F.A.Q.

Below is a list of questions I get a lot... or maybe I think I get a lot.  Any questions you're burning to ask that aren't covered below?  Send me email!

Q:  Bertrand?

A:  My dad named me after Bertrand Russell.  If you don't know who he is, you can read about him here.  He's pretty cool.  I like my birth name, but go by Bert.

Q:  What do you do when you're not making photographs?

A:  I'm often spending time with my wife and four-legged children, shown below.  I've also been known to cook fish in inappropriate places and enjoy games of all varieties.  I'm also an avid mountain biker and have been known to play the guitar from time to time.

Q:  What kind of gear do you shoot with?

A:  I currently shoot with a Canon 5D Mark II camera body with professional L-series lenses primarily.  I usually prefer natural lighting, but have lighting equipment available when the mood strikes me or the occasion calls for it.

Q:  What style of photographer are you?

A:  I consider myself a portrait photographer who tends towards photojournalism.  I prefer to photograph moments as they unfold during the day/during a session and I capture those moments for you.

Q:  What do you charge?

A:  That depends on the service you are requesting!
