Quality professional headshots / portraits can be photographed in as little as five minutes. Difficult to believe? Well consider the following: When Charlotte-based photographer/ film-maker Kent Smith photographed President Obama (click here to view Kent’s blog and website) at Pinehurst, its unlikely that the President had time to stand idle while Kent fumbled around and […]
Be wary of business headshot photographers (or any portrait photographers for that matter) who proudly promote themselves as “natural light photographers” (this can sometimes translate into “I am a one trick pony and I don’t know how to correctly use flash”). There is nothing wrong with natural light portraits if coupled with studio lights and […]
Commercial photography can be used for billboards, websites, annual reports, trade show banners, brochures, magazine and online advertisements. You take pride in your business and will invest hundreds if not several thousands of dollars to use the aforementioned vehicles to advertise your business. Doesn’t it make sense to use personalized, compelling professional photography that impresses […]

Pickens County, SC – I lugged my camera up to the top of this 75′ waterfall yesterday…Bent like coathangers by a flood in 1928, these twisted railroad tracks are the only fingerprints marking the existence of the now-defunct Appalachian Lumber Company. A sobering reminder of nature’s awesomeness. After staring at them for several minutes, I […]
Sultana: A couple of images from a shoot last week… I was captivated by the saris, the bangles and the lighting. We stopped shooting once twilight hit. Not because of the darkness (I had plenty of strobes handy), but because my fingers (and her face) were starting to freeze as the temperatures plummeted into the […]
