‼️ ➡️ PLEASE READ BEFORE REACHING OUT: On Thumbtack, we PAY each time you reach out. Thumbtack is an awesome way to connect with clients, but please only reach out if you're serious about working with us!
My process is really simple:
1. You want to work with me (thank you by the way!)
2. I send over a contract and an invoice for a 50% down deposit of the gig. This books you on my calendar.
3. I show up to your gig and take some stunning photos!
4. I turn around the photos in under 48 hours.
5. You have the option to request edits be done on any of the photos.
6. The final 50% for the gig will be requested before you get the final delivery of your photos in high resolution.
My focus with photography is always about the proper story. Every photo shares a story. My competitors will give you the photo you ask for, I will guarantee you the photo you requested.

All five items are excellent where Justin is concerned.he showed up on time and we got started right away.in no time we were done and though it was a special shoot, the price was a good value. I'm planning to book a family event with him.he is so professional and a great personality. He put me at ease and gave me what I hoped for.if you are wise. You will book him.be wise.

Get this man some wine!
I can't say enough positive words about Justin. You will want to speak with him as he takes time to understand exactly what you are looking for in a photographer.
We spoke on and off via phone and text before I proposed to my girlfriend of four years making plans and constructing what I had in mind. When the timing of the proposal didn't go as planned he was quick to adapt and was patient.
Do yourself, co workers or loved ones a favor and consider this photographer for your next special event be it personal or professional. You will not regret it.
My now Fiance was thrilled with the way the evening went, the beautiful photographs afterwards, the entire experience and Justin as a person. He is wonderful with kind, warm and pleasant demeanor.
Make the right choice like I did.
Just reach out to him!
Cheers!

JUSTIN IS AN EXTRAORDINARY PHOTOGRAPHER AND A ONE OF A KIND HUMAN!
I found Justin on a whim and I am SO GLAD I decided to go with him. I needed Justin to take some proposal pics and engagement photos and he absolutely NAILED IT. Not only was he accommodating and flexible with my various requests but he also was incredibly proactive. Having multiple meetings AND site walk throughs to make the day an absolute success. Also we had to reschedule one portion of our shoot, and he was so flexible and made himself available to accommodate use. And the man knows everyone! He walked around the town and knew exactly the perfect spots to take us since I wasn't from the area. He also worked with my vision. He listened to what we had in mind, and executed superbly. And to top it all off he even gave us recommendations on where to eat and grab drinks to celebrate! It is so hard finding quality freelancers but it can be EVEN harder finding quality PEOPLE- and we are blessed to have found both in him! Thank you again Justin, any time I need photos near Detroit- you are the one we will call!
If anyone is wondering whether or not to book Justin- let me help you decide... GO FOR IT, you will certainly not regret!!!

It was so great to work with Justin to capture a launch celebration that I organized on behalf of General Assembly. Justin was punctual and friendly. I hardly noticed that he captured over 200+ photos because he seamlessly interacted with guests, event speakers, and the like! I look forward to booking Justin for other events in the future.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Ask me directly, we can work something out!
My equipment is a Canon 1D X Mark II which is a professional grade camera, with a 24-70 f2.8 lens and a Canon 5D Mark III. This will take care of most situations in daytime or night time.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Working with a customer is always about personality. Your personality will always come out in the photo, and this is where proper introductions are done.
Please share as much information as possible:
- What are the photos/videos for? (Social Media, Website, Print, etc)
- What is the goal of the shoot? (Gain more leads, sell items, promote product, etc)
- Who is your audience/demographic? (Males/Females, Ages, Interests)
- What are your limits? (Not comfortable showing face, skin, body, etc)
This information gives me the ability to change your posture and pose to suit the job more. Remember you dress to impress, and most of that is psychological.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a mechanical engineer by trade and I have been taking photos for approximately 15 years. I started in high school where I founded the school magazine.
