Introduction: I am a professional photographer located in the Cleveland area. I specialize mostly in weddings. I am one of the main photographers for ZW Photo, but I also shoot weddings on my own. I have 13 years of experience photographing hundreds of weddings. I also have a bachelor's degree in photojournalism, having worked as a full-time photographer for newspapers for 7 years. I have tons of experience; I am very easy to work with; and I am very reliable. I have all the professional equipment I need plus backups. I give a disc of images with copyright release to all of my wedding couples, and I offer both traditional and coffee table albums. You can check out my talent by going to the ZW Photo website listed here and viewing the weddings in the "proof gallery". I have shot all of these weddings, along with a second shooter, for ZW Photo. I also shoot portraits, pets, commercial, and events, but weddings are, by far, my favorite. It is a fun and exciting day for everyone, and I love capturing all of the emotion of the day in my images.

We hired James to shot our engagement and wedding pictures in 2009. He was very accommodating with our busy work schedules. James came to the sessions with great ideas based on his knowledge of the area and past experiences. In the end we were able to collaborate to create some fantastic photos. With respect to our engagement photos I can offer no constructive thoughts. However, one thing I would like to see is a package that included videography for the wedding day session. Overall, James is a customer centered professional that makes you feel at ease during one of the most exciting days in a your life. Recently we have utilized his expertise to capture the early days of our son's life. The pictures once again turned out great and he was able to workaround the busy feeding schedule of our newborn. I would happily recommend his services!

James shot my wedding April 29, 2011 and he was an amazing photographer, our ceremony was delayed an hour, so our picture session ended up being very rushed. He was very professional and easy to work with, we got all the photos done we wanted and more in a short period of time it was awesome! The pictures came out phenominal we were very happy and his prices were very good for the quality of the work!

FAQs

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    I concentrate mostly on weddings but recently I have been doing portraits, pets, and some commercial work. I enjoy and feel comfortable doing all types of photography. I love doing weddings because it is such a happy and exciting day and everyone is dressed up looking their best. It makes for some really great moments to photograph.

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

    Make sure the photographer has enough experience to make you feel comfortable. Also, make sure you love their work! I'm trying not to be biased, but after the wedding when the music stops an the guests leave and you come back from your wonderful honeymoon, what you will have remaining from your big day are three things: each other, some fantastic memories, and your photos. Over time, your memories may fade a bit (I know mine has) but you will always have your photos to remind you of all the details of that beautiful day! So make sure you hire a great photographer! You don't need to hire the most expensive but search until you find someone experienced and talented within your price range.
