Photo and video.
Thirty years behind a camera in Naperville and the Chicago suburbs. Corporate events, headshots, food, commercial work, video, families, and seniors. One person shoots it, edits it, and delivers it, so there is nobody to chase and nothing to art-direct.
For business.
You need something photographed or filmed and you need it handled. Not managed by you, not chased, not delivered three weeks late with half the shots missing. Handled.
I have been the Naperville Area Chamber of Commerce’s photography and video partner across dozens of events and thousands of delivered images, which is a long way of saying that showing up prepared and delivering on time is the part I am selling.
Event photography
Conferences, galas, golf outings, fundraisers, and corporate events, covered start to finish.
Headshots
Individual and team headshots, on location at your office or on a set I bring.
Business photography
The photographs a business runs on day to day: your team, your space, your work in progress.
Commercial photography
Product, facility, and campaign work, shot to a brief.
Food and hospitality
Menus, dishes, rooms, and the people making it. Shot in your kitchen during service if that is what the pictures need.
Video production
Brand films, interviews, event coverage, and social cutdowns. Shot and edited by the same person.
Editorial
Magazine features and covers, on assignment.
Also: 360 virtual tours of your space for Google Street View and your website.
How it goes
Tell me what you need and when. I send a quote in writing. On the day, I shoot it. Afterward you get the finished files, ready to use.
For families and seniors.
Some things happen once. A family in a good season, a senior year, a milestone with everyone in one place for the first time in years. You cannot reshoot any of it, and nobody wants to regret who they hired.
I have photographed families in this town since 2010.
Family photography
Sessions for families, extended families, and multiple generations in one place.
Senior photos
Senior sessions for the class ahead, including cap and gown in the spring.
How it goes
Pick a session and a date. Every family and senior session includes the complete gallery, the full-resolution files with a print release, and 25 mailed prints of my picks. Sessions start at $850, and the price you see is the price you pay: no weekend fee, no per-person fee, no reveal appointment. Details and the two larger sessions are on the family and senior pages.
The same person, either way.
Whether it is a conference or a family in a park, I am the one holding the camera and the one editing the files. There is no second shooter you have not met and no assistant who returns your email. That is the whole business model, and it is why the calendar is finite.
If what you need is somebody who handles the whole story of your business, not one shoot, that is the other half of what I do. How I work
