John Heishman Jr.: The Storyteller Behind the Lens
Hey there! I'm John Heishman Jr., and I've been on an incredible photographic journey for over four decades. It all started with a camera in hand and a yearning to capture the world around me when I joined the yearbook team back in high school.
A Passion for People and Photography
For forty years, my focus has been on people—capturing the essence of their lives and the moments that matter most. Portrait photography, boudoir, weddings, high school seniors, and family gatherings have been my canvas, each one offering a unique opportunity to tell stories through the art of imagery.
More Than Just Pixels and Poses
Photography for me isn't just about clicking a button; it's about telling stories through the play of light and shadows. My love for technology and studio lighting has been a guiding force, complemented by my background in cyber security management and computer building. This blend of artistry and technical know-how has allowed me to craft images that truly stand out.
A Tech-Savvy Shutterbug
If there's one thing I've learned, it's that technology is our friend. I thrive on technology. Whether I'm building computers, working on intricate lighting setups, or exploring the latest photography gadgets, I'm always eager to embrace the digital world. It's this technological curiosity that keeps my photography fresh and innovative.
A High-Tech High School Start
I come from a background deeply rooted in science and technology. I was fortunate to attend Thomas Jefferson High School that specialized in the fields of science and technology, which sharpened my analytical thinking and fueled my passion for all things tech. Little did I know that this foundation would play a significant role in my photography journey.
From Northern Virginia to Lake Anna
After spending most of my life in Northern Virginia, I made the move to the picturesque Lake Anna area a few years ago. The breathtaking beauty of this region rekindled my passion for photography.
Where Expertise Meets Passion
Lake Anna Photography is where my lifelong love for photography meets my unique technical skills. It's a place where we blend visions with expertise.
