I hired Ed to do a professional headshot and family portraits in the Fall of 2024. First of all, I really like his style and colors on his website compared to other local photographers I found. Ed was attentive and on the day of our initial meetup, it was slated to be over 100 degree in the south bay. He texted me in the morning and then mid-day to gauge how I was feeling about the temperature! Wow I knew I was going to be impressed with him by the level of care that he gives. We ultimately reschedule for another day, because he nor I wanted to be sweaty for our photos. When we finally met, Ed made my family felt so comfortable and relax. It is challenging for me to get my teenage girls to smile in front of my camera, but he was able to capture their best smiles. He talked with us and really made us feel at ease. My professional headshot also turned out beautifully. He had captured the natural lighting of the outdoor environment and made it look like it was a studio photo. I don't know how he does it, but he knows what he is doing with natural lighting. He is by far our family's most favorite photographer and hope to use him again!
