About
I’m a commercial photographer and FAA-certified drone pilot with nearly three decades of experience. Whether I’m photographing corporate headshots, real estate and architectural spaces, food in a restaurant, or capturing aerial images and video, I bring the same care and attention to every project.
My work is all about details: choosing the right location, composing a clean, compelling shot, and waiting for—or creating—the perfect light. As a one-person studio, you work directly with me from planning through delivery, so nothing gets lost in translation.
If you’re looking for professional, consistent images that reflect your brand and tell your story clearly, I’d be happy to talk about your next shoot.

Charles was by far the best photographer I've ever worked with. Not only was his equipment top notch, but his experience let him set up, pose and take the best shots for the venue. He produced top tier photos quickly with a streamlined, professional and prompt product.
Details: Professional headshot • Traditional / classic (looking directly at the camera) • Artistic (focus on composition, lighting) • Candid (captured in the moment) • Outdoors • Digital or online download • My home, venue, etc.

Charles was outstanding! He competed an office shoot of 23 of my employees. He was on time both days and efficiently set up and got underway. We will definitely use him again

Charles was the ultimate professional from the time we spoke and emailed prior the photo-shoot to the actual photo-shoot and beyond. He was patient, relaxed and wanted to make sure we got the right shots. The photos came out great. A link to the proofs were sent super fast and once we chose our final shots, we received a link to touched up photos within days. We highly recommend Charles!!
