Bio
Darin Hohman
Bill is one of the most talented photographers I've ever worked with, but I wouldn't label him a photographer. I think of Bill as a witty, intelligent, creative content producer who's an excellent writer and designer and he just happens to be a professional photographer at this moment in time. When you work with Bill you don't just get beautiful pictures, you get to work with someone who wants to work with you to create something better than you ever imagined on your own.
Daniel Bowers
Bill is not only a pleasure to work with, he has an extraordinary understanding of his client's needs and his photography is simply better than most in the business. Bill has helped me numerous times with graphic design, photography, and writing copy. His work is on time and thorough.
