Moments for life

Do you want to get amazing pictures that you can treasure for the rest of your life, well to me, Derrick delivers more than that, he really captures those glimpse of life that when you rewatch them it really takes you back. It’s hard to describe the incredible job and dedication he puts on his work. This is the second family wedding he’s done for us and he never disappoints. He’s a great guy, very talented and super helpful. You will not be disappointed!

Creative and very flexible

We used him for our graduation photos and he helped us capture beautiful photos that came out better than I had even imagined, while being incredibly flexible with my weird hours and even drove out to our location. He made socially distant pictures stunning and fun. Cannot recommend him enough. I have already been recommending him to my friends graduating in December.

Flexibility Maestro

Derrick was a wonderful addition to our special day! While working a wedding in the middle of a pandemic maybe difficult for some photographers, you wouldn't know with Derrick. His calm and capable demeanor allowed him to flow with our very hectic day, since we were working around the nap time of my 5 month old nephew and of course trying to be as safe as possible with Covid. He had great ideas for pictures and was amazing at capturing candid photos as well, leaving us with a plethora of beautiful pictures to choose from. I would highly recommend this wonderful photographer for anyone who wants an amazing deal!

Director

My name is Derrick Parsons, and I am a professional photographer based in Madison, Wisconsin. In this fast-paced world, photography is a way that we can hit pause.

I became truly invested in photography during my time at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. I was fortunate to study under some of the best photojournalists in the world while pursuing a Minor in Photography. I received my Bachelor of Science in Life Science Communications and a Minor in Photography in May of 2020.

What I strive for most in my practice is to give my clients an incredibly positive experience. I want it to be easy and fun, no matter the event. I find that being honest through the camera gives the best results. I strive to create a positive environment for the people I work with to create the best experience possible.

For me, photography is a collaborative project. I work with clients to create a timeless image that can be looked back on for decades and still get the same emotion from the frame. If you are interested in capturing moments to last a lifetime, let’s get in touch today!
