Small Business Photographer for Bank of America in Los Angeles

I got to photograph real small business owners for Bank of America with Starcom, from a nursery owner in his greenhouse to a denim designer with her fabric swatches. These are people who built something from scratch, so I wanted them to look proud and completely like themselves. Seeing the photos up in the stores afterward was one of my favorite moments. I’m based in Los Angeles and Asheville, and I travel worldwide for shoots. Bring me your brief. Contact me.
