Booked a photoshoot last minute and Nelson came through! His ideas were beyond creative and impressed me more than any photographer I've ever worked with.

Details: Solo portrait • High fashion (highlights style) • Natural / environmental (photographed in an outdoor setting) • Artistic (focus on composition, lighting) • Candid (captured in the moment) • Traditional / classic (looking directly at the camera) • Outdoors • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

David was phenomenal. He was very punctual, and professional, but also just very real!!! He truly demonstrated a love for his job and care for customers. We chat for the first 30 minutes leading up to my fiancés arrival (I hired David to capture photos of my fiancé and I upon him coming homing from deployment), and it was just really cool and nice! He allowed us to have our own moment together initially without overstepping any boundaries, and got some gorgeous shots of us after we were ready to move things along. The photos are unique and turned out very nice!! If you want someone who’s creative with whatever they’re given, David is for you!

Details: Couples portrait • Candid (captured in the moment) • Traditional / classic (looking directly at the camera) • Office • Physical proofs and prints • My home, venue, etc.

Thumbtack only allows to select three qualities but if I could, I would have also selected quality and value. David was great from start to finish. My fiancé (now husband) is not one to engage in photo shoots/have the patience to pose for photos, but David worked well with us. David captured our intimate marriage ceremony and we received a combination of candid fun photos and some amazing poses that will be with us for a lifetime. Thank you David!
