Headshot Photographers
James is great! I had him take my headshots for my acting resume. We both worked together to achieve exactly what I was looking for. He genuinely cares about his work, so I was able to feel a shared excitement in the process of getting my headshots. I've already recommended him as a headshot photographer to many of my friends More...

I hired James to take some shots of me at an event for my speaking portfolio. The best part was his communication with me. He was easy to work with and I got some great pics. Thanks James! More...

This was an all-around excellent experience. From our first conversation on the phone, I felt very comfortable with James. He listened to my ideas with interest and respect, and shared his expertise and thoughts. He is a professional with a very creative eye- we took lots of different shots in a variety of areas within the neighborhood, so that I had plenty to choose from. Not a single minute of our session was wasted. It was great to work with someone who just “got” what I was looking for! Turnaround time for initial photos and retouches was fantastic, and the shots are vibrant and capture the aesthetic I wanted to present. He also genuinely seemed excited about our shoot from start to finish, which made it all the more enjoyable. I look forward to working with James again. (Some context: I needed photos for social media and bios/appearance materials, and wanted the look to be urban, fun and colorful). More...
