Artisan Imagery Inc

My name is Robert, friends call me Rob, and I have been a photographer/artist for over 20 years.  I am very passionate about what I do and I always strive to learn more and do better with each shoot.  I may seem a bit overzealous at times, I love what I do, but that is the way I am and will be until the day I can no longer handle a camera or any other tool for making art.

"Once you stop LEARNING you stop improving and become stagnant"

                           "One Other Thing To Say"

I am a Photographer, Graphic Designer, Print Maker, Painter, Sculpter and Animator.  I am an artist; I do what I need to do to express my ideas/concepts visually.

My photography is based upon conveying a feeling, telling a story and speaking to the audience with the image. I do not take just a static image that has no meaning, no purpose.  To me there should be more to a photograph than just something to get the viewer to say "Beautiful Image" and "The model is beautiful".  A photograph should reach out and cause the viewer to go "Man, that touched me" or "I really understand what is being said".  The best is when the viewer feels like they are a part of the pic. 

"The only work that matters is the work you are currently doing."

So why do the same thing every time you pick up a camera, pencil, airbrush, paintbrush and what ever else you may use to express yourself?  Man, that is BORING.  Do something different once in a while.  TAKE A FRIGGIN' CHANCE.

I met Dave Brinko, aka "Dumpster Dave" of "Off The Edge Production" who is one of the best Photographers in the market and knows more about photography and lighting than anyone I have ever met or studied, at Kennedy Space Center.  Dave introduced me to the Commercial Photography world and I love it, especially how I can incorporate the things I learned throughout the years and push the bounds of what is perceived as the norm.  The norm being the same perspective, the same poses, the same lighting, the same look, the same location and etc.  The best work I have seen breaks at least one if not all of these norms.  I have seen quite a few that break these norms and their work is outstanding.  Those that do this are the ones that I strive to achieve their level of excellence in photography.  I recognize those photographers and models and give to them my respect while at the same time studying and learning from them.


TFCD work is a possibility.  If I contact you for TFCD and you are agreeable then yes, if you contact me with an idea or a look that gets the ol' creative brain a running then yes.
