About James

"I've been a photographer for over 25 years, and the one thing I specialize in is making people look & feel great in front of my camera. We're doing this together - telling your story. And I love that connection. Empathy is important. My goal is to capture you in your best light, while letting your personality shine through in your silly moments, as easily as in your cool or beautiful posed moments. They should all be with a breath and I want you to screw up - because that's where we find the interesting photos. My biggest wish is to take the pressure off of you so that your photo shoot will be fun, exciting, and alive."
