Message from Charles:

My job is to make sure that you are having a great time. As you are having this great time, I capture moments that you will cherish forever or for as long as the ad campaign runs. It really is that simple.

Of course, it takes years with a camera in your hand, knowing all possible combinations of settings, quality of light, impeccable timing, precognition & use of the force to truly create an image that evokes feelings. My years of professional experience allow for intuitive camerawork, which in turn allows me to focus on the most important part of our experience... You. Your family. Your love. Your joy. Your passions. Your products and services. Your moment.

I have been a professional photographer since 1996. Starting out in my hometown of Eugene, Oregon, I was an early adopter into digital photography buying my 1st expensive digital camera in 1998. I have worked with a diverse client base, including actors, musicians, politicians, families, start-ups, corporations, dogs, horses, cheerleaders, centenarians & newborns, schools, fraternities & sororities as well as athletes to name a few. I am confident we will have a great time exploring the world of creative possibility. On top of that if I can get you to stop laughing for a moment during our session, we'll create some awesome photos.

I would like to acknowledge and thank Jennifer Grand for capturing the moment in this photo.
