As an agency represented model\/actress over the last five years I have worked with a number of companies and agencies. I can truthfully say I have never worked with an individual who I felt more comfortable or relaxed with while shooting.\u00a0 Jim is one of a kind. He is genuine, kind-hearted, and an amazing\u00a0 photographer. His skill is absolutely remarkable. Every time I shoot\u00a0 with him, I know I will have a new &#8220;favorite&#8221; to add to my modeling portfolio. Thank you so much for everything Jim &#8211; it is truly an honor every time we are able to work together.<br \/>\n&#8211;\u00a0 Kristina<\/p>\n<p>FITNESS PORTRAITS<br \/>\nI am an Exercise Physiologist\/Personal Trainer who was in search of a professional photographer to shoot fitness shots for my\u00a0training website.\u00a0 Initially, I was only open to a woman photographer for security reasons, but changed my\u00a0mind\u00a0quickly after meeting with\u00a0Jim.\u00a0 He impressed me with the amount of time he spent researching fitness poses\/shoots prior to our appointment.\u00a0 He was entirely knowledgeable about lighting, angles, locations, poses, etc, both in-studio and\u00a0 on-site\u00a0in a beautiful waterfall setting.\u00a0 He was extremely professional and made me feel completely comfortable despite the fact that I was in minimal clothing!\u00a0 He allowed me to give my input, but made sure to give his professional opinion in order to get the best shot possible.\u00a0 My photos were amazing and were delivered within a minimal amount of time.
