Our Vision for Success
"Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life--think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success." Swami Vivekananda
About the Owner: Robert Gale
" I don't capture an image; it captures me."
I have been doing photography since I was about seven years old. I was raised in the Tampa Bay area and I am proud to call myself a Floridian.
I first got interested in photography by collecting old cameras; most of them older than me! By studying them and how they worked, I learned about basic photography and lighting. While in high school, I learned basic dark room techniques and how to process my own negatives.
In 2010 I attended the former International Academy of Design and Technology (previously Sanford Brown) and received my degree in Professional Photography with honors. My college experience taught me much about the industry and gave me the opportunity to work alongside other professionals within the field. My special field of interests was in weddings, family portraits, and lifestyle portraits.
After graduation, I worked for the school portrait company, Lifetouch (now owned by Shutterfly) in the division of Prestige Portraits. It was a very nice experience photographing senior portraits and sports photography and it taught me about how to connect to my customers. While I was working for Lifetouch, I created my business as a DBA in 2013 and shortly later became a fully insured LLC on 2015.
The business really took off when I purchased my photo booth. It was the shinning gem of my business and it really opened up many possibilities for school dances, private parties, and weddings. Having the photo booth created a nice compliment to the formal portraits. With over 100 photo booth jobs under my belt, with schools as my specialty, the photo booth product line is a strong arm that propels the business to all sorts of possibilities. Alongside the photo booth, I also got into uplighting and monogram lighting to add an additional touch to any event.
My mother, Diane Gale, is the voice of the company because I stutter. She handles a lot of the client phone calls and other communication aspects. She is my right hand woman and is very efficient. I own a lot to her dedication. With the help of her, I am not afraid to expand my business to reach out to as many clients as possible.
Expect many more great things to come!
