I cannot adequately express how wonderful it was to have John as our wedding photographer.
He is kind, smart, thorough, talented and funny. Oh, and he takes amazing photographs! Everyone at the wedding raved about John's work.
An experienced photojournalist, John didn't just capture the standard wedding snaps. He captured truly intimate moments that we cherish.
What are you waiting for? Hire him!

Weddings with a photojournalistic flairA great wedding photographer is much like a great photojournalist. Years of experience allow John to capture the special fleeting moments that many others miss. Anticipation, action, creativity and reaction lead to the bride and groom's satisfaction. Many photographers claim to shoot in a photojournalistic style, but only a seasoned photojournalist will deliver the goods on your wedding day. Remember, there are no re-shoots.

Portraiture & family photographyJohn's portraiture and family photography have that "real" feeling that allows viewers to see the personality of the people he photographs. He shoots on location allowing his subjects to feel comfortable in a familiar setting. No studios here folks, just great images.

The Photojournalist's Coffee HouseHere you will find a photo documentary on a homeless community in Covington, Kentucky and photo essays on carnival workers in Ohio, the clowns of the Clyde Beatty Cole Brothers circus and a homeless couple living on the banks of the Hudson River in Jersey City. In 1994, I launched my first web site - the Photojournalist's Coffee House. Today it is a bit of a relic from the past, but still quite interesting and worth checking out.

John's photo blogMy photo blog is a place for random images of daily life. I try to carry a small camera with me whenever I leave the house and look for photos that strike me as interesting or different or just plain graphic. Trying to come up with a new photo almost every day is not easy, and sometimes I am more successful than others. Stop in for a look at what I've been up to recently.

Reviews of John's workJohn wants to satisfy every customer and only takes on jobs where he knows he can excel. A photojournalist is a special photographer who can capture those fleeting moments that happen once in a lifetime. There are enough things in life to worry about, your photographer should not have to be one of them. Be sure to hire a photographer who won't miss those moments - som things happen only once.
