I am very camera shy but I really needed an updated profile picture. AJ made me feel very safe and comfortable. Also as a woman I felt very safe at the studio partly because of the location, the fact that there are plenty of people around, but mostly because AJ is a professional and committed to providing excellent service. I also noticed that when I walked in the studio he kept the Studio door open which I thought was very sensitive of him to do to help me feel more comfortable. His prices are very reasonable and he put a tremendous amount of effort to make me feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. I love the picture and believe me, there is hardly any pictures of myself that I like. Thank you so much AJ Studios!

AJ provides a variety of photography options. I was able to get dozens of high quality headshots that were promptly sent to me after. Significantly more affordable than competitors as well. You can tell AJ has a ton of experience. I’d highly recommend to anyone seeking photography for any purpose.

AJ was a great and reliable photographer for my proposal photos! He showed up well on time and in the perfect spot. More than that, he was very accommodating and suggested different spots to continue a photoshoot if we wanted. He took great photos and made us feel comfortable throughout the process

We used Alex for my daughter's senior prom pictures at a local park. He was so flexible when we had to slip the start time. Even with limited time, he still took some fabulous pictures and my daughter was elated!!! I would definitely recommend Alex for your photography needs.

FAQs
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I always loved doing Photography, making videos and making podcasts. I graduated with a Computer Science degree so the backend post production was never a problem but later I fell in love being in front of the camera learning poses and how to interact with the subject(s).
I started my first Youtube Channel teaching students online in 2013 while I was in college. I was a teaching assistant for 3 years and loved helping people solve problems and discover their passion in computer science. Having taught online as well as in person and college classes, I have gained a lot of empathy and understanding on the needs of students and how to address them.
What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
- What is your learning style
- Do you want a more hands on or visual learning experience
- Do you enjoy relatable examples or just the hard science ?
