Darren was very responsive and flexible. We asked to reschedule and he moved some things around to make it happen. One of our properties did not have electricity, and Darren was still able to provide great photos. He also got us photos the next day. Great experience!

If I could give 100 stars, I would! Darren was responsive, flexible, friendly and professional. Our nonprofit group is visiting New Orleans and we wanted to get professional headshots. He delivered that and ao much more. He gave us incredible food and event recommendations and made us his top priority! When our marketing and fundraising managers showed up with a list of additional team and group shots they needed, Darren didn't even flinch! He took it all in stride and was extremely kind, flexible, and efficient! We finished with time to spare, but somehow still never felt rushed! Our whole team wants to hire him for every event they have planned now. It was fantastic!!!

Details: Professional / business • Office • 11 - 20 people • No outfit changes • Digital or online download • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

I am a professional opera singer and needed a small series of portrait photographies for press and web use. I was looking for the best quality possible and Darren delivered a fantastic product! He has an art degree and has worked in the fashion industry for 20-something years shooting for several magazines including Vogue. With him you will get a serious result and not a run of the mill, plastic, glamour shot. He expertly advised me along the way, and was on top of that a very personable guy. He got the images to me promptly after the shoot and has been repsonsive in our email correspondences before and after, involving me in the selection of and discussion about the best shots. I highly recommend!

Our office of 3 needed individual professional portraits as well as a group photo and were not really looking forward to the experience. I'm so lucky to have found Darren! The communication process was very efficient, he was always quick to respond and made sure to understand our specific needs. On the day of our session, he made our experience enjoyable, even fun! He took multiple shots of each of us in different camera facing angles and using different lighting techniques, and we all found it very helpful that he offered suggestions to us on the best angles and poses for our profiles. Darren also quickly returned the proofs to us, and we had many great options from which to choose. Additionally, he did professional refinishing of the photos we selected, and they are all better than we could have ever hoped! Working with Darren was such as positive and enjoyable experience--it makes me wish I had another reason to take more pictures! When the time comes, I will definitely be contacting Darren and looking forward to working with him again.
