Hello
I’m Kris Brubaker
Email: ac69gq@r.postjobfree.com
I live in Mesa, AZ. I am by the client's side every step of the way on their wedding day. I’m there to photograph the grand (or quaint!) scale of their wedding; all the way down to little details that they have been planning for months, creating art pieces that will last for generations. When it comes to the business photography. I am always researching and practicing new techniques added to the ones that are tried-and-true methods. Keeping abreast to the current age of technology and how business is run is key. Skills
