Colin was great to work with, he has a keen eye for detail and knows those little tips and tricks that will bring out the best in your headshot that a lot of photographers miss. Even though he took his time to individually light and set up each different shot, and was quite meticulous in doing so, I never felt rushed or on the clock, it was relaxing all the way and a really pleasant experience. He even bought me a coffee.
