Our Story
As a proud husband and father of five, David's love for photography began at an early age, shooting family moments with film cameras. His formal education in photography began in high school and continued through college. Today, David uses the latest digital cameras, but believes that photography is not just about the tool, but about the eye of the person behind the lens. He has owned a portrait studio in the past, but it wasn't until he started photographing on the beaches of Hilton Head Island that he found his true passion. David's goal is to blur the line between traditional photography and painted art, creating stunning, one-of-a-kind portraits that will be cherished for years to come.
