| Introduction | Chuck started out shooting faces. He shot so many of them that agents started to notice and began sending him actors, actresses and models for their composite images. Clients started seeing all his images on all those composites and started calling him to shoot commercial assignments and that's how it began. Chuck studied with and attended workshops by Nancy Brown, the late Dean Collins,Scott Kelby, Joe McNally and Chase Jarvis to mention a few of the more notable ones. Picking up on shooting beauty, fashion lifestyle, corporate and related images, he decided to shoot catalog work first so he could develop production experience as well as provide a steady income stream to develop other projects. Being able to handle large productions helped to get clients such as RJ Reynolds, Bacardii, Revlon and The Sports Authority. A switch to digital imaging in the early 90's allowed Chuck to be on the cutting edge of that emerging technology. Being able to produce a shoot and deliver images very quickly became an advantage that was quickly taken. Having studios in Birmingham Alabama and Ft. Lauderdale Florida allows for great flexibility in assignment scheduling. |
