About David

Portrait and brand photographer - 30 years of expertise
For three decades, I have been photographing CEOs, executives, entrepreneurs, individuals and demanding organizations who value quality and invest in themselves. I create images that become essential to their personal and professional lives. My ability to create the ultimate image goes far beyond the click of the shutter; I create visuals as unique as each of my clients.

Tailor-made services
Flexibility and understanding are the key to our collective success. My heart sees what the eyes of others miss. Merged with the competence to create in the studio and on location, I combine the art and science of photography to guarantee impeccable execution. This results in a seamless experience for you, from pre-production, to production and post-production.

Expertise in corporate branding and international markets
I have worked extensively in partnership with brands and marketing, elevating my professional experience and understanding of visual storytelling. My photography is not an "image". It is a visual narrative that conveys the essence of the person or brand. I guarantee results of the highest quality to meet your expectations.

As an American and European citizen, I work closely with individuals, brands and organizations around the world to create consistency in the American and European markets. My clients extend from Paris to New York and from Los Angeles to Lisbon.

David is a pleasure to work with. We've used him for the headshots of our senior and executive leaders and he is always incredibly professional. He has a real knack for making everyone he photographs feel comfortable and relaxed - which results in photos that give a more natural and approachable feel to the subjects. I was impressed with the research he did on each individual before he photographed them - while not necessary, it certainly helped to break the ice with those who are typically not as comfortable having their photo taken. I cannot recommend David enough and look forward to working with him in the future.
