Welcome to Bradford Photography!
Artistic Photography that tells a story
The power of an image to invoke emotion lies in its ability to
capture a moment, convey a feeling, or reveal a truth that resonates
with the viewer.
It's about more than just technical skill - it's about having an eye
for composition, lighting, and the decisive moment that encapsulates the
essence of a subject or scene.
Conveying ideas without words through reflected light is the fundamental challenge and art of photography.
It requires a deep understanding of visual language - how different
elements like color, contrast, framing, and perspective can communicate
meaning and evoke specific responses. A skilled photographer uses these
tools to guide the viewer's eye, create mood, and impart significance to
what might otherwise be an ordinary scene.
With over 38 years of experience across various photographic
disciplines, Bradford Photography has developed the expertise to tackle
this challenge across a wide range of projects.
Whether it's capturing the intimacy of a family portrait, the energy of
a wedding, the polish of commercial work, or the grandeur of
architecture, the goal is always to create images that resonate on an
emotional level.
This wealth of experience translates into an ability to adapt to
any project's unique requirements. By combining technical skill,
creative vision, and a deep understanding of visual storytelling,
Bradford Photography aims to produce images that not only meet the
client's needs but also create lasting emotional connections with
viewers.
The studio's approach recognizes that truly impactful photography goes beyond simply documenting a subject - it's about revealing its essence and crafting a visual narrative that speaks to the heart as well as the eye. This philosophy, coupled with decades of experience across various photographic disciplines, positions Bradford Photography to deliver compelling, emotionally resonant imagery for any project.
A Little Something
Special
There were two subjects I was told not to focus my business on when I started in 1980, kids and pets. My goal is to make an heirloom image that lasts generations. This image shows the dichotomy between the dad holding his daughter up and the gentle support of the moms hands under her daughters neck. Stories in images that reflect the meaning of the roll of a parent in the life of their child is not something a computer can generate.
PET PORTRAIT SESSIONS
Pets are wonderful gifts from God. They are an example of what true unconditional love is. They never demand more than your affection, and give us great joy and physical ease in times of stress. Making a lasting portrait of this relationship is one of the joys of my life.
PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY
Today everyone with a cell phone or a DSLR can be a photographer but artistry, composition, lighting and the ability to use light and shadow along with a passion for imaging are things technology can not do.
SCHEDULING A SESSION
I offer many different kinds of portrait sessions at prices to accommodate all budgets and the needs of the individuals and am a Certified Member of Professional Photographers of America.
