Capture your story where it happens.
Lifestyle, portrait, and brand photography that feels natural, personal, and true to you — on location, in your world.
Hi, I’m David – The Guy Behind the Camera
I believe the best photos don’t just capture a moment—they tell a story. That’s why my goal is to create images that feel natural, timeless, and authentically you.
I grew up in Long Island, NY, went to film school, and fell in love with visual storytelling. Now, I live in Bethlehem, PA, with my wife, our two boys, and our rescue Catahoula, Daisy Mae. Whether I’m photographing a milestone celebration, a branding session, or a corporate headshot, my priority is making sure you feel comfortable, confident, and seen—because that’s when the best photos happen.
"A thing that you see in my pictures is that I was not afraid to fall in love with these people." — Annie Leibovitz
Let’s create something unforgettable — together.

At Frames and Photons, we believe in keeping the process simple and client-friendly. After your session, we’ll curate a proof gallery of the best images — removing duplicates, test shots, and anything that doesn’t meet our quality standards.
From this gallery, you’ll select the number of photos included in your package. Once you’ve made your choices, we’ll deliver your fully edited, high-resolution images.
If you fall in love with more than what’s included, you’ll have the option to purchase additional edited photos. This way, you get both quality control and the freedom to keep more favorites.

Our style is primarily candid, documentary-style photography — capturing real life as it happens. We do occasionally offer studio sessions.

Location ideas
Outfit options
Props or accessories
Any considerations regarding the people being photographed (accessibility, special needs, etc.)

-
Yes! We love our clients and believe referrals are the best compliment. Personal clients receive discounts on future sessions when referring a friend.
-
For most personal sessions, we bring two photographers fully equipped. This provides better coverage and gives you more variety in your final photos. Sometimes we’ll even share fun “b-roll” or outtakes as a bonus — these do not count toward your included photo total and come at no charge.
Please note: while we often work as a two-photographer team, we do not guarantee a second shooter unless it’s booked as an add-on. If you’d like to guarantee two photographers — especially for events or larger groups — we recommend purchasing the Second Shooter Add-On.
