JD McCulley

Who are you? I don't mean your name or what you do for a living, but the REAL you!

Exploring the answer to this question is where truly expressive photography really begins. As a photographer I am constantly learning more and more about observing, listening, and focusing on what makes each person fascinating and how to convey that in honest, real-to-life imagery.

I aim to understand how you live and feel as an individual, parent, sibling, lover, or as a child so that I can capture those honest "slice of life" moments that represent a real personal connection; the kind of special moments that preserve and document the story of your life. Whether it be expressed through love, peace, excitement, sensitivity, curiosity or joy it is my role as an artist to find these moments and capture what is unique to you and yours.

While serving the central Alberta area for portraits and weddings, we are available for travel (local & abroad). Portrait collections start at $400 and wedding coverage begins at $3500.

Capture
IMAGE CAPTURE
I concentrate on a style of photography that fits the reality of life! My portraiture meets you where you are and finds you in the midst of your life as it really is. Sure you'll pose and smile for the camera, but only in ways that come natural and are a part of the real you!
FINE ART PROCESSING
The art of photography goes beyond the initial capture. I narrow each shoot down to the best images and spend focused time developing the artistic side of each photo. From retouching, to color correction to special processing effects and textures. Each photo has a voice of its own and it is during this process that I bring it to life.
Present
PRESENT YOUR COLLECTION
The lasting experience in the process is to see your image collection presented in a tangible way that best fits your style. Choose from high-quality Lustre prints, canvas gallery wraps, custom flush mount albums and more.

"JD's passions for people and for art combine to create many wonderful portraits. He has a unique ability to draw out and capture the genuine relationships between people. And his dedication to both artistic and technical excellence means he manually processes every photograph, painting a story behind every picture. Most of all, it was just very easy and relaxing to work with JD because you feel that you can rely on him both as a photographer and as a person." - Derek & Chantal
