shoot is requested. All my packages include digital editing and advanced retouching services. I can supply props for newborn and children shoots as well.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
In the world of emails and texts I prefer to speak directly with new customers, not only to get a sense of what they are looking for me to produce photographically, but also as an opportunity for me to get to know them personally.
What types of customers have you worked with?
A typical job is to shoot private portraits of individuals, couples or families. I also have been doing a lot of events that include birthday parties, Sweet 16, Quinceanera's and Bat Mitzvah celebrations. For many jobs I work in partnership with my wife Nancy who helps with client posing, makeup and hair and acts as my location coordinator.
