Contemporary Portraits
It’s time to proudly celebrate and embrace your legacy with a contemporary portraiture experience.
When you look back on your life, what memories will you have to reflect upon? How do you plan to preserve these special memories? Whether you’re looking to for a couple’s portrait to tell your love story, an individual portrait to capture your legacy or to an experience to simply commemorate an amazing milestone, these works of art will serve as lasting mementos. This luxe experience begins with you and understanding the “why” and the “how”. Why do you want to create these portraits and how do you envision these living in your home. Will it be a conversation piece displayed in your living room or as canvas art installed on a particular wall? Maybe it will be a private keepsake folio box for just you and your significant other. However you do plan to share these, I promise that you and your family will appreciate the artistry and evocative emotions of your portraits for generations to come.
Testimonials
When’s the last time you’ve had your portrait taken in a professional setting with a luxe experience?
Gary, with the styling assistance of his talented partner Shirin, made my portrait experience incredible. Gary and Shirin truly went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and comfortable, down to the smallest details. I admire his dedication to his craft and it was an honor to work with him. “Obsessed” with these photos is an understatement.
Our portrait sitting with Gary and his team was remarkable. The photographs were for our 30th Anniversary and were shared with us in a very professional manner. Viewing the printed portraits in person brought much happiness. It was just a memorable experience, and we highly recommend Gary for anyone looking to have beautiful portraits created.
I was thrilled to get my portraits created by Gary. He is not just an elite photographer – he is a truly talented artist with an astounding passion for image making. A few hours in his cozy studio flew by leaving me with breathtaking portraits that captured more than my looks – they reflect my mood, my character and my story.
I commissioned Gary for my portrait session and he knocked it out of the park! He’s friendly, very professional and fun to work with. I don’t have much experience in front of the camera, but he made me comfortable and was able to easily direct me. If you’re looking for high quality images and a great experience, you’ve found it.

Louisville Portrait Photographer
As a Louisville portrait photographer, I’ve spent over the past 20 years finding my creative voice and honing my skills within the art of photography. My portrait style is inspired by the lighting style originally created by the old master painter Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn and then infused with modern aesthetics, With every person that I photograph, my goal is to create timeless portraits that can be proudly displayed in their home for years to come. You are unforgettable and so your legacy should be preserved with a curated portrait sitting that results with art that’s meant to live in your home. My award winning portrait work is created through a high end luxe experience. Portraits that capture one’s legacy and essence are complimented by soft, moody lighting with strong emotions set against an array of hand painted Oliphant backdrops. Each of my backdrops have been custom made to my personal style by the same family owned business whose canvases have graced the pages of Vanity Fair and Vogue. As a portrait photographer, my job doesn’t stop at adjusting the settings on my camera, in fact it goes far beyond that by connecting with you as a person to create memorable experience. When’s the last time you’ve stepped into a photography studio with an experience that resonates with your emotions? I would love the opportunity to sit down and chat with you about forming ideas for that very experience, so please feel free to reach out and let’s start planning!
