Clients Say…
“Ed is my first call whenever my clients have photography needs.His work is impeccable. He doesn't just take beautiful, creative photographs – he captures the moments that tell my clients' stories in the most compelling way.
He's delightful, easy to work with, reliable and a valuable and trusted part of our team.”
— Leigh Lindsey

Supervisor at MP&F
Strategic Communications
“I've hired Ed many times over the last 14 years. His ideas and concepts on photographing any of the "out of the box" situations I put him in completely dwarf any of my own or the people I work with.
His ability to grasp the concept that needs to be relayed in a photo and catch it on film is uncanny.
If you'd like to review some of his work, look no further than your coffee table. If you've got some magazines on it, Ed's work is in at least two of them. I give him my highest recommendation.”

“Ed is beyond talented behind the lens...
He always sees what others do not and his ability to capture and bring into focus life's hidden stories is masterful.
From his portraits, which expose the tucked away elements of his subjects essence, to his sweeping landscapes, which are often an artful study of place and time, I don't know another photographer who can bring so much depth of field and character to light. Love, love, love his work.”
