I am a member of the PPA, Professional Photographers Association and active in local community chambers and civics. I shoot with a Sony A7IV and Sony A7CII mirrorless system. I received my Bachelors of Fine Arts Degree from Columbus State University and worked as a graphic artist. I later joined the United States Air Force and served for 12 years as a graphic designer and photographer. It was here when I hone my skills of creativity and photography. I continued my education in the military with a Masters Degree in Management, suited for starting my business over 20 years ago. I currently reside in the beautiful city of Fort Walton Beach, FL capturing weddings, beach, event and studio photography. I also provide videography work and graphic design.

More about John A....

What do you love about your job?

The best part of capturing portraits is meeting and providing a service to my clients. I'm a people person and social butterfly, so engaging my customers and work is so much fun. I get to create memories that will last a lifetime for people.

What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?

I attempt to make all my shoots special. I approach each job with the attitude of how can I make this moment special. At weddings, it's about capturing the one or two special touches or looks that the couple shares. Family shoots are making sure everyone is happy, smiling and enjoying essence of the current atmosphere. Corporate and studio shoots are making the client comfortable with music or cracking funny jokes. To be honest, it's all fun and each shoot is special.

Awards, honors, and recognitions received

I have won scholarships for my college years. Several military art/photography awards and recognitions. Lastly, contributed and recognized for local civic, chamber and community citations/awards.

A fun fact about this photographer

A fun fact about me is that I am talkative and creative. My life is filled with photography, but my natural talent is an artist/illustrator.
