I was recently interviewed about being a professional photographer and videographer. Check out the full podcast when you have an hour to kill. Thanks to for having me on!

A little personal shoot for some social media videos produced a few decent photos of my favorite mixing bottle that I use for protein shakes. Love how these turned out!

Working with clients to discover what it is THEY want out of the shoot is JUST AS important as the photos themselves.

Understanding and collaborating with your clients is essential for any successful commercial photographer. By taking the time to listen to their vision, you can create images that truly capture their story and message.

Remember, communication is key in turning their ideas into stunning visual content!

I was contacted by the Creative Director at William & Mary Alumni Magazine to photograph portraits of a person for an upcoming featured article in the Spring issue of their magazine. It turned into a connection I wasn't expecting. Her name is Joyce Hill Stoner and she is the Paintings Conservator at the Winterthur museum. You see, I was impacted by the Wyeth family of artists as a child. I didn't until I was an adult that viewing their art as a child on field trips had given me my distinct lighting and look for what would become my signature style in my photography. Joyce, it turns out, is very good friends with Jamie Wyeth and the Wyeth family, even having her portrait painted by Jamie. It was great for me to be able to discuss the Wyeth's with Joyce and helped me to connect for these beautiful portraits attached.

Huge thanks to the staff at William & Mary for bringing me on for this project and thanks to Joyce and her staff at the Winterthur Museum, Garden and Library for hosting me and allowing me to turn your lab into a photo studio.

Good Friday everyone! I'm looking to do a non-paid photoshoot to create some portfolio images for something I'm working on. I am in need of 1-2 models for said shoot. Must be able to shoot during the weekdays sometime over the next 2 weeks for about an hour. Additionally, must have an athletic build and be between the ages of upper teens and 30ish depending on the person. I would like a male and a female, but I'll take what I can get. Would be great to have someone that is currently a professional, semi-professional or collegiate athlete. Must also be located in Lancaster Co.

I will provide photos for trade. Thanks for any help!

Food styling and tone sets the mood for each individual restaurant. The tone and feel of the food photo can guide people to know what the feel of the restaurant will be.
