Biography

Gregory Daniel, M. Photog., Cr., CPP, F-ASP, FDPE, FSA "I was just 12 years old with a borrowed camera when I captured an old man's portrait. Watching tears fall as his weathered hands held that image—'You have a gift,' he said—lit my torch forever. Decades later, I've learned that when you breathe life into others through your art, they illuminate your path forward. Let me help you discover that power."

Gregory Daniel's remarkable journey from a young boy with a borrowed camera to operating prestigious portrait galleries demonstrates the transformative power of meaningful photography. His exceptional talent has earned him the title of Master of Photography, The American Society of Photographers Fellowship, and numerous prestigious accolades. As a founding member of the International Society of Portrait Artists (ISPA) and a Past President of Professional Photographers of America, Greg brings a profound understanding of photography's power to connect and transform.


William Branson III, M. Photog. Cr., Fellow -- ASP, A-BIPP, A-RPS, MPP-MPI "I still remember the early days—standing in my small studio with more hope than answers, unsure how to move forward. I was overwhelmed, undercharging, and trying to make art while surviving. After 52 years of learning, refining, and growing, I now know the power of one decision to change everything. If you’re where I once was, this day is for you. Let me help you step into more clarity, more confidence—and a better way to build your future."

William Branson III has built an illustrious career capturing the essence of his subjects through classic portraiture. His work transcends mere representation to create lasting legacy pieces. William has received Photographer of the Year honors from PPA multiple times, progressing from Bronze to Diamond recognition. His approach proves that creating meaningful portraits is within reach for photographers at every level who are willing to learn the fundamentals of both art and business.
