What should you expect when you shoot with me?
Well, I will keep taking pictures until we are both happy. I am not one to snap off 400 pictures and just hope that one of them turns out good. I always take my time making sure that everything looks good before I take a picture. Almost every single shot I take uses off camera flashes, so with each different location there will be some set up and tear down time. I will try to make the photoshoot as enjoying as possible, and I will try to make sure you do not get bored. I am a pretty easy guy to get along with, so I'm sure we will have a good time.

How much do you charge for a photoshoot?
My prices vary depending on a few different factors. What kind of pictures will we be taking? How many different poses? Studio shots, on location, or both? How many different locations? There are more, but I think you get the point. If you want to know how much a shoot would cost you, just contact me and we can figure it out. I'm sure you will be surprised at how reasonable my prices are compared to other photographers.

What's the deal with getting prints?
After the shoot I will put all the pictures into a gallery and send you a link so you can view them. From that gallery you can pick out the pictures you want edited, (the amount of pictures I will edit will be discussed prior to the shoot) the sizes of those pictures, and the amount. I will edit the pictures and send you the finals to make sure you are satisfied, then send them off to get printed. Once they come in I will show you the receipt and you will pay me that amount. I don't think it's right to charge extra for prints, so I give them to you at cost. Until recently I got all of my printing done through Ritz Pix, but due to them filing bankruptcy I have found a new print shop. From here on out I will be using Buckeye Color Lab. I decided on them because of their high print quality and very reasonable prices.

What do you like doing other than photography?
Good question! I'm a man of many hobbies and I love buying pointless things that I regret later in life. I love hanging out with my beautiful girlfriend, Stephanie, whom you can see as a model in a few of my shots. I love working out and buying an absurd amount of supplements. I was recently introduced to longboarding and I totally dig it. I like body modification and think it is a beautiful form of art. I'm a really big book nerd, and read a lot more than you might think. I always have been and always will be a video game nerd. I am going to college for graphic design but I think my true calling is doing markup for websites, html and CSS are amazing. I have been playing the guitar for a little over four years, and I like to pretend I can play the piano. I am a BlackBerry addict, and I tweet way too much. I also like buying way too many 59/50 hats and shoes. Want to know more? Book a shoot and we can talk then!
