David is top notch and is the best photographer I have ever worked with. During our project he was professional, punctual, friendly, and provided me all the guidance I needed for some awesome shots! I am not photogenic, but with David's advice I was able to get into better positions for better compositions. David made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire process. He was incredibly accommodating, willing to share ideas that were much needed, and it was clear that he had a great deal of experience and ability as a photographer. It was also really fun!! Highly recommended! The guy worked with the likes of Anthony Bourdain and Martha Stewart for crying out loud.

I needed an experienced photographer who could accommodate my schedule and provide thoughtful consultation. Being fully remote, I wanted headshots that were professional yet showed a bit of personality. David was excellent. Before meeting, his guidance was direct, simple, and helpful. When I arrived, he was able to quickly run the shoot and produce exactly what I was hoping for. The colors, contrast, and his treatment of my skin tone were handled even better than I expected. The gallery was available soon after, and my photos were retouched soon after that. He made it easy!
