Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I have genuine interest in every one of my clients. If they aren't very happy with their photos, I would consider it a failure on my part. I am big on communicating with my clients about what their preferences are, what ideas they have, what they don't want their photos to look like and especially, what they do want out of the experience. I am patient, I am very friendly and fun, down to earth and I will do my absolute best to take the greatest photos we can. I stand out because the experience will be great as well as the product I produce. I love the challenge every new photographic situation presents and I love helping people look their very best.

I hired Leo to do my families multi-generational portraits. Since Leo was photographing four generations this required a lot of organization in order for the photo shoot to run smoothly and in order. Leo was very easy to talk too and we discussed a lot before the shoot what it was that my family and I were looking for in our pictures. I gave him a list of every picture/group shot I was looking for. Needless to say when the day of the photo shoot came everything went so smoothly and he took a bunch of pictures of each scenrio. My family had a lot of options to choose from which was great. Overall, my family and I were very happy with how the pictures came out. I would definitely recommend hiring Leo and would hire him again for future photo shoots.

My first photo shoot with Leo was earlier this year in February. Of course, being my first time in something I've never done before, I was nervous. Yet, I felt relaxed as the shoot went on and started to feel more comfortable trying different poses and faces...and it was so much fun! Thanks to Leo's guidance I was able to be myself and the result came out natural, which is exactly what I wanted. I definitely recommend him to anyone who is interested in getting their pictures done. He's my go to photographer.

Leo is a great listener (deal breaker for me) and a consummate professional. He's all about getting the best of you in every shot, and isn't that what we all want?! Added plus: His fun and creative partner/wife isn't afraid of getting her hands dirty for the best shot. I highly recommend The Polished Portrait and anxiously look forward to another photo shoot!

I had an amazing experience with Leo and you will too! Not only is Leo meticulous at what he does but he is such a pleasure to work with. I've done a few sessions with him and everytime the end product came out more beautiful than I could have expected. Whether it was inside or outdoors, Leo made sure I felt comfortable and he has a great eye for capturing moments. I highly recommend him and will be working with him in the future!

FAQs

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    Engagement, maternity and newborns, senior grads and headshots.

  • Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

    Took some senior graduation pictures that came out gorgeous. Sun setting in the background. After less than 20 shots, we were done. It's not always this way ever, but everything clicked perfectly and the client was blown away with how beautiful they were.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Ask for examples of his of her work. You can usually tell from first contacting a person and having dialogue with them if they communicate well. In photography, it's important to hire someone who communicates well and gives you lots of feedback.
