'm excited to share that I'll be speaking at SPAC 2027! The team at GotPhoto reached out and invited me to speak on their behalf, sharing what we've learned over the years about sports photography. I'll be teaching Intro to Sports Photography, where we'll explore everything from creating memorable athlete experiences to building efficient workflows and generating consistent revenue. I'm looking forward to connecting with photographers, sharing our experiences, and learning from others in the industry.

Color correction is one of the most overlooked parts of professional photography, but it can completely change how your images feel. In this post, I break down the tools, workflow, and lighting techniques we use in our studio to create clean, consistent skin tones and professional-looking headshots every time.

Headshots might seem like small $200 sessions, but in this post I break down how we turn simple headshot clients into $700+ commercial relationships through strategy, customer experience, behind-the-scenes content, and authentic connection in an AI-driven world.

An impromptu Mother’s Day photo shoot right in our living room turned into one of my favorite sessions in a long time. Using a simple setup with my Canon R5, a speedlight, and a whole lot of family chaos, we captured real moments celebrating my wife, our kids, and the beauty of motherhood at home.

Some photography gear is more than just equipment. In this post, I share why I still hold onto old modifiers, worn out lights, and beat-up tools that helped build our business over the last 14 years. Every piece tells a story, reminds me where we started, and proves you don’t always need the newest gear to create meaningful work.

A great headshot is about more than lighting and posing — it’s about connection. In this post, Leroy Tademy shares how simple conversations during a session help clients relax, build confidence, and create authentic professional portraits that feel approachable, natural, and real.
