Tell Draper Photography

My goal when shooting a job is to capture images that will be treasured for generations to come. I shoot events with a combination style of journalistic/editorial and traditional exposures. Even when shooting posed groups, I try and shoot between the poses because that’s where the real moments happen. I almost always shoot with two cameras as I find it gives me the most creative flexibility AND insurance, should one camera die at a once in a lifetime moment. I come to all assignments with backups of every piece of equipment. I shoot all my own events. Canon. At the moment, my main focus is children’s portraiture, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, and corporate (Abbott Labs, Cartier, Baer Supply…) event and portrait photography. I work out of Vernon Hills, IL. and service Chicago and the suburbs. I'll also travel at an additional fee.
