I remember picking up a camera when I was 19 years old. Even though I had taken pictures before, the process began to take on a completely different meaning for me around that time - a way to transform the creative ideas in my mind into something tangible, functional and rousing.

After over 19 years of working with organizations, small business owners, individuals and families to produce tailored, quality photography products, I’m still as excited to pick up the camera as I was at 19.

I’ve also grown to employ refined methods of consultation, planning and skill expansion that will continue to serve the quality of these projects into the future.

My clients enjoy an open, collaborative process where their needs are the focus and new visions are realized with care.

“I really enjoyed working with Develon on my professional headshots! It was a fun, easy, collaborative, and (most importantly) comfortable process. I love my photos. It’s so nice to have something that truly represents me and I feel so confident about. I highly recommend Develon if you want to take professional photos no matter the occasion!”

TESTIMONIALS

  • "I FINALLY have a picture of me that I absolutely love! Sometimes I feel awkward in front of the camera, but Develon immediately made me feel comfortable, and the results reflect that. He is an extremely gifted and patient photographer. It’s refreshing to work with someone who is truly passionate about what they do. It’s evident that Develon cares about his craft and he has a strong eye for detail. Everything about my experience was fantastic. 10/10 service I wholeheartedly recommend."

  • “I am so grateful to Vocal Visions for creating such a safe and supportive environment for taking my first professional headshots rocking my bald head. Living with alopecia and chronic illness can make connecting with and loving your body very difficult. Develon provided time and space for me to celebrate and appreciate this body that has gotten me through so much. It was truly a magical, life changing experience working with him. Seeing my lovely noggin captured so beautifully after years of so much pain made me feel so strong and empowered. I am thankful  for the experience to work with such a gifted artist who truly captured, me. I highly recommend scheduling a session with him so you too can see how he captures your sparkle!”

  • "I was immediately intrigued when Develon approached me with this idea. The sessions - one while I was pregnant and one after giving birth - were meaningful, great memories. Develon made sure I was comfortable and felt safe/cared for during the shoots. When I look at the photo, I feel a sense of pride for having created a perfect little human, and a sense of awe for what it means to be a mother."

    Jennifer Hill

  • “We absolutely love our 10-year wedding anniversary pictures! We wanted to recreate a few photos from our special day and include our children. Develon captured such beautiful moments of our family and he made it really fun for the kids. We can’t wait for our next session!”

  • “Working with Develon was seamless, easy and fun! He was able to bring my best self out for some shots even if i didn’t feel my best. It was great being a part of the process of bringing the shots to life, at the end it all really felt like me.”

    Jordan Hicks

  • "Last year Develon took our family Christmas card photos. He did an amazing job and the end product was very unique and memorable. He took the time to meet with us well before our scheduled session to set a tone and vision for the photo shoot. He even helped us with coordinating outfits that would compliment each other. The day of the shoot was smooth and fun, and our own ideas were seamlessly interwoven into Develon’s vision for our portraits. We cannot recommend Vocal Visions enough."

    Mary and Billy Triplett

  • "Develon and I talked about doing a family shoot for a long time. It was just a matter of our family being in one place at the same time! It finally came together, minus one of our sons. We had a blast, and there were 11 of us! Develon picked out some great sites to get the right look! We absolutely love our family photos. It was worth the wait!"
