Friends and family. I’m reaching out to you because one of my best friends, and fraternity brother, is in need of support. In college, when I had my foot surgeries and couldn’t climb my three flights of stairs Lawrence opened his door to me and took care of me. This man even did my laundry 😂. These are the type of friends you meet in college. Right now, he and his family are in need of love, support, and community. His mom has endured some serious health battles over the last few yrs and currently in the hospital. The GoFundMe goes into more details, but it would mean so much to be able to support my brother in this time of true need. Please read the GoFundMe and if you have a couple bucks it would mean a lot.

Hey everyone, I'm Ellsworth. I reach out to you today with a sincere request to support a f… Ellsworth Neal needs your support for Verna Haynes and family

“It’s not about the perfect picture, it’s about capturing the perfect moment”. My style rests in capturing moments that evoke emotion, and spark memories of the joy and love on your special day. Many of my clients are eager to express that they care less about posing, and more about raw, authentic moments; and that is were my specialty lies. Schedule your obligation-free consultation. I’d love to meet with you!

As photographers we all have our own style. Some are dramatic and gloomy, some are light and airy, some rely heavily on photoshop, some still shoot film etc. As someone who began in the days of film, developing in the darkroom, I’ve always been a fan of candid. In fact I’ve never edited a wedding in photoshop. Yes I edit, but my style doesn’t rest on photoshop. It’s rooted in candid, raw, authentic moments. I don’t aim to create great pictures, I aim to capture great moments that make photoshop unnecessary.

Despite a few minor edits, this image was 95% straight out of my camera. When the bride first showed me the location in AZ, I was instantly excited. I knew I’d capture great moments. This wedding was so much fun, and I was truly honored that not only was I selected to be a pivotal part of their day, but of all the photographers in Arizona, they decided they’d fly me and my team to Arizona to capture their big day. I’m grateful, appreciative, and happy that I was able to be a part of this moment in their lives. There are lots of photographers who despise weddings, but I love the pressure, the test, and the intersection of happiness, fashion, beauty, family, and fun on a wedding day!

My Journey Into Wedding Photography

I purchased my first “professional” camera in the summer of 2000, it was a Nikon N70 film camera. In my eyes is was professional because prior to that I’d only owned a Kodak Advantix, and frequently purchased disposable camera from Walgreens. As a freshman at the University of Illinois at Urbana, my camera was my sidekick. Wherever I went, my Nikon was attached at the hip. Being the guy constantly “flicking”, led to the nickname “Flikk” in which in 2016 became my legal name. Yes, actually on my birth certificate, legal. While in love with the art of photography, it wasn’t until I shot my first wedding, on film, on June 23, 2001 that I realized wedding photography was destined to be a part of my journey as a photographic artist. Sounds cool right? Anyhow, that’s a brief synopsis of my relationship with love for the art of photography, and weddings.
