I'm an
Individual
I shoot headshots/portraits, events, and product, and teach classes in photography basics, post-processing, and lighting. While some photographers have a vision (or assembly line) you can be plugged into, I see portraiture as a collaboration. After all, we’re meeting to make a picture of you, so why shouldn’t you have a voice in it? Here are a few critical ways I ask my clients to participate in the photograph: • When you sign up, I’ll ask you for some images you love. This helps me (literally) see what you hope for from our collaboration, and lets us set our goals appropriately. • What do you wear that makes you feel most you? You’ll dress to tell your story—the bold, serious you; the vulnerable you; the curious you; and others. • I’ll design lighting that hews to your style, and your gender expression. • While we shoot, we’ll both choose which images we keep, and which we toss.

Adam R is a great teacher and photographer. I had several individual classes with him and learnt a great deal about the technical side of photography including digital editing. Adam is really good at explaining all aspects of photography and, most importantly, he is a patient teacher. He is also a gifted, creative artist. Therefore he not only teaches the craft of photography but also encourages creativity. I highly recommend Adam. It would be hard to find a better teacher.
