About
I put into practice all of the skills and techniques that I mastered during my 14 years at the Chicago Tribune as a staff photographer.
I have developed the company from a small operation into one serving high-end clients like Harpo, Speed TV, Fox TV, Red Bull, Bein and Fushi and The Stradavari Society.
I truly enjoy making story telling images, for all clients!
I fully understand and value the power of great images!
That moment frozen in time, that presents what words cannot.
Everyone needs great photography, an event documented, an entrepreneur, a family, a child (that grow up all too quickly), an engaged couple, portraits for personal or professional use and head shot.
My goal is to make the best image possible for each client's exact needs, on location or in the studio.

John was very friendly,knowledgeable and professional. He was attentive and listened to what I wanted and needed. His studio was clean and Prices are reasonable and fair. I found him to be genuine and a real expert in the field of photography. I hate taking pictures and how I normally look in them however John took such great head shots, I just love them! I will use him again as well as making referrals on his behalf!

Mr. Kringas took two photographs of me, one in my doctoral rigala and the other a head shot for professional documents. He is knowledgeable and friendly and put me at ease for a quality end product.

I'm totally impressed by the level of quality and professionalism that I enjoyed during John's photo session. He makes the whole "process" simple, relaxed and easy (even fun!)...and I'm not one who likes having my picture taken, to say the least. And when he's finished, you'll probably end up doing what I did: staring at his photos and saying, "wow...is that really me?!" Needless to say, I got more "likes" and compliments on this photo than any other photo...plus I got a job offer a week later. The timing -- and my new image -- couldn't have been more perfect. Thank you, John!

John is a highly ambitious, dependable guy who strives for perfection, and it shows in every photograph he delivers. He is great at evaluating and seeking out the best software and hardware technology and does not hesitate to invest whatever money and time it takes to make his photo shoots and process efficient as possible. I've never met anyone like John who works insane hours of the day and night to ensure he delivers the best quality to his clients on time every time.
John has helped us with our family portrait; my daughters senior high school portrait; our LinkedIn photos; and more. I have also seen John's work in the industry as I have built small software integrations that help streamline John's process in shooting retail merchandise.
Keep up the great work John!

I just left John's studio. First I want to say that I am absolutely thrilled with my photos. I needed headshots for my business website and other professional purposes. I hate having my picture taken and was not looking forward to the process. When I arrived at John's studio, I expressed my feelings to him. He assured me that I would not leave there without a photograph that I loved. He was right. I left with not one but four fantastic shots. John is a pleasure to work with and knows exactly how to get the results you want. He is the consummate professional. I've had headshots done by other photographers over the years of my career but not one of them comes close to the beautiful work John does. If there were ten stars available here, I'd pick ten.
