Clayton J Mitchell Photography Photographer from Alameda, CA

This may sound cliché, but it's true: I fell in love with photography in my childhood. Holding my father's old 35mm Pentax in my hands, there was something I admired about all those dials and buttons which could... somehow... capture what I saw and preserve it forever! Three decades later, that magic is with me. After college, where the requisite "photojournalistic studies abroad" and "endless hours in the darkroom" were fulfilled, I spent several years learning the subtleties of studio lighting while managing local studios. I started my own business in 2006 with a commitment to quality imagery, customer service, and a fun-loving (yet professional!) attitude. In 2012, my wife Shell took over studio management duties to assist with this growing enterprise. Our photography ranges from weddings and events, to family portraits, business headshots, and creative talent. We take the utmost pride in our high quality images and expedient customer service. Our philosophy is simple: the more fun you have, the better your pictures will look!
