Howdy! I'm Sean...
I started my photography journey back in the summer of 2008. I wandered the streets of NYC, taking random pictures –mostly blurry at first, trying to learn how to use my brand new Canon EOS Rebel XSi. Before long, I began to impress more than just my family and friends. People began asking how much I charged for photoshoots. Since I didn’t have a portfolio, I said, “Free!” I began to accumulate so much expensive photography gear that I had to start taking on paid gigs. After many, many, many hours spent pixel-peeping in Photoshop, I no longer had any love for photography left in me. It was no longer a hobby. It became a second job.
After doing the last contract, and breaking even financially from all the photography-related expenses, I did what any sane photographer would do. I hired an assisgot rid of all my photography gear. The lenses, bodies, strobes, modifiers, and battery packs all sold quickly, but I wanted no part of photography anymore. So, I sold every single Eneloop battery, sync cable, neck strap, and bag I owned, too! Whenever I saw people taking pictures in Central Park, I looked away. When people I know talked about photography or asked me about it, I plugged my ears.
Fast forward a decade I found myself in Texas! I’ve picked up photography again, but this time a little wiser. I will only do photography when I want, and if I want to.
If you want to book me and I agree to do a shoot, it’s because I actually want to. Therefore, I will give it my best. However, I have a full-time career and a pretty busy life. So, don’t take offense if I say ‘no’. It’s not that I don’t like taking pictures, it’s just that I don’t want to be glued in my seat post processing for hours on end… again. I hope you understand.
See ya around!
