Portrait Photographers in Gloversville, NY

Clients hire me because I blend professionalism with a personal touch. I’m passionate about creating images that feel real, timeless, and uniquely yours—whether it’s a wedding, portrait session, or special event. As a self-taught photographer with internationally published and award-winning work, I bring both creative vision and technical skill to every shoot. I focus on making each client feel comfortable and confident, so the experience is just as great as the final images. When you work with me, you’re not just hiring a photographer—you’re gaining a partner who truly cares about telling your story.

I am a beginner photographer trying to grow my clientele and portfolio. I will make sure to capture all of your beautiful precious moments in real time. My turn around time for a whole gallery is around 1-2 weeks. I will also offer sneak peek photos within 24 hours and have you leave the session with a complementary polaroid of the session! ☺

That said, I kindly request that you contact me here only if you genuinely value my work and are interested in collaborating. Thank you for your understanding and consideration! Hello! I'm Shane. A proud father to a wonderful Labrador named Mr. Jack, an introvert (INFP), and deeply passionate about the craft of photography. With 11 years of experience, I've explored various sub-genres, honing my ability to seize fleeting moments and play with light. Prior to relocating to upstate NY due to COVID-19, I held the primary photographer role at both Caesars Palace and the Stratosphere in Las Vegas. Additionally, I provided coverage and secondary shooting assistance for photographers at prestigious venues including the Bellagio and The Wynn. My style? Imagine the nostalgic charm of grainy film photos combined with the timeless elegance of a classy '90s aesthetic. The warm, analog feel of VHS movies, where every frame carries a touch of history. Add in vibrant, bold colors that pop with life, creating a vivid, immersive experience. It's not just about capturing an image—it's about evoking a feeling, a real moment, something that resonates beyond the visual and speaks to the soul. My style is a blend of past and present, where every shot is a story, a memory, a work of art. Blending creative Photojournalism & Artistic portraiture.
