Ted D'Ottavio not only has technical prowess behind a camera, but an innate sense of the subject's personality and character that helps make a photo original and exciting. He has great ideas that he joyfully helps the model execute to perfection, but also is a wonderful collaborator and easy to work with. During the editing process, I have also noticed in him a keen eye for the winning photograph in a page of thumbnails. I have worked with Ted on three different shoots, the results of which are already published or en route to online and print magazines and I highly recommend snatching up this photographer right now before it's impossible to book him.

I came to Ted with a strong desire to step away from the 40's - 60's era pin up photo's I typically do. Inspired by 70's pin ups and fashion photography, he nailed the aesthetic completely! I'm thrilled with the results! Ted was a pleasure to work with and I look forward to doing it again!

Ted is amazing. Not only will you walk in and be treated like royalty, but on set he makes you feel like a movie star! And the pictures you walk away with surely prove it. I would recommend him to anyone!
