John Michael Simpson

In April 2017, I earned a M.A. in Visual Communication from Ohio University with a focus in Commercial Photography. I have a deep understanding of photographic principles. I stay up-to-date on current digital photography technologies and trends. I am knowledgeable in industry standard photo editing software such as Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, Capture One and Helicon Focus. Additionally, my expertise includes post processing techniques such as photo retouching, photo restoration, color balance, color correction and toning. My experience also includes both the use of Nikon and Canon camera systems as well as Profoto and Paul C. Buff lighting equipment. I have worked as a photographer for Alabama's athletic department as well as Ohio University's library. I have also worked for newspapers, a hospital corporate communications department, a food photography studio, in addition to my own freelance work. I own all of my own equipment and can travel remotely.
