Introduction

I am a published active-duty U.S. Navy photojournalist with content available on various civilian and military publications. My superiors have said that they would rather have twenty of me working for them everyday. My promise to you is a professional working attitude, a reasonable price and a product that you can be proud of within a quick deadline. My job allows me to be creative and go above and beyond my normal skill level and limitations

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

My photography and graphic design prices are negotiable and reasonable, depending on the deadline given and amount of work needed. I do offer discounts for military (active duty, reserve, guard, retired, IRR and veteran), law enforcement, fire department, EMT and government personnel. If you are a high school senior with intentions of joining the military, I will give you a discount on your portraits provided you show me official documentation from a military recruiter that lists your departure date for basic training. For graphic design, I only charge a flat fee. I do not charge for editing, sizing or formatting nor do I charge for edits done to a logo one year after services are complete. I will provide you different formats and sizes for each media platform you wish to advertise your business on. I also include a vector file in the event I am not reachable due to my military schedule. I can also provide a template for business cards, pamphlets, flyers, banners, signs and booklets for an additional small fee.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

I will contact the client and ask what work they need done, the details of the assignment and when the deadline is. I will do whatever I can to accommodate their needs to make my job easier and their experience more enjoyable.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I am a 2005 and 2015 graduate of the Defense Information School for both public affairs and military photojournalism. I'm also a 2018 graduate of the Art Institute of Indianapolis with a Bachelor's of Science in Graphic Design.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

I went to a Navy recruiter one summer day in 2004....and the rest is history.

What types of customers have you worked with?

Portrait (pet, family, newborn, children, real estate, high school senior, professional, personality/fantasy, environmental), engagements, weddings, model/lingerie, events, professional headshots (LinkedIn, resumes, etc). I also do graphic and logo design for small/big business owners.

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

January 18, 2019 I've completed a multitude of logos ranging from military, veteran-owned businesses, CBD, firearms, jewelry, clothing, etc. Currently, I'm working on a logo for a Christian school.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

If you're searching for quality work and professionalism from a veteran willing to get the job done in a timely manner, you've come to the right place.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

How long will it take for the professional to complete my project? --That depends on both the client and the professional
