More about Brendan O....

What do you love about your job?

I did a photo shoot where I had to both shoot and "cook" for the client. I had that skill base to be able to make fresh pizza dough onset and help style with a professional stylist. This was a full day shoot and the excitement in the client as the shots were revealed. I walked away from this job the most satisfied professionally speaking, from any job. I realized not only I could shoot and get perfect shots for the client but also offer a skill not normally associated with a photographer. This to me was an important point of difference. I always grab a camera with me everywhere I go.

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

I have covered a variety of shoots including weddings, portraits, product and food photography to mention a few. I have invested in high quality mobile flash units which enables me to photograph in large spaces as well as the ability to shoot at vey high resolution in outdoor or even makeshift studio spaces.

Awards, honors, and recognitions received

Unfortunately, any awards were cooking competitions.

A fun fact about this photographer

As a young chef working in France when I was 20, I was interviewed twice for a position to be the personal chef to the late rockstar Prince. However, I lost out on that position.
