Taghi is fantastic... He is patient, very responsive, easy to work with and creative no matter how challenging the situation. I'm lucky to have found Taghi for getting our little one as a 1st family photoshoot. I would love to work with Taghi for any of our Photography and Videography needs. More...

Taghi is the entire package. Look no further. He is a proven photographer with a warm personality making it worth all the time it took to find a photographer of his caliber. He has a natural ability to capture the moment and build a lifetime of memory. Taghi was punctual, paid special attention to the details and was an extremely patient taking pictures of our little girl. We are so grateful to have find such a high caliber photographer.

General Photography

Taghi is another level when it comes to photographic skill and professionalism. I can't tell you how refreshing it was to do a shoot with someone of his ability. My wife and I have worked with a variety of photographers and the end result is usually something that looks overly staged or generic. Taghi is on the other end of the spectrum: his shots are original and inspired and he demonstrates a deep understanding of what his clients are looking for. He takes photos you will be proud to hang. We couldn't have been more pleased with the upfront communication, process and end result. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to do a shoot, be it for personal or professional purposes.

Working with Taghi was one of my most memorable shoots! He is professional, kind, fun, and extremely talented. He has amazing vision and pushed to get the best material out of me for the music video we shot that day, but also made me feel extremely comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. We got a few portrait shots that I’ve been able to use for additional content as well. Overall I was overjoyed with the amount of spectacular content I received after the shoot, and left with many wonderful memories of the shoot itself. 10/10 would recommend for video and portrait needs. His video editing was absolutely beautiful as well. More...

My daughter and I had a portrait session with Taghi which turned out to be one the most memorable moment with my little one. It was dynamic and fun. We didn’t feel the pressure to pose, all of it was natural and relaxed. Our portraits are soft and strong at the same time, we love them! More...

I hired Taghi to shoot a portrait for me and IT was the best experience. Professional and fun, I felt very comfortable and was so very pleased with the result ( which is not my usual feeling towards photos of myself)
I would definitely trust him with my “image” in the future ! More...

Q&As

A connection with the subject. And good lighting.

I like to get specific, get in depth understanding, look at references together, to the point that I'm very clear, so the resulting images are aligned with what the client had envisioned in his or her mind.

To connect in that nice subtle, human way. For everyone to walk away the day of the shoot having accomplished something simple yet important. That I was able to see those small, nuanced moments, that only belong to that person

I grabbed a camera when I was 16, and never looked back.

Elevated lighting, 20 years experience, nice easy rapport, solid timeless lighting, subtle expert retouching
