About Anthony

Let's talk about the obvious thing first.

I'm a male photographer doing boudoir work. I'd rather say that directly than wait for you to wonder about it.

I've built the whole day around your comfort. Before your session, we have a consultation where you can ask anything you want, including things that feel too awkward to put in an email. On session day, a professional hair and makeup artist is present the whole time. The studio is private. Nobody walks in without prior arrangement.

Every woman who has come through this studio has said the same thing when it's over: it wasn't weird. I've done the work to make sure it isn't. How the studio is run, how the day is structured, how I talk with clients before they ever arrive.

The reason I take this work seriously is the same reason I take portrait photography seriously: these are real moments in real people's lives, and the people who trust me with them deserve a photographer who treats them that way.

In photography since 2003.

I picked up a camera in 2003 and it never stopped making sense to me. What started as something personal became a business, and the business became something that felt more like a calling. I've worked across portrait photography, commercial work, and editorial. Boudoir is where I've seen the most lasting impact: on confidence, on self-perception, on how women carry themselves after.

I hold the Certified Professional Photographer designation from the Professional Photographers of America. Fewer than 2% of working photographers hold it. I pursued it not because I needed the credential, but because earning it changed how I see light, how I think about composition, and how I approach a session.

The studio is at 106 W Horton St, Suite 3, in Zebulon, just outside Wake Forest. It's a real, permanent space with a consistent setup, not a rotating rental. That matters for boudoir work, where the environment is part of the experience.

What people say when they see their images.

The most common thing women say the first time they see their photos is some version of: "I had no idea I looked like that." Not as a compliment to the photographer. As a genuine surprise about themselves.

That's what good boudoir photography is. Not making someone look different. Making them see what was already there.
