About Lucassian Photography
John the photographer
I am a fashion photographer based in Ferndale, just North of Detroit, Michigan. I had my first photographic learning experience when I was 15. After a High school trip to Mexico I realized that my photos lacked something; people. The friends I traveled with and the people I saw and talked to there were not part of my images. While I do still photograph landscapes and objects, most of my photography involves working with people.
I went from enthusiast to entrepreneur in 2003 when I registered my business with the state of Michigan. At first I did mainly location photography, renting studio space when I needed it. I opened my first photography studio in Royal Oak in 2006, but later moved to Ferndale in 2008.
Being somewhat passionate about photography, I started the Metro-Detroit Photography Club in 2004, an organization that today has a strong membership of over 100 members.
In 2008, I attended my first (and second and third) "Ujena Jam" in Mexico. (The Jams are a fashion photography competition put on by Ujena, a swimwear company based in California.) While the Jams were a lot of work, I enjoyed them immensely and managed to place in the top photographers at both the 2nd and 3rd events. You can see some of my work on the Ujenatalent site: click here!
On a personal note, I also enjoy hiking, biking, traveling and cooking. (Here are some of my recipes!)
