MEET ROD EVANS

Rod, in his own words...

"With a 30-year career in portrait photography, I’ve had the privilege of contributing my knowledge and insights at a variety of national and regional photography conferences, My work has been featured on the cover and pages of national magazines, books, and has been featured in industry training videos, all aimed at uplifting the art of photography. My talks have often revolved around enhancing photography through the infusion of painting techniques, mastering the art of posing, optimizing lighting, and integrating the timeless wisdom of the old masters into modern photography. At the core of my being, I hold the belief that everyone possesses an inherent beauty and a unique story worth telling. This conviction drives my passion for portrait photography."
