Stuart’s sense of light and composition is extraordinarily sensitive! He can work with any subject, from the very small (HO-scale farm animals) to the very large (my ego, the Eiffel Tower)!

Stuart created some amazing portraits of our Medical Executive Committee which captured their spirit, energy and personalities. Not your typical head and shoulder shots.

Hiring Stuart Alden as your project photographer is like having a camera with a built-in art director. His camera-vision is very helpful in creating the perfect shot. He's very good and versatile at shooting digital, traditional film and eight-ball.

Stuart is one of those rare breeds of photographers who not only finds the right perspective and the perfect photo, he also shoots knowing exactly how the image will fit into the designed piece. It’s like he sees the final piece, not just the subject in front of his lens, and then gets the shot. I also enjoy that he’s fast, friendly and easy to work with -- requiring little set up time.

I’ve got nothing to say about Stuart that everyone doesn’t already know. Patient, nimble and thoughtful are a few words (that can be published) that come to mind when his name is mentioned. We’ve had a great time together shooting such diverse subjects as a team of runners at the flatirons in Boulder, volunteers painting and repairing a non-profit facility, world-class scientists, and university instructors. In each case, Stuart has shown poise and enough boyish charm to win over his subjects and get the right shot.

Don't worry. Clients have nice things to say about Nicky too, we just haven't gotten around to updating this section.
