Don Barrington Photo

I keep it professional always. I dress to impress, ask many questions about your needs and what your vision is for your shoot session! My turnaround time is usually a few days after the photo shoot unless it's a video shoot, which will take a few weeks at most.

Born and raised on the panhandle of Florida my journey with a camera really didn't begin until finishing a BA in Journalism at the University of Alaska in Fairbanks. Since my time up in Alaska I have always had a camera with me and story to share with anyone willing to listen.

After college, I had the privilege to work with some incredible photography and film companies in Australia, New Zealand and of course here in the United States. I mostly photographed and filmed destination weddings for the first 5 years of my photography and filmmaking career, but eventually I opened my very own photography studio in Spokane, Washington. I ran that photo studio for about 4 years, shooting headshots, families, boudoir, weddings and portraits, until I moved to Seattle to work as a chauffeur for a high end limo service.

But disaster struck in 2020 as Covid-19 shut down all of Seattle and I was out of a job. During the pandemic I tried to do many things: copywriting, business coaching, online marketing, and web developing. All provided a respite from what the news was giving us at the time but nothing turned into monetary compensation after months pursuing all of them.

A year later I relocated to Austin, Texas, where I chose to work with a camera repair shop, inspecting and fixing old digital cameras to resell them on Amazon. I also worked with (link hidden), a national photography company that connects families with free photo shoots to freelance photographers looking for work. I really enjoyed working for Shoott, and since relocating to Miami, I've decided to work with their amazing team again.

Now, since relocating to beautiful, sunny Miami, I have launched a startup branding agency with a few other freelancers, where our focus is to serve the health, wellness and beauty industries in all their marketing, content creation, design and branding needs. We are a one stop shop for brands and influencers looking to build, maintain, and grow their social media accounts, website presence, content creations, and design aesthetics.

Feel free to ask me any questions when it comes to your photography, filmmaking or copywriting needs. I'm your content creator for hire, and remember, you are awesome!
