Birmingham Event Photographers

I've been a pro photographer for over two decades. Started out in newspaper photojournalism but have worked my way into freelancing with business clients for both local and national brands over the past decade.

Clay Carroll is an experienced photographer/videographer located in Birmingham, AL. He has over 8 years of experience shooting weddings, commercial events, real estate, promo video, live music and landscapes.

My passion has been in photography since the age of 16. After graduation I got my first job in Paris, France as an assistant to a commercial photographer. I moved to the US in 1987. I have worked for 3 advertising agencies as an in-house photographer. I have also owned and operated a commercial photo studio in Knoxville, TN, handling 40+ commercial accounts; Watson’s, J.C. Penny, Goody’s, University of Tennessee, Bike Athletics, Schutt Sports, Mercy Health Systems, Virginia Commonwealth University and many more. Many projects required that I managed a team of professionals such as videographers, photographers, makeup artists, talents to meet client’s expectations. My work includes magazine covers and feature articles for publications such as “Le Nouvel Economist” (Paris, France), “CityView Magazine” (TN), “Better Homes & Gardens”, “Oracle Magazine”. From 1998 to 2011, I was the principal photographer for national accounts such as Bush Brothers (Bean Company), Varsity Spirit Cheer, United Cutlery, and Premier Gymnastics. My work also brought me to do graphic design and video. My passion and commitment to my work has kept these clients for me, for years.

Tracy Riggs captures what you are feeling and produces quality, active images. She is patient and kind, and makes getting your picture taken fun and enjoyable. She knows her craft and consistently creates amazing shots that convey great emotion or action. She has worked for newspapers, in portable professional studios, with stock photography, and has shot weddings, events, portraits, nature, and more. Her main passion is shooting action such as performing arts (dance, theatre, or concerts) or sports, but she also loves the challenge of making a corporate event interesting visually. She is always looking for unusual angles and for the shots that others might miss.

Joe has worked closely with one of the largest RV manufacturers in the world taking photos of models in various locations in the United States as well as overseas. No project is more important than the other and the attention to detail to provide the perfect shot is not only strived for as nothing less would be acceptable. Since starting some 9 years ago, I am proud of the accomplishments I have been able to reach and look forward to reaching higher as the days and years go on. My training is all self-taught, watching videos on YouTube, Lynda.com and other resources. You can never stop learning and as equipment has changed over the years, so has the software used and maintaining a current database and knowledge is paramount. I am not limited in any one group when it comes to photography. From sunrises to sunsets, product shoots, sporting events and specialty shoots such as night and firework photography. I strive for perfection because that is what every client deserves. To see a wide variety of my photography, please visit my Zenfolio page at https://josephmorales.zenfolio.com
