Introduction

I have been in business for over 20 years. I have extreme attention to detail in lighting, editing/retouching and making sure my clients look their best in front of the lens. I shoot tethered to my MacBook in the studio and on location. This is very helpful for my clients, they are able to see the results on the spot. I take time to get to know my clients, it's not just about photography, it's about building relationships. I work well with all personality types and I am great at getting people comfortable, this ensures more great images to choose from. Doing what you love is freedom. Loving what you do is happiness. I love all aspects and genres of photography and post production. I do my best to get it right in camera, but there is a lot of magic that happens in post production. I love seeing the final product and hearing the positive feedback from my clients.

Mark responded to a very tight time schedule by coming to our new facilities and created digital photographs of two of our products and the new facilities as well for the launch of our vastly updated Website. He was both very professional and accomplished and provided the shots we needed earlier than the time budget allowed. PTM Electronics will be using Mark Bograin Photography in the future whenever we need commercial digital photography.

Mark was considerate of my schedule. Was able to do a later shoot. He had fantastic equipment and setup. He ensured promptness with his work and the quality was incredible. He also allowed me to review photos before we ended the session.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is very competitive. I am always open to communication regarding budget when starting a new client. I do my best to work within their budget.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Once the communication process starts, I find out what my clients specific needs are. Then we discuss what the images will be used for, what type of end result they are hoping for, how many final images/files they will need. We discuss whether we will do a session in the studio, on location and lighting for the project.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am very involved with the PPA. They have ongoing online classes, breakout sessions, tips, tricks and many other avenues for staying current and up to date.
