About
I'm driven by a passion for the art and beauty of photography. I started taking pictures as a hobby, not as a profession. It was something I simply did for enjoyment and creativity. I believe that has translated into pictures that are more authentic, that capture stillness, quietness, and the essence of the subject. I focus on the details, the split-second action, or reaction, that makes or breaks a photo, while keeping in mind the greater vision of what I want to capture. I enjoy photography because I love capturing the fleeting moments in life. It's a challenge to encapsulate specific feelings, emotions, and nuances within a confined, two-dimensional space, but one that is worth trying whenever the occasion arises. I love photography because it is a way of conveying how I feel, in a deeper sense, about something, some place, or someone.

Garland is an excellent photographer and really fun to work with. We had our engagement photos taken months before but they didn't turn out the way we wanted or expected. In large part this is because our prior photographer included this session for free as a wedding package so they didn't put much thought into it or ask us how we wanted it to look. Garland spends a ton of time with his clients to plan the session and to understand what you want the photos to look like. This "pre-planning" seems like something all photographers would do - but from my experiences so far during my engagement and wedding planning it is not the norm. Expect Garland to spend time with you before the shoot to plan your day, and stick to schedule the day of your shoot. After the shoot he goes above and beyond to select the very best photos. On a previously experience with another photographer we were just given hundreds of photos even though some of them were not good -- like we would never post them to social media. There are two trains of thought on this: you probably want some blooper photos to laugh at, but if there are too many, then you're spending a lot of time sifting through photos you wouldn't necessarily show to family or post to social media. Garland takes a TON of photos, but then only picks the very best ones to include as part of your set. He is very, very professional. My fiancé and I were very pleased and impressed. Thanks Garland!!

We had an amazing time with Garland. His quality speaks for itself, but where my review may help is in determining his flexibility, creativity, and personality. He shot my engagement photos (unfortunately IN THE RAIN), and my fiance and I are quite camera shy and not photogenic. Instead of just posing for 2 hours, we were able to just have some fun and be ourselves, and capture some "candid" moments. He made the most of the situation (see: rain), and he allowed me to focus my worry and stress on the single thing that really mattered - the proposal. Everything else fell into place and the memories are sealed just the way we want it - thanks Garland!!

Garland has a great sense of style, and I love his aesthetic. It was his first time meeting my fiance but he quickly got to know him and was able to capture our chemistry perfectly on camera. Both Garland and I agree that we want the natural, candid photos, and Garland definitely captured those moments perfectly. The photoshoot was very fun, and Garland even took extra time to shoot just so we can get the perfect night time photos. My fiance and I loved our engagement photos so much that we asked Garland to be our wedding photographer as well! We cannot wait to see what those photos will look like!

Garland was a spectacular photographer who captured the new addition to our family beautifully. Our family photo-shoot in Gantry Park in LIC was gorgeous, the willow trees and NYC backdrop was amazing in the morning. He gave us examples of family portrait shots ahead of time which allowed us to be at ease with a newborn (it is not easy taking pictures of a newborn who is sleepy, hungry or fussy at times). We received our shots digitally, all high quality and in a matter of a few days we were able to print and frame them on our walls. Overall, Garland did an amazing job, great quality shots, was flexible and worked on our timing (a newborn is no joke) and very professional with the preparation and communication.
