We’ve had Ched take our baby’s 1 month old pictures, our FIRST family picture together, and our baby girl’s 6 month old milestone pics. Oh and he also took pictures for our baby shower!! At this point, he’s signed up to take all our baby girl’s milestone photos!! For someone who can be awkward in front of the camera, he made us feel comfortable and helped us have fun during the photoshoot. He goes above and beyond to make sure to capture beautiful moments. When his family assisted in our photoshoot too, it was just so much fun because they helped our baby girl show her smiles and played with her. Highly recommend!! More...

Ched is a great photographer! Professional and fun to work with. We took portrait makeup shots and it was cool experimenting with different light setups and backgrounds! When I asked him about his photography process, he was kind enough to show me tips and tricks for my own settings. The final photos turned out beautiful! Loved how he fixed my blemishes but kept the texture of my skin (like Vogue lol), 10/10 would recommend👍🏻 More...

Ched took photos of my husband, Jason after winning 3 gold medals at the 2022 National Transplant Games. Ched captured the essence of who Jason is as an athlete but also the journey he's been through as a heart and kidney transplantee. We told him what photos we were looking for and he added other creative angles to it which just made the photos even more special. These are historical photos that will be passed on to future generations of our family. Thank you Ched for the professionalism and for the personal touch you add to all your photos! More...

Chedric photographed a basketball clinic hosted by our non-profit organization, Bata Sole, last month. He took amazing photos of our young athletes as they practiced drills, laughed with friends, and interacted closely with coaches. He captured the energy of our event, and that of our organization, perfectly through his lens. He is responsive, met specific requests, and returned with edited photos quickly and securely. We are so grateful and highly recommend his work! More...
