More about Charlie B....

What do you love about your job?

I absolutely love when a photo ignites unfiltered emotions of happiness and sadness within myself. And I love the fact that my prized possession is a photo I haven't shot yet. It is between these two extremes of emotions and the unknown that I find photography to be a complete joy. I also hope I never enjoy a genre of photography more so over another. I enjoy all photography. There's just so much to capture in my life time and I don't want to get stuck on that whole preference thing. I find enjoyment in my next shoot no matter what it is. It could be a wedding, a concert, or a special pet that's at the end of its life, it doesn't matter, because the next shoot is a new shoot, a new challenge, a new excitement to capture something different. And after having photographed over a million faces, I've come to one certainty. The person entangled across my lens is not my client or my customer. I don't like those labels. If you find yourself in front of my lens, then the process begins were you and I become friends locked in a creative journey that continues until we both are happily satisfy with the photo. I love what I do. I love the people photography has sprinkled into my life. I love the faraway places photography has taken me to. I am filled with joy that at any second now, you are going to click and become my next new friend.

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

I've done many different types of shoots and as time goes on, I feel more and more confident in my creativity. I can't talk much about my creativity, because I don't know where it comes from. All I know is it's there. But I can talk about my work ethic. And what has made my projects special is a combination of my creativity and my work ethic. I may not be the greatest photographer, but very few can say they work harder than me.

Awards, honors, and recognitions received

Since I've been photographing professionally for 6-years, I've received endless recognition from many happy new friends.

A fun fact about this photographer

I'm an emotional junkie who loves to laugh and cry. So don't assume that just because you catch me crying, I'm sad.
