About
Hi, I'm Robert and I LOVE photography. I've had a camera in my hand since I was 15. I'm a graduate of the Fort Lauderdale Art Institute and in the past worked for a few local (Florida) magazines. These days I'm doing mostly portrait (solo, family, graduation and engagement) and sports photography, but I will do really small weddings.
My goal is to create a relaxed atmosphere so you enjoy the experience as much as the final photos, and of course customer satisfaction.
I look forward to working with you

Bob is amazing. He is friendly, accommodating, and very professional. I hired him to take pictures for me in my graduation cap and gown at WPI. He arrived at WPI earlier than our agreed time to check out the place and determine what camera/devices to use. He communicated with me what I wanted. I picked a few places at WPI that I wanted to be photographed at. He then recommends specific filming locations. For example, he suggested that I take photos on stairs, over the bridge, against the ivy-leafed wall, on swings, and under arches. He taught me how to pose at each location. He even took pictures lying on the ground to get the best angle and light. He switched back and forth between different lenses to get the best results. He was very patient. I tend to blink when taking pictures. He always took another photo to make sure I don't blink. The photos are fantastic. I love them all. Overall, he far exceeded my expectations. I recommend him 1000%. I will definitely hire him again in the future.
