My 3 year old son had his official first professional shoot. I couldn’t believe how great the experience was and it was all thanks to Kevin. Your professionalism and carisma with my son really let him let loose and be himself. My son’s pictures came out amazing and I can’t wait to shoot with you again!

I wish that I could leave Kevin far more than 5 stars. He is outstanding in every way!! I'm not as photogenic as he somehow captured -- both my daughters were stunned by how great the pictures turned out. My older daughter actually called it a miracle. I can't take a good picture to save my life, but Kevin somehow took many fantastic pictures. I think the reason is how absolutely enjoyable he made the experience. Given my history of being so unphotogenic, I was feeling apprehensive about the photo session. However, Kevin immediately put me at complete ease and made it such a fun experience -- I found myself laughing and smiling so naturally during the entire photoshoot. Also, he took the extra time to coordinate different outfits and help me pick the best ones for the photoshoot. I can't wait to use him again for family photos. I have two young grandsons, and there's no doubt that they would love him -- easy to see Kevin working his magic with them as he did with me!

I needed an author photo taken four years ago, and an actor friend recommended Kevin. Kevin was a delight to work with--he put me totally at ease, and the photos he took of me made me look beautiful. I've literally never had such good photos taken. Since then I've been back to Kevin for two additional shoots (one for an updated author photo, one for publicity photos), and I will never go to anyone else. I've also recommended him to a half-dozen other people for author photos, and his photos of every single one of them look beautiful and natural. I can't recommend him highly enough.

UPDATED REVIEW: This was my second time shooting with Kevin, and he somehow made the experience even better than the first. He was SO helpful in choosing outfits and colors that worked best on camera, and the whole shoot felt really collaborative and easy. He has a way of making you feel comfortable right away, and the results speak for themselves - I look AMAZING. Couldn’t recommend him more!
ORIGINAL REVIEW:I wrote this review to express my sincere gratitude for the absolutely incredible job Kevin did with my headshots. From the moment we started the shoot, his energy was so warm, fun, and easygoing -- it truly matched mine and my moms perfectly! He made the whole experience casual and exciting at the same time, and I couldn't have asked for a better vibe. And the photos... wow. I genuinely have never felt so confident looking at pictures of myself! I am honestly blown away. I've already received so many compliments from family, and I am so proud and excited I get to use them for my career! Kevin is not only an amazing photographer but is also such a joy to work with. I will be using him from now on and recommending him to everyone I know!
