A Few of the Companies that have Trusted our Work
What Clients Have Experienced
“I chose Ken to make on-site portraits of our patient families because of his easy way of directing groups of people who are unaccustomed to being photographed. This is especially important to me because some of the kids are on active cancer treatment and can be uncomfortable about their appearance. Whether it was the patients, parents, or siblings, Ken put everyone at ease with his warmth and professionalism. And we were all delighted with the results!”
Ken has an eye for capturing not just how people look, but how they feel. There’s always a sense of authenticity and warmth in the images that capture people’s personalities, which is hard to do with corporate portraits!
Working with Ken is a complete joy. It feels like working with a trusted friend who also happens to be incredibly skilled at what he does.
“There’s a super relaxed, laid-back vibe to much of Ken’s images and the people he connects with are utterly unfazed by his presence”.
“Ken created an excellent and smooth event once again. The colleagues loved your work, and we look forward to working with you again later this year.”
