Bio
Patricia Wuillaume
Adam is a very talented photographer/ video maker that has a great eye for both product and people. I had the chance to work closely with him and witnessed first hand how he makes his models feel very comfortable and relaxed and how he brings the best out of anyone that poses for him. During his tenure at PDP he was responsible for all product photography, video creation and a lot of the script writing. The work he did there is impressive and can still be seen all over the internet. He would be a great addition to any company.

Adam is always a pleasure to work with. He is charming and creative, personable and helpful to everyone on the project --and very importantly, always sensitive to my budget. He is inventive and resourceful. Excellent results, delivered on time at a fair price. Will recommend --will hire again.
