I'm the founder & lead photographer. I've personally helped over +450 clients optimize their profiles. Let's make some magic together. 💪

Languages Spoken: 
English
Area of Town: 
Fort Langley

About my background:

I've been a photographer for over a decade. As soon as I picked up a camera I knew it was something I could do for the rest of my life.

I specialize in working with beginners - people who have never had a photoshoot done before, and quite frankly, aren't excited about getting their photo taken. I'll walk you through the whole process and provide posing & facial expression coaching to help you look natural, candid and confident.

My goal is to give you the best photos you've ever had. It won't look like you hired a photographer to follow you around. Instead, it will look like you just happened to be out enjoying your day, and one of your friends just happened to snap a few candid photos of you. We shoot in real-life scenarios like city streets, coffee shops and parks. That means they don't look too staged or rigid. Instead they'll look natural and effortless.

What I love about photography for dating profiles:

I never dreamed of owning a dating profile photography company. But as soon as I worked with my first few clients, I knew this was something that was really needed.

Most people don't have a single photo of themselves that they love. In fact, the majority of my clients say they're not photogenic, or that they "hate photos of themselves". But trust me, everyone has a good side, you just haven't worked with a photographer that's been willing to find yours yet.

Fave spot around Vancouver for portraits:

There are so many scenic areas in the lower mainland to take portraits, but Fort Langley takes the cake for me. You get a mix of cool coffee shops, interesting architecture, artwork, graffiti, bars, parks, nature and of course the riverfront. It's the perfect spot for capturing photos that are candid and down-to-earth.

Best photoshoot I've ever done.

This was easily the best photoshoot I've ever done. Justin was a pleasure to work with - he clearly knew what he was doing, and his approach to taking photos made it easy to get a lot of quality shots.

I've gotten some of the best photos of myself that I've ever gotten, and will be using them widely across my dating and social media profiles. Overall, more than satisfied with the experience!

Justin was a pleasure to work with. He was super knowledgeable, and able to guide me through the photoshoot with ease. His passion for this work clearly shows, and his attention to detail in pointing out how to look my best was super helpful. Everything from telling me where to place my foot to pointing out that I had a single hair in an awkward place. I would recommend him to anyone getting photos done for online dating.

Justin was a joy to work with. It's my first time but Justin made me feel comfortable. And the encouragements and coaching throughout the shot helped a lot. I also appreciated learning the mechanics (what works and why and how research was done to back them up) of all this.

Justin was really amazing! All of the things promised about working with him - that he would put you at ease, teach you to smile naturally and that you will have lots of fun - were delivered with ease. When I read this photoshoot would be "lots of fun" I thought there was absolutely no way that I would actually enjoy a photoshoot, but I really, honestly had a great time. I haven't gotten my pics back yet, but I completely trust that Justin has my best interest in mind and will deliver great pics.

"Exactly what I needed"

Meeting Justin was great and the photos are exactly what I need for my business and for dating. Meeting with Kimberly Hill was a great experience as well, and I decided to hire her for a three month period we agreed to stretch over five months.  I am really happy with my bio but have not been able to test it yet, so did not give full marks. Kimberly will help me set up a profile when we are ready in about ten days. To maximize impact (so it is not a profile seen already for a week or two). This has been a great experience and made me realize I need to wear my glasses less and that I need to think bigger in my business - just because I look like a celebrity in the shots :) Thanks so much for all of it.

"51 likes on Tinder and 37 on Bumble"

Just a small update from me. Since creating my Tinder and Bumble profiles I've had 51 likes on Tinder and 37 on Bumble. (...) At no point in history of using any dating apps have I ever seen numbers above 10 likes over a month or more. So this is completely foreign territory for me. Your photos really are working!

Justin is clearly passionate about this work, and his skills in photography really show.

He was easy and fun to work with, and very helpful in walking me through the motions of the photoshoot. His attention to detail gave me confidence that I would look good in these photos.

The end result was fantastic, and I have great photos for my profile.

(...) Just wanted to extend my gratitude for Saturday. You did a hell of a job making me feel comfortable throughout the whole thing and took extra time to fit in the session. (...) Bro holy shit. I thought you were a photographer dude, not a magician. Blown away man, speechless. My match rate has gone up by like 10,000% already.
