More about James A....
What do you love about your job?
After graduating with a degree in Accountancy, I headed right into the world of corporate financial services to pursue a career as a Certified Public Accountant. My passion for photography and the sense of adventure continued to push me towards a new endeavor. Creating art through my photography is unmatched by any other feeling, and once I began to pursue my passion, I never looked back.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
When working on my fine art, or product photography, I try to embed a meaningful story in every image. I work directly with my clients before any shoots to make sure that my vision is concurrent with their expectations. When working with individuals or groups for portraits or events, I engage them real time to draw out their unique personality and style. I provide encouraging feedback so that they are comfortable throughout the entire process. Sessions should be an enjoyable experience that also produces amazing shots.
Awards, honors, and recognitions received
I received some notoriety for my photography as an amateur, and I always strive to produce my best work and ultimately receive the proper recognition at the professional level.
A fun fact about this photographer
In addition to being a photographer, I also produce videos for clients and run a YouTube channel. I enjoy backpacking and hiking and most notably completed a 200-mile section of the John Muir Trail, located in the Sierra Nevada Mountains.
