I specialize in documentary, street, film, and portrait photography. If you want to capture a special moment with a splash of zing and attitude, then I’m your photographer.
I work meticulously with each client, from planning to execution. This includes an initial consultation where we discuss the vibe you're aiming for and your expectations for the shoot. Based on our consultation, I’ll bring the appropriate gear and equipment, and together, we’ll determine the perfect location for the shoot—whether that’s your favorite country club nestled in the mountains or a run-down supermarket in Bushwick.
Unlike most contemporary photographers, my specialty is film photography. If you choose to work with me in this medium, we’ll decide together what kind of film you prefer (Color? B&W? Artsy? Grainy?). I shoot in both 35mm and 120mm formats (35mm is the format in those disposable film cameras, 120mm is bigger and is generally used in landscape & portrait photography) giving us a wide range of options to choose from.

The short answer: It varies.
The long answer: My expense changes depending on the scope and scale of each project that I embark on. Since I try to tailor my service for each client, each photoshoot varies in terms of pricing.
However, I do have a general guide of pricing which I use below:
2 hr photoshoot - $200
Each additional hour - $50
1 roll of film used - $50
Cost of studio space (only if you want a studio session) - $100 / hr
I generally require payment in advance after the initial consultation for a photoshoot, half before the shoot and half after, so that neither of us can run off to Staten Island.
Definitely! That's why I insist on a free consultation first before each photoshoot. I will send you inspirations, past work that might fit your vibe, and examples of each type of film I might want to use if you choose to go analog.
I offer solidarity rates for struggling musicians and artists! Contact me and let's work out a rate that works for you.
That depends! Unlike other photographers who give their clients a set number of photos, I strive to deliver all shots that I think are good and worthy of preserving. After processing, I will send you the shots in a format you can download and use at your leisure (in the highest resolution possible, so that you can print, process, photoshop in a dinosaur, make a personal banner to hang at Times Square).
If you want prints or a physical album, I can deliver that too!
当然!
