About

I was born in South Carolina and moved to Michigan when I was 17. After graduating high school I went on to join the Army and served my country from 2000-2008. I loved being a soldier but was injured while deployed to Iraq. After getting out of the army I rejoined my family and went back to school. First, for a  degree in motion graphics, then for a degree in photography. I have been taking pictures for six years and love what I do . If you are looking for someone who is passionate and dedicated to their profession and isn't happy until you are, then I am your guy. 

In my 6 years as a professional photographer, I have had the privilege to shoot many events and people. Whether I am restoring a photo, shooting a portrait or a wedding you can rely on me to deliver beautiful, perfectly-lit photos of the highest quality every time.

I am comfortable with many locations and photography styles. The style may differ from assignment to assignment, but my commitment to quality and craft is unwavering. Please see the gallery for examples of my work or visit me at JL Photography on Facebook.
