I am an FAA licensed drone operator and expert user of Adobe Creative Suite software. More photos are available for viewing on Instagram and Flickr.

Since 2016, I’ve been part of the marketing team at Bigge Crane and Rigging Co., where I regularly shoot and edit videos and photos, contribute to campaigns, write copy, produce print materials, design logos, edit the company website, record voice-overs, and spin up micro-websites. In short, I’ve been a visual creative resource serving the entire organization.

    I hired Rocky to bring my book, ‘The Long Return’, to life. He designed the layout for my book and put it together in a professional looking conventional style, but with lovely artistic touches throughout. The back cover needed an author’s picture and Rocky shot me in various lighting and from different angles, and directed me until we got the perfect photo. On the night of a reading, Rocky shot stills and videos of me reading and the audience reacting, and sent me edited files of both. I highly recommend Rocky Laber Photography.

    We hired Rocky to photograph a few of our home remodels that we had completed and he did a great job. We wanted different angles and amounts of photos for each of our projects which made our scope of work a little complicated, but he was very easy to work with and very communicative. He listened to what we were looking for and tailored a package for us. Plus, his turnaround for the finished products was quick! I highly recommend working with Rocky for any of your photography or videography needs.

    Rocky was great to work with and would have no hesitation using his services again in the future. He was flexible, reasonably priced, professional, and produced great quality photos.

    From start to finish, Rocky’s professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail truly set him apart. The booking process was seamless, and he took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for. During the shoot, Rocky made me feel completely at ease, which helped capture some of the most natural and relaxed but professional photos I’ve ever had. His ability to bring out the best in his subjects is remarkable. Not only did I receive high-quality images, but the turnaround time was incredibly fast as well.
