About Me
Just a Young Creative Who Loves Fries, Brews, and his Dad-Bod...
Actually, I've lost my dad bod (thank you mountain hikes and a new found love for road biking) but I am indeed still a 20-something guy traveling through life and doing it all with a camera in hand!
​
Also, before I share more about myself, yes my real name is Negley. I'm named after my great grandfather!
​
I grew up in a rural farm town located about an hour west of Toledo, Ohio. There wasn't a lot to do here besides go to Walmart for fun, or drive down bumpy back roads with your lights off, so I picked up a camera in a high school classroom and still have not put it down.
​
For the last decade I've been primarily photographing friends, families, and weddings. While I've loved it, I just didn't feel like those photography niches served me in this new season of life living in Salt Lake City, UT.
​
I'm passionate about sharing with the world all that I get to explore, and I also have really grown fascinated by the art of photographing fun atmosphere's like those of breweries, bars, restaurants, and more in the realm of food and beverage!
​
Within the last 3 years I've managed to transition my work towards food and beverage photography. I have clients I serve once to help them obtain a stellar photo portfolio for use such as promotional materials. I also have many clients I work with very closely for more consistent work and growth on both our ends!
​
I love a crispy chicken tender basket, a solid crafted brew (especially if it's a pilsner) and getting to travel all over the world to help businesses enhance their online and overall appearance. I am excited to share all that I have been working on and hope you are excited to follow along on my journey too!
​
When I'm not working, I'm typically enjoying all utah has to offer - hiking, skiing, and diving into new adventures! I'm a creative at heart, so I am always taking up new hobbies too, like ceramics, crochet, or learning a new trade!
​
I'm stoked you're here, and if you're a professional seeking services, I'm happy to chat! If you're just coming by to learn about the top places in Utah to grab a bite, also happy to have you.
​
Hope you find what you're looking for here in my corner online.
​
See you soon!​
