A Long Track Record of Creative Production
In my career I’ve worked as a designer/illustrator/animator for web, email, various electronic media, and print. More recently, I was a member of the marketing team at Bigge Crane and Rigging Co., where I regularly shot and edited videos and photos, contributed to campaigns, wrote copy, produced print materials, designed logos, edited the company website, recorded voice-overs, and spun up micro-websites. In short, 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.
Rocky provided great photography and video service for us, and created a wonderful testimonial video as well! Professional services, quick turnaround, excellent product!
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.
I’ve been shooting with Canon gear for many years, I’ve been very happy with a number of aspects of this brand: the quality, durability, and reliability have allowed me to explore subjects incorporating an approach that enables creativity, knowing that my equipment is performing predictably and delivering the high quality results I rely on for client work and satisfying my own artistic expression.
I’ve had significant experience with DJI products, specifically drones, action cameras and gimbals. I’ve also been an active GoPro user going back to the mid 2000s.
