Darren was a pleasure to work with. He arrived early and discussed my needs to make sure he captured the moment. The photos came out terrific and I have no reservations about recommending him or using him again in the future

If you're looking for a photographer in NOLA, stop now, Darren is the only right choice! I just did a birthday shoot with him for my 30th, it was SO much fun and the results are absolutely amazing! I was coming in from out-of-state and he was so helpful beforehand too with figuring out locations and other details. I really couldn't be happier with the whole experience, and you will be too!

Darren was an absolute dream to work with. He was extremely detailed and put the utmost effort and care into our collaboration. I needed new headshots and media photos for my website and he truly went above and beyond. He made sure to ask me specifics on what I needed, even inquiring about other people in my field who I'd like to emulate so that we could be as specific and successful as possible. In an hour and a half, we were able to get almost 250 INCREDIBLE shots, which he was generous enough to give me full access to after the shoot. His demeanor was warm, welcoming, friendly, and I felt comfortable enough to be myself for the camera. I was very nervous as I am not very experienced with professional photo shoots, but he made me feel confident and excited. He charged $200 an hour, but it is my firm belief that this shoot was worth well over $1000 and ALL of my friends who have seen the results emphatically agree. I can not recommend Darren enough!

Details: Solo portrait • Traditional / classic (looking directly at the camera) • Candid (captured in the moment) • Artistic (focus on composition, lighting) • Natural / environmental (photographed in an outdoor setting) • Outdoors • Digital or online download • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.
