About
"With 120+ five-star Google reviews and more five-star ratings than any photographer on Thumbtack, my work speaks for itself. Search for me online by name and you'll find hundreds of client samples, and reviews across every platform.
Not all photographers are the same. If you're looking for the cheapest option, I'm probably not your guy. If you're looking for a seasoned professional with a downtown Columbus studio, a proven track record with major brands and everyday clients alike, and a process that makes you feel at ease from booking to delivery — let's talk.
Every session includes all high-resolution digital files from the shoot, delivered online with a license to use however you'd like — social media, print, professional profiles, or the side of a building.
Headshot sessions start at $185. Includes all files plus one professionally retouched image. Additional retouched images available at $20 each.
Portrait sessions start at $450. Includes all files plus 20 professionally retouched images. Additional retouched images available at $20 each.
Event photography starts at $300/hour. Half-day and day rates available.
Need prints? I work exclusively with a professional-grade photo lab to deliver quality that matches the photography — at a price that won't surprise you."

I reached out to Harry about a month in advance of a planned engagement. He was extremely easy to work with and made me feel comfortable that I would have a reliable photographer to show up to the right place at the right time. Harry was excellent to work with, communicated throughout the process, and delivered wonderful photos. I highly recommend Harry to trust with your photography needs!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
• Session quote includes hi-resolution digital files that you can post on social media, or the side of a building.
• I don't pay for rankings on Thumbtack, which helps me keep my costs competitive.
• Day rates and quantity price breaks are negotiable.

• Edited files are $20 per file
• Printing can be done by selecting the shopping cart icon directly from your gallery or download the files and hav e them printed wherever you would like.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I majored in visual communication at The Ohio State University. I am also an art director of 20 years and an internationally-published music journalist; but a photographer first.
Becoming a people person, capturing the perfect composition, mastering the technical aspects of the camera, creating an artistic style of retouching, comes from years of experience of engaging with people on both sides of the camera.
