Hello, I'm Russ.

Your New Favorite Photographer

I sometimes wonder if I can find the limits to creativity. I drift away in thought of the next challenge, the next project that fills me with motivation to constantly create. Its a vicious cycle that I happen to quite enjoy.

GREAT PHOTOGRAPHY IS ABOUT DEPTH OF FEELING, NOT DEPTH OF FIELD.

Testimonials

Russ is one of my favorite photographers I’ve ever worked it. He’s extremely professional and made sure the entire shooting experience was fun and comfortable. I could not recommend this photographer enough! We created some ARTWORK!!! I love conceptual photography and I love my shots I got with Russ! I can’t wait to shoot with him in the future.

I had the pleasure of working with Russ on a photoshoot. Russ leaves so much room for creativity by occasionally offering really helpful advice but also to just create a really comfortable setting. He showed me the images on his laptop as we shot, which I loved and I was blown away away by his work straight out of the camera. Russ is a lighting master so my photos were phenomenal even before he did some post editing on the lighting.
My pictures are truly my favorite ones I have ever done.

Courtney Crouse

As someone who went into this with absolutely no experience, Russ made the whole interaction very first time friendly. I was nervous and he made it fun. He was knowledgeable and helpful throughout the session and was able to use his skills to pull off some incredible results. I would highly recommend him as a photographer. Like many artists he has a vision and I enjoyed the glimpses I got.

Russ is amazing to work with! He’s extremely chill and funny and he makes the studio a very fun place to be. He knows exactly how to lighten up the space with lights and with cheer, which makes for a comfortable environment so you don’t have to be nervous when you shoot! I especially recommend him for first time models!

The experience with Russ was awesome. I’ve never done anything like that before and he made me feel welcome and comfortable. We really had a blast shooting photos. Who knew it would be so fun. Not to mention that his knowledge of lighting and attention to detail are top tier. He will bring your vision to life. I will definitely have to do this again.
