About Me

IG @Artful_Exposure

I'm a music producer that takes pictures. I've never really thought of myself as a "photographer". Photography...being creative is therapy for me. Finance is the day gig and I'm creative, when time permits, as a release. I appreciate and respect any thoughtful genre of art, but love classy, respectful and edgy emotive images involving the human form. IMHO, pretty is a dime a a dozen. Beautiful is a lot more rare and a lot less external.

I'm passionate about doing great work, but not pressuring for specific visual outcomes. I believe in having concepts, but not being so rigid as to not allow the universe to use us as conduits for something special. Collaboration is my preference. In my opinion, we should all be muses for one another and you should expect to be happy with not only the outcome, but also the process. HOWEVER, please don't contact me for any concepts that depict violence...not my thing.

Thanks for checking out my fun.
Be careful out there...
Take care :)

"Absolute professional. I felt very safe with him, and we had a great time collaborating. I loved that he would let me see the photos we'd gotten and worked with me on what I thought I would improve." Read less

"Tommy is amazing. He not only was very professional, he was incredibly inspiring. We did a shoot of me painting. I was still skeptical of calling myself an artist because I was so self conscious of my work. Tommy gave me the confidence and comfort to trust in my talent and allow myself to identify as an artist. Also, the pictures from the shoot were smashing!" Read less

I haven't worked with many photographers in the Denver area because once I found Tommy I didn't need to. He is an extremely talented, professional photographer and anyone would be lucky to work with him. I am always blown away by the creative, unique photos he produces and how much fun we have working together. He is a great guy all around and I would recommend his services to anyone.

It has been fantastic working with Tommy. He is a very creative patient and enthusiastic photographer. I felt very comfortable working with him and am excited to continue using his services in the future.

I'm the first to admit that I'm very self conscious; however, Tommy's personality helped to make me feel extremely comfortable in front of the camera. The experience was very organic and fun and I ended up getting the best pictures of me in my life ... much more than I had even expected! His professionalism is paramount and I trust him and his vision implicitly. He is blessed with a vision that can capture the raw beauty of whatever image he captures. He is a true artist with the utmost professional integrity.

Tommy was a great photographer to work with. We met beforehand to not only go over the concept, but to talk about my strengths and went through my portfolio and he pointed out pictures of mine that he liked the most. Tommy helped me work out my look, both outfits and expression, and was respectful and fun the whole time. I would definitely work with him again.

Although I've done modeling and promotions for years, Tommy is responsible for me respecting and finally viewing photography as an actual art form. I used to think the photographer had the easiest job on a shoot, the camera does it all... Right?? Wrong!!

The first time I met with Tommy, was the first time I sat in awe of a photograph. He showed me some of his work, and then he explained what he was thinking about shooting with me. That was the first time I'd ever been so excited about the actual photo shoot.

Professionally, and confidently handled every shoot I've done with him. Not only have loved the photos from every shoot I've done with Tommy, I've also always had such a great, comfortable time. I look forward to my next opportunity to shoot with him.

I'm a HUGE fan of Tommy's work. He has an eye for the extraordinary, for capturing moments people miss when they blink, for documenting emotion through his lens. He's creative and thorough and meticulous with every click of his shutter. I'm happy to refer him for corporate, intimate, artistic, landscape, family, children, events...most everything you put in front of his camera!

Tommy is an amazingly talented photographer and a genuinely awesome human being! Working with him has always been a very enjoyable and effortless experience. He has a way of putting people at ease and an ability to capture the most beautiful images. I would highly recommend Mr. McMillion!

Through his amazing body of work he tells very unique and moving stories captured with his camera lens. Each project is ultimately a beautiful work of art ...individual and soulful. I would recommend him highly for any work requiring the utmost in professionalism, creativity and quality. The end result will far exceed your expectations.

Tommy is passionate about his work and will only let high caliber, top quality product flow through his capable hands. He's creative, inventive and definitely an out if the box thinker. Always on time, you couldn't find someone better to deliver top notch product within budget and deadline.

Absolutely incredible working with Tommy. He put me right at ease, and it's been a few years since that shoot -- and I still use one of the photos in my portfolio! Great guy. I hope to work with him again soon. Nothing but professional and VERY talented!
