“Lance’s stunning work has captivated us for years–he somehow achieves that magical, effortless blend of candid imagery and jaw-dropping details, leaving us to marvel at the intricacy of every gallery he delivers. Working with him on a wedding day is a breeze; between his quick-witted responses and even faster footwork, he’s got the moment in a blink (on one of his many varieties of cameras), already moving on to anticipate the next. His mix of film and digital yields timeless classics and modern favorites, blending raw emotion and candid moments in a true-to-life color story.
