Nice to Meet You!
I’m John
Your Photographer at Watkins Photography
From Law Enforcement to Photos and Video
My previous career was in law enforcement, where I dedicated over three years to serving and protecting. It was a period filled with intense experiences and relentless 16-hour shifts. As much as I valued this chapter, the constant exposure to trauma took its toll, and I knew I needed a change. So, I took a bold leap and opened Watkins Photography.
Initially, photography was my sole focus. But about a year in, I realized the rising tide of video content's popularity. That’s when I added video services to my portfolio, meeting the evolving needs of my clients. Networking events were a game-changer for me. There, I met numerous professionals who understood the power of social media but were overwhelmed by the thought of creating consistent, engaging content. Their struggle struck a chord with me, and I saw my opportunity to make a difference.
That's when Watkins Photography transformed. We pivoted to become a content creation powerhouse, dedicated to crafting compelling photo and video content for social media. We make it simple for businesses and professionals to maintain an active, vibrant presence online without the stress of doing it all themselves. So, if you're looking to elevate your social media game or refresh your professional image with stunning visuals, you know who to call – we're here to turn that daunting task into a seamless, enjoyable experience!
Watkins Photography is on an exciting trajectory! We've been incredibly fortunate to collaborate with fantastic new clients, both in the corporate world and among small businesses. These partnerships have underscored our mission to provide top-notch social media content. As we continue to grow and enrich our portfolio, our goal remains steadfast: to expand our client base and keep delivering exceptional services.
With this expansion in mind, we're in the process of enhancing our team. We're on the lookout for talented photo and lighting assistants, skilled video editors, and even additional photographers to join our dynamic crew. That's why I love connecting with other creatives. Every conversation is an opportunity to meet someone who can bring something unique and valuable to the table.
But that's not all. While we're passionate about creating social media content, we haven't forgotten our roots in more traditional photography services. We continue to cater to large corporate events, parties, and awards galas, providing the same level of professionalism and quality that Watkins Photography is known for. Our services also include headshots, which we can do either at our Mukilteo studio or on-site at clients' offices with our mobile studio.
The journey ahead is thrilling, and I can't wait to see where it takes us. At Watkins Photography, we're more than just a business; we're a growing family of creatives committed to capturing life's moments and elevating your brand's presence. Here's to the future – full of potential, growth, and stunning visuals!
