Hey, it's Meech
​​​
I have worked in the creative worlds of radio, television, and the performing arts for over 30 years. I grew up on film cameras and the earliest of digital cameras.
I took to the Musical Theatre stage at age 9, became a techie climbing the lighting grids at age 13. From Community Theatre to being a member of Actors Equity and in nearly every capacity; actor, singer, director, producer, technical director to scenic and lighting designer. I love the Performing Arts.
​
My professional career in radio began at age 18, and my career in television in 1998. I am currently in my 18th year with WarnerBros. Discovery (formerly Turner Broadcasting) in Washington, DC.
​
I've seen countless numbers of actors headshots. Trust me when I say I have seen "I've seen them all" and I know what works and what doesn't. An actor headshot isn't a portrait, it isn't a glamour or modeling shot. It is a professionally taken photograph that should represent you, as you are right now in front of a casting team on your best average day. It represents you, in the now...not what you can be or have been.​
Meech Creative, LLC was born from a lifelong love of the arts and is comprised of three entities providing professional photography, videography and production & consulting services.
​
I focus on headshots for actors & professionals. I also shoot theatrical productions, creative portraits, dancers, and event coverage.
Recently I've added a specialty pet portrait service called Pawsome Portraits!
​
I am also an FAA Part-107 Certified drone pilot specializing in cinematic video & imagery for ad agency, and commercial production in the Western Maryland and Washington, DC region with the aerial wing of Meech Creative, Shots Over Frederick. If you're a real estate agent, I shoot residential and commercial properties.
​
I do not shoot weddings, or infants. There are other photographers locally who specialize in that, and I love & respect their work greatly.
​​​
Let's get together and collaborate.
