One of the best aspects of working freelance in the commercial photographic industry is the challenge of solving the variety of problems you encounter in the process. To me, that's the name of the game. And, since 1974, when I first started making a living in commercial photography, I have run into the full gamut of challenges.
After earning a Bachelor of Science degree in this field, from the University of Texas at Austin in '77, I found work as a forensic photographer for the Regional Crime Lab in San Antonio.
In 1980, I opened Hartman Studio, specializing in Architectural, Advertising, Forensic and Annual Report work. This has led to having photographs published in nine countries and having the opportunity to work with some of the most creative people a photographer could hope for, such as with: A T and T, Detroit Edison, La Quinta, Toyota, Pace Foods, Nikkei, AMD, Dynapak, 3DI, Lowe Enterprises, Hines, PPG, Greenstar-NA, and, Kimberly-Clark.
Rather than just taking photographs, we are creating revenue-producing images for our clients, through the constantly changing palette of creative tools. With the advent of digital photography, there is an expanding, new array of tasks waiting to be conquered... so, call me, or email me for a cost quote - Click here to email your request for a quote.
