Ricky and Crystal
Ricky is a seasoned media professional with over 30 years in film and digital photography. His passion for photography started in High School in the late 1970s after he developed his first film in the school's darkroom. Ricky knew then, this was something he would passionately pursue for the rest of his life.
Ricky started his career as a wedding and special events videographer. His passion for still photography was always in the back of his mind. It was after working as a studio photographer under the legendary Kelly Callahan that he really started pursuing his true passion. "I shot my first wedding and never looked back."
Crystal started out as Ricky's Assistant and Business Partner. Crystal always had a love for photography but only to capture her children's many activities while growing up.
Crystal's life changed while working with Ricky at a conference and he needed a headshot of a little boy giving a speech. Ricky gave Crystal one of his cameras and asked her to just shoot it the best you can, and I will crop it later.
Crystal returned the camera with a jaw dropping portrait and to this day Ricky can't understand, how did you do that? He gave her the camera and said you are amazing. You need to be doing this!
Crystal quickly developed her skills under the watchful eye of Mr. Ricky, and she became an overnight sensation. To see the two of them work an event is inspiring. In June 2023, they turn their business partnership in to a life partnership as husband and wife.
Hire them and you will bring love and skills to your event.
