    As a professional photographer, I have photographed and managed assignments across a multitude of genre. Including but not limited to portraits (child, family), products, weddings, corporate parties, and large scale events - youth sports, dance competitions, proms. I have used Photoshop and Lightroom throughout my career of over thirty years and consider my skills with each to be at an expert level.

    In addition, I truly enjoy teaching others how to improve their photographs and expand creativity by using the many products within the Adobe Creative Cloud.

    Edward Gonzalez is available for private bookings

    Available for individual instruction, plus photography, portraits, and events. Can typically accommodate requests for most any appointment time, including weekends and holidays. Please inquire for rates and availability.
