I’m not your typical photographer. I have a tendency to look at images from a film makers standpoint. With this in mind I usually tend to try and get shots that either tell a story or appear to have some form of action going on. I also can do fashion styled shoots, but my focus is usually more on the atmosphere, settings, textures and lighting then the subject. I find a way to make the subject look interesting in whatever setting is chosen. My personal favorite settings are old warehouses, abandend houses or any place that has character.
I don’t work with a flash. I use lights. Whether it be a full studio style light setup or a few small lights placed around the subject to give a particular look. This is the kinda of control I prefer.
I have an expandable backdrop set up that I can bring to shoots allowing for green screen work or to simply have a solid color background. This allows me to take nice solid shots; either close up head shots or full body shots and replace the background with interesting textures our anything that suits your fancy.
I charge $150 + travel expenses for a shoot along with 3 images touched up or manipulated via Photoshop. Additional Photoshop work runs $40/hr.
