About
I am a DC based portrait, art and product photographer. My career as a photographer began in the US Air Force. Settling in DC after my military service, I worked as a freelancer imaging professionals in DC, including lawyers, political figures and entertainers. Later, working for a major national museum, I had the remarkable experience of imaging indigenous people in remote regions throughout the Western Hemisphere in addition to photographing ancient, historic and contemporary works of art.
My images have been published in numerous books, magazines and websites. They have also been included in many exhibitions as contextualizing photo murals and featured in publicity campaigns. I am now retired and look forward to sharing my expertise with you!

Roger went above and beyond to deliver quality photographs for an extremely reasonable price. Should my husband's law firm need further professional portraits, Roger is the photographer we will call.

Roger was engaging, professional, and did an excellent job. He provided professional photography for a head shot I needed to format on the back cover of my book, Freedom's Foundation. He took a reasonable amount of shots so that we could narrow a selection to a final five, from which we paid to have him retouch two. I needed a quick turnaround to submit the digital files to the company formatting my cover.
After making the final selections, Roger, edited for touch-up and the files were given to me immediately on a flash drive that I was to return to him. When I discovered the stick drive was not compatible with my desktop, Roger addressed the issue quickly by placing the digital files on a disk that was given to me the next day when I returned the portable memory device.
The only thing that would have improved the experience was better communication by both of us. I scheduled our meeting at nine in the morning, thinking that he would be ready for the photo shoot. He thought it was just to meet and was not set-up to shoot, requiring another twenty minute ride back to his studio five hours later. The fault could be placed on both of us and did not effect my overall experience with Roger.
I recommend his services, especially if the customer's need requires a fast turnaround. His prices were better than other professionals that had contacted me.

I love the portrait that Roger created for me! I wanted something for career and professional networking sites. My new portrait combines good eye contact with s pleasant expression to make a good first impression. And my friends all rave that Roger took 10 years off!
