Introduction: Thanks for taking a minute to learn a little about me and my passion for photography. To me, photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place… I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them. Do you feel awkward in front of a camera? Most of my clients feel the same way, and my energetic personality allows you to relax and just be yourself so I can create that “Wow” moment to tell your story. I work mainly in the Raleigh/Durham area in several photography categories that you can check out in my Gallery. It’s my wife, two young boys, and our puppy who I love to capture photos of that inspires me in all the work that I do; be it a family photo shoot, capturing the love of a wedding, finding that critical moment in a sporting event, or finding that unique vantage point with a commercial shoot. A good photograph is one that communicates a fact, touches the heart, and leaves the viewer a changed person for having seen it. It is, in a word, effective. As such, I pride myself on being extremely flexible for my clients and work in a very timely fashion to ensure my clients receive their proofs shortly after any shoot I take. I hope I have the opportunity to work with you to transform your vision into a lasting memory.

My entire family came out to NC from around the country for a family reunion. I left a thumbtack inquiry and Steve got back to me within hours. He told me all about the process and cost. He came over 15 minutes earlier and made the process so easy. He is so personable, made it easy and fun for everyone! He got the proofs to us the next day and the actual photos the following day. They are absolutely beautiful! Steve is wonderful, does excellent beautiful work and the value was wonderful. Thank you Steve. My parents are so excited for family pictures.

Steve had fantastic communication throughout the entire process. He was very organized, sent reminders about meetings, and was always early and prepared. I wanted to set up a surprise shoot for a proposal and Steve guided me every step of the way and made the process seamless. He had a quick turn around time with the photos and captured the moment beautifully. I would highly recommend using Steve! I look forward to working with him again!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I work with each customer to customize the package to provide them the best possible price for what they would like as part of their photo shoot.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I take the time to understand the customers expectations and make sure I make note of any specific requests or artistic styling that is the customers preference. During the shoot, we "over communicate" to ensure we are capturing exactly what the customer wants. Finally, after post editing, I ensure I provide the customer with an ample # of shots to review to make their selection from. Of course, I always provide the opportunity for my customers to purchase all of the shots, if they can't make their selection.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
