Photography has been a lifelong passion for me. I have always recognized the powerful emotional connections between people and photographs - photographs of themselves, of loved ones, lovers, of lives past and present. We all hold images as sacred representations of our memories or fantasies. I have learned that the photographer has great responsibilities to those he or she photographs. I have applied my photography primarily to the needs of women for 30 years. I specialize in giving individualized care and treatment to bring out inner light in a photograph. I spend the extra time you need to be comfortable in front of a camera. Each shoot is especially customized for you. Your makeup, styling, lighting, posing are uniquely your creation with my expert help. You can feel more beautiful through photography.

"A 'shooter' aims and clicks, a 'photographer' sees the light and focuses, an 'artist' sees the light within the subject." - James Zink

"It's a really great to be able to know someone who can capture the aspects of feminine beauty the way you do. You'd be a success no matter what city you lived in because your philosophy, and ideals put you in a very elite class of artistic photographer who stands out anywhere he goes". La Chat Designs, Memphis, Tenn.

"(Your photography) captures the essence of a subject's personality. - Your talent is so refreshing and energizing for women (like me) who want to feel good about the way they look and are intimidated by photos of models and such with perfect bodies and smiles.” - Chrystal R.

"I had a great time on the shoot and you guys really made me feel beautiful. To this day I am using the make-up techniques and everyone keeps talking about my new found confidence. Thank you guys so much!" - Candace S "James, you have such a gift for capturing the unique glamorous essence in each woman. We women are very fortunate to be able to see ourselves through the lens of your creative vision. I feel so lucky to know a modern master of classic pin-up, glamour and sophistication." - La Chat Designs, Memphis, Tenn
