Even before Elliot Powell chose to be a full-time professional photographer and establish his business—Elliot Powell, Photographer—the quality of his images and ease of working with him have been making clients take notice.
Elliot specializes in portrait and event photography, and he takes most pride in the fact that he excels at making people feel comfortable in front of the camera, resulting in genuine, candid photos; as well as his ability to capture the essence of an event and narrate its story through his lens.
But perhaps his ability should come as no surprise: Elliot’s been immersed in the art of photography his whole life. The son of a photographer and graphic designer, Elliot found his passion for the camera at an early age and was encouraged, not only by
his father but by his extended family. “The art of photography is a major part of my family’s heritage, and each member that has taken it up has forged their own style,” Elliot says. Many of his relatives, including aunts, uncles, and cousins, have excelled in various other creative fields too. It was this nurturing environment that fostered his passion, and he began a photography business in high school.
