Hi, I'm Cole, a dramatic media day and portrait photographer for athletes and seniors. I want every shoot to be something you remember, the day just as much as the photos. I operate out of Binghamton, NY and I'm from Tioga County, PA. I shoot across the Southern Tier of NY and Northern Tier of PA.
70+ media days. 40+ portrait sessions. 3 years. Built from Tioga County PA and Binghamton, NY.
Not in the corny way. Most sports and senior photos look like everyone else's. When you look at a photo I took, you shouldn't just see the person in the frame, you should see who they are. I bring my experience, my eye, and my way of photography. You bring you, not just the version that shows up to your standard school photos, but the you that only you know.
You might be thinking, how do I show you that? Fair question. The prep is built into the shoot. Senior and one-on-one sessions start with a pre-shoot call where we work through Pinterest references, props, locations, and the rest of the plan. Team and group media days run on a different prep: athletes get a custom client guide, coaches get the planning call. When all of that lands in front of the camera, the photo makes you say wow.
Capture your senior year in a way that lasts for life.
A senior session with me is designed to be an experience, not just your regular shoot. It's built around your hobbies, who you are, and your senior year. A day you'll (hopefully) remember for the rest of your life. And in a good way.

WHO I AM
STUDENT OF THE GAME. PHOTOGRAPHER. SPIKEBALL PLAYER.
The photographer Iwished I’d had as an athlete.
I started A.C Media because I wanted to be the photographer I never had as an athlete. The work I make now is the work I would have wanted then.
