James Michael Photography

Specialties

We specialize in family and senior portraits, wedding and engagement photo sessions, and corporate head shots.

We also cover events from class reunions, senior proms, and benefit galas. We can cover everything from the red carpet arrivals, event portraits, to the actual event.

I prefer to use the environment as my back drop and the sun capturing most of the lighting. I want to make each photograph a unique experience.

One of my biggest pet peeves is poor customer service. We strive to make your entire experience with us enjoyable. We guarantee it.

My first love as a photographer is shooting concerts. I look for that emotion that a musician is channeling through an instrument. I use that insight to look for that moment in people and capture it. It can be as simple as a child excited about seeing a bunny at a pet adoption, two friends reliving an event at a party, or a couple taking engagement pictures.

History

Established in 2013.

As with most photographers, we did not wake up one morning and decide to start a photography business. My love for photography goes back to when I was in Junior High School. I would take pictures of special occasions, backpacking trips and whatever else I discovered. I only had a point-​and-​shoot camera, so the pictures where not that good. Later I graduated to a Pentax 35 mm camera and my pictures began to improve. I took that camera all over the world and took pictures everywhere I traveled. When digital cameras took over, I bought a Canon Rebel. It became much easier to take lots of pictures and get instant feedback. My pictures were good, but I still desired to take better pictures. Last year I purchased a full-​frame Canon camera and that is when I decided to take my photography to the next level. Please check out my website to see firsthand the quality of my work.
