Client Stories
“The photos looked like the way the night felt.”
“We brought Chris out for a sold-out show and ended up using the photos everywhere—press kits, posters, Spotify canvas, you name it. He somehow managed to catch the crowd, us, and all the tiny in-between moments without ever being in the way.”

FAQ
Answers before you hit send.
If you’re planning a show, event, or session soon, it’s never too early to reach out. Dates book out several weeks in advance.
How far in advance should I book?
For concerts and events, 3–6 weeks’ notice is ideal, especially for weekends. Portrait and branding sessions can sometimes be fit in sooner, but dates are first-come, first-served. If your show or event is last-minute, still reach out—cancellations and openings do happen.
Do you travel to New York City and the Greater Tri-State area?
Yes. Travel within Long Island is typically included. For tours, festivals, and events outside the region, travel and lodging are added on top of the package. Share your city, dates, and rough timeline in the form and we’ll build a quote.
Can I use the photos for promotion, posters, and socials?
Absolutely. Standard packages include usage for personal, promo, and organic social media. If you’re planning paid ads, large-scale prints, or label/brand campaigns, we’ll outline licensing in a simple add-on so everything is cleared up front.
What if I’m awkward in front of the camera?
Most people are—at least at first. Sessions are designed to ease you in: light direction, movement prompts, and time to warm up. We’ll lean into poses and angles that feel natural to you, and you’ll see previews during the shoot so we can adjust together.
What’s your turnaround time?
For concerts and events, a small selection of highlight images can be delivered within 24–48 hours on request, with full galleries typically ready in 7–10 days. Portrait and branding galleries are usually delivered within 10–14 days depending on retouching needs.
