Easily one of the most innovative and genuine artists I’ve ever worked with. Never is there a moment without inspiration, respect or pure, raw talent. Continually an honor to collaborate and shoot with. More...
Alana
Truly an artist's artist. Brings such original creativity and beauty to the table, expanding on emotions, expressions and moments to get seriously unique and stylized shots, all while being gracious and uplifting. Can't recommend enough!
Raven McFarlane
I am not comfortable infront of a camera, and I have spent most of my time trying stay behind it. Shooting for the very first time with Sptmbrborn completely changed my perspective on that. He went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. He took time to understand my nerves, created space for them to feel their way through, made the entire shoot centered on my comfort and safety and the result of that can be seen in the incredible shots he captured. That shoot not only boosted my confidence but we also created something beautiful I was really proud of (plus Sptmbrborn is not shy on sharing credit)!! I can not recommended this photographer enough. His soft skills paired with his technical expertise truly set him above and beyond the status quo. Thank you, Sptmbrborn! More...

Working with another artist was amazing. This isnt your regular wedding, birthday, family event photos (although I’m sure they can execute those with ease as well! ) This was an experience. Helped me learn my own angels for the future, and allowed me to be one with the camera. Looking to book again soon!!!! More...

Rodney is very professional but also a joy to work with. After the photo shoots I’ve had with him, he works quick and has always gotten the photos back to me the next day. The quality of the photos are great and his style is creative! More...

Sptmbrborn is very respectful and easy-going, which makes the atmosphere comfortable to model in. He has a creative-eye that makes his work stand out from mainstream portraiture. You will get quality and quantity when booking with him. He is pure genius. More...

First off I have shot with Rodney multiple times and he NEVER fails! He is so kind and sweet and so very accommodating. He makes me feel comfortable, confident, and beautiful. He also shot my daughter and did so AMAZING ! He was so patient with her especially with her being 6 months and being new to the camera. I HIGHLY recommend booking with him. He always executes and NEVER disappoints. More...
What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
A comfortable energy/environment to be natural for. When someone isn't comfortable, or over thinking, I can see that. So I always make the space inviting and the conversation natural between shots. Also good pacing and timing.
