WHY AN EXPERIENCED EDIT MATTERS
Honest Feedback, Based on Real Assignments.
I’ve spent more than 20 years making and editing photographs under real pressure: over 100 assignments for The New York Times, work featured in National Geographic and the BBC, Leica’s global WITNESS campaign, and five seasons as host and judge of the History Channel’s Photo Face-Off.
I’ll bring that experience to your work. The goal is to help you recognize your strongest photographs, remove the ones that dilute the edit, and build a portfolio that feels deliberate and unmistakably yours.
Stronger Selection
Identify the photographs that carry the work and remove the images that weaken the edit.
Clearer Sequencing
Build a deliberate flow so the photographs support one another and the portfolio holds attention.
Direct Critique
Understand what is working, what is not, and why, without vague praise or generic advice.
A Practical Next Step
Leave with clear priorities for editing, reshooting, developing the project, or presenting the work.
SIMPLE, PERSONAL, ONLINE
How the Portfolio Review Works
Book online and I’ll send you a short questionnaire with instructions for preparing your images. I’ll review the work before we meet. During the 90-minute Zoom session, we’ll edit, sequence, and discuss the portfolio together. You’ll leave with clear priorities and practical next steps.
What Photographers Say About Working With Me
