Meet the Photographer

Hi, I’m Isaiah — the eye behind Lake Effect Lens.

Based in Brooklyn, NY, I specialize in editorial portraiture, live event coverage, and creative lifestyle photography. My focus centers on technical precision, sharp timing, and capturing authentic, unposed moments with clean composition.

Whether working one-on-one for branding portraits or covering high-energy social gatherings and panel events, I prioritize a calm, professional, and adaptable presence behind the camera.

Equipped with professional full-frame Canon mirrorless bodies and fast lenses, every assignment is backed by reliable data redundancy, custom color grading, and prompt communication.

Book a Consultation

Where are you located and how far will you travel?

I am based in Brooklyn, NY, serving the five boroughs, Long Island, and the greater Tri-State area. I am also available for regional and destination travel upon request.

How long does it take to receive my photos?

For private portrait and event commissions, final edited, high-resolution galleries are delivered within 1–2 weeks, with optional 24–48 hour preview selections available. For 2nd shooter assignments, RAW files can be handed off on-site at wrap or uploaded via secure cloud drive within 24 hours.

What gear do you use?

I shoot with professional full-frame Canon mirrorless systems (EOS R6 Mark II) equipped with dual card slots for instant in-camera redundancy. My kit includes fast L-series lenses, high-speed media, and portable on/off-camera flash capabilities for challenging low-light indoor venues and evening receptions.

Do you offer prints or just digital files?

All sessions include private online gallery delivery of high-resolution, professionally color-graded digital files with full personal printing and sharing rights. Physical prints are not provided directly at this time, though your files are fully formatted and optimized for high-end print labs.

How should I prepare for my session?

Prior to our shoot, we will review your preferred locations, timing/lighting conditions, and wardrobe choices. For corporate, branding, or editorial sessions, having outfits pressed and a brief shot list prepared ensures we maximize coverage efficiently.
