Your questions, answered
Are you specialized in stills only? Yes. I focus on stills capture workflows and delivery.
Do you work in Toronto only? Toronto and the GTA are standard. Travel outside the region is quoted based on logistics.
Can you match an existing naming or delivery standard? Yes. If a production has a standard, I’ll follow it. If not, I can provide a clean default.
How do you handle backups? Redundancy is part of the workflow. Specific requirements can be accommodated based on the project.
Can you support multiple stations or high-volume days? Often, yes. I’ll confirm requirements when we review the scope of work.
Do you offer consulting and teaching beyond Capture One? Yes. I also consult and teach on photographic equipment and related workflows. See Studio workflow consulting above for scope and pricing.
What’s it like to work with you? Calm, organized, and low-friction. I arrive prepared, communicate clearly, and keep the workflow moving without adding noise. You’ll always know what’s happening with capture, selects, backups, and delivery, and I’ll match the standards your production already uses.
