About the Author
Bob Davis
isn’t a newcomer to the photography industry. In fact,
he’s been a professional photographer for over 25 years. Bob has
always been intrigued by photography and felt from an early age
that being a photographer was what he wanted to do with his life.
Bob’s passion for photography began back in high school when
he became the editor of the school newspaper. As he proceeded
on to Columbia College, he was honored with the title of College
Photographer of the Year. With this honor came a full time job at a
daily newspaper in Chicago. This experience launched Bob on to
a career at the
Chicago Sun-Times
newspaper for 14 years.
Bob states, “My cameras have always been like a passport allowing
me a front seat to history.” He feels continually honored when doors
open and people invite him in to document their life. While at the
paper, he covered countless amazing events, such as presidential
elections, Michael Jordan’s entire career with the Chicago Bulls,
many faiths celebrations and rituals. He’s traveled around the
world to places such as El Salvador, Taiwan, Lithuania, Romania,
Moldova, Kenya, Italy, Tanzania for human interest stories.
Bob has since moved on from the newspaper industry. Today, he has the privilege of
photographing the most important events in his client’s lives and he couldn’t be happier
to have this honor. Additionally, he has the pleasure of traveling the world photographing
weddings. Bob feels fortunate to have photographed the weddings of Eva Longoria and
Tony Parker, Eddie Murphy and Tracey Edmonds, and many others. He also photographs
events for Oprah Winfrey.
Bob is a member of Canon’s Explorers of Light, a recognized Pro by Westcott and a part of
Apple’s Aperture Advisory Board.
Photography... It’s what he’s passionate about.
