Hi, my name is Richard and I was born along with the help of my parents in New London, CT, but have lived in New York City for most of my life. When meeting me I am sure you will observe my passion for anything to do with photography and related areas. As far as a worker I have a long track record of being loyal, staying with places for many years and am very enthusiastic and passionate especially about photography, video, and graphics. I am an exhibited freelance photographer since 1997 and published internationally, I have also worked with companies being included in the list of the top five photographers for several such as Donner Photographic Inc. I have led teams of photographers on large location shoots keeping track of their various types of reports, CF cards ( jobs ) in a face paced and demanding situations. I am very good at handling any situation that may come up i.e. models, studio owners, parents, executives, children and pets. Setting people at ease is a strong trait I possess. I am efficient, money saving, time saving, organized and believe I would be an asset to your organization. I am very adept to fast pace shooting and productivity environments as having five years experience shooting over two hundred dancers at times on location as well as dance competitions.
