“It is always a pleasure to work with Craig. We have a tremendous level of trust in his expertise. He listens to our goals, and provides valuable feedback to help us achieve them. He has a great creative eye and sense of composition, but it’s Craig’s ability to put his subjects at ease and the rapport he has built with our team that makes him our first choice for photography..”Graphic Designer

“Craig has been very professional, creative, and thorough in capturing the essence of our products. The images have effectively conveyed the precision and detail in our designs, illustrations through visuals, that what can be easily considered as mundane ‘hunks of metal’ are actually quite sophisticated and well build machines.”
“The challenge of maneuvering with lighting & photo equipment on the production floor, while not disrupting my employee’s workflow; and getting great images all within budget, is why I would use Craig’s services again for our next project.”CEO
Eagle Supply & Plastics Inc.
“When searching for a photographer to do our brochure and web photo’s we asked printers along with designers as two works with whom. Craig Augustine became our choice to capture the environment of our workers and to present it as the culture it is. The challenge that we all faced was not to lose production time with employees as they go about their job. With Craig’s approach, and experience he not only captured the difference between work areas but brought out the creativity that we overlook as a normal daily routine. The great images reflect what makes each person, and work area special.”President

If you need quality photography and responsive service, I highly recommend Craig for your next job.”Creative Director
