Clifford was such a joy to work with! I hired him to take kitten photos of our new kitty, Hazel. Clifford was extremely prompt, always, in communication. He was able to get me in to his schedule quickly (before Hazel got too big!) and the price was very affordable for the great quality and effort put into it! Let's just say that Hazel was not a coorperative model... but Clifford didn't miss a beat and was flexible, adjusting strategy to get some precious photos. HUGELY PATIENT working with a lightening speed kitten who always did the opposite of what you wanted. I had Clifford over to my house for the shoot (for Hazel's comfort), and he was great fun to host, very respectful and had a calm energy, which my cats appreciated. He was a hoot to work with. A really fun photo shoot and memories we can have forever. <3 Thanks, Clifford!!

Details: Pet(s) only • One pet • Cat • I'm flexible • I'm flexible • I'm flexible • 1 - 5 shots • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

Cliff was absolutely amazing!He assisted me throughout the entire process, from the very beginning. His approach was incredibly cordial and flexible regarding timing, location, and ideas to capture the best possible photos.His exceptional ability to read the room and match clothing colors was remarkable. He played a crucial role in creating the best photos by skillfully incorporating both the foreground and background elements.Cliff took his time to understand my preferences and provided valuable advice on various color choices, clothing arrangements, and even found the perfect location and lighting.I could not recommend Cliff more, he made the process so easy and so comfortable. Meeting up with him, was like meeting up with an old friend from childhood.
