In my experience, working with Charlez was great! He has a unique style of shooting that can make a very raw kind of art. The most important part for me was that I felt comfortable around him and his home, where we were shooting, even shot a little bit with his pup! We also discussed some community work he plans for involving his new studio. Helping people who might not have many opportunities to make art or see themselves in a portrait is amazing to me. I would definitely recommend him!
