- Tell us something customers may not know about you.
Some customers may not know I served proudly in the US Army National Guard for 6 years and that I love to just relax and enjoy the nature around me.
- What types of jobs are the most common?

- What do you wish customers knew about your profession or trade?
I wish a lot of people would realize that photography is not as simple as a lot of online sites would make them seem. It’s really hard to get the right photo and to use as little edits as possible.
- Tell us about the project or job that you are most proud of (in the last 12 months).
I am super proud of the wedding photos JAL Images has been taking around the area for clients.
- How did you get started?
I got started in photography when I was 14 years old, by taking random photos of the outdoors and the people around me.
When I turned 18, I became a freelance photographer. As of November 2011, I decided to take my talent and make it my career.
- What would you recommend customers looking to save money?
I'd recommend using JAL Images for a place to get cheap photography packages of family events, school events, or modeling portfolios.
- What brands or products do you work with?
I work with Adobe and Corel to edit photos. I use either Fuji or Canon for my camera choices. I also use a company to print photos for us. If it wasn’t for them, we wouldn’t have such a wonderful turn out of our photography.
- What are the most frequent questions you get from customers? What are the answers?
Q: What kind of photography do you do?
A: At JAL Images we will do any type of photography asked of us.
