Greg Samborski Photography - Focused on you.

 

My real name is Gregory David Samborski. It's a great name except for the fact that GregoryDavidSamborskiPhotography.com makes for a lousy web address. Should you choose me as your photographer you can just call me Greg. But why would you choose me? Well, I'm glad you asked, because I've condensed my original list of '1,356 Reasons to Hire Me' down to THREE.

 

1. I'M PASSIONATE ABOUT MY CRAFT. I know it's cliche. I spent hours, actually days, coming up with fancy ways to reword this statement but fact of the matter is there is still no acceptable synonym for 'passion' as of yet. Here's an example to back up this claim. In 2009 I completed my 365 Project. Every single day for an entire year I took a self portrait. I'm not talking about the kind where you hold a camera at arms length and press the button. I'm talking about lathering my entire body in corn-syrup, rolling in cherry blossoms I collected off the street, and then using a remote triggered camera and flashes to create the superhero now known as Blossom Man.

 

2. I'M A PLEASURE TO WORK WITH. Sorry, I know there are many other adjectives such as, 'personable', 'reliable' and 'professional' that sound less self indulgent but, I strongly feel 'pleasure to work with' sums it up best. Because in the end, isn't that what you want, someone who put you at ease, listened, delivered as promised and went that extra mile every step of the way?

 

3. I WANT TO IMPRESS YOU. Admittedly my desire for praise is also my weakness. I'm simply not one of those artists who is contented merely by the process of making art. I want others to see what I create and for my work to evoke such strong feelings that I can hear you laugh, see you smile and feel your happiness. Make no mistake, I will do everything in my power to impress you.

 

Yours truly,

Greg

Three reasons why I like this guy: 1. he's amazingly talented at utilizing off-camera flash. 2. he's seen more of south korea than I probably ever will in my lifetime. 3. his photography is a colorful mixture of wit, humor, fantastic lighting, and I'm honored to be one of his contacts :D

Comatosed, I imagine if I met him in the flesh would be the guy that has this bright and wacky idea for a cool thing to do whilst you're all chilling after one too many beers. Only you'll never forget it as he has the camera. There is always something new in his stream, either brand new or openly borrowed and taken to another level I don't know where he gets his energy but it's great to see .. a sort of photography ADHD Comatosed is a real misnomer; comatose he certainly is not!
