Introduction

I aspire to achieve greatness through professionalism and astounding results. My roots in photography extend as far back in my career at the Academy For Careers in Television and Film and Purchase College. I look forward to your next event--from weddings to bar/bat mitzvah. My work is self-satisfactory--I am not creating art for the purpose of art, but rather create an ethereal set of images that perfectly convey the fantasy desired by my clients. The creation of professional grade images at the end is what drives me to keep on shooting.

What an amazing experience! We cannot say enough about the manner in which our son’s second birthday party was captured. He was so friendly and playful. He captured things I would’ve never witnessed. We’re so beyond grateful and cannot wait to hire you for our next family event. You are truly a visionary and we appreciate you so much! I believe professional photos are the best gift for guest and they loved every photo. I cannot thank you enough for your amazing work! We will definitely be in touch! You have a gift, thank you for sharing it with my family! Until next time!

Mike was really great. He worked with my family so well and made the shoot almost effortless & lots of fun. This group included adults, children, babies and pets! We had our once in a lifetime gathering & he did a fantastic job capturing the essence of my family. The prints came out beautifully, & important too, it was fun for us all. Will always be grateful I found him!!

We are from out of state and planned a family vacation to NYC. As part of that trip we wanted to get some family photos taken with some iconic new york city in the background. Mike worked with our schedule and offered several suggestions for photo locations. On the day of our shoot he was right on time and very engaging and personable. At the end of our shoot he committed to having our photos ready within 7 days and within that timeframe he emailed me a dropbox link with all our photos. I highly recommend mike’s services for anyone else looking for family photos in the nyc area.

Details: Family or children's portrait • Traditional / classic (looking directly at the camera) • Candid (captured in the moment) • Natural / environmental (photographed in an outdoor setting) • Outdoors • Flash drive • Digital or online download • CD / DVD • My home, venue, etc.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Like most photographers, I charge a booking and editing fee and hourly rate. The booking and editing fee is just a base charge to cover equipment costs and of course the time and labor for editing.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
A quick phone call is all that it takes to set up a solution that is perfectly tailored to your event or project. I keep my solutions simple and worry free, your photos will be crisp and large enough to print to a poster size, covering the majority of projects.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
