The Fenix Team
Learn About Your Photographers
Our team of portrait artists is comprised of the top talents in the Charlotte region. Each artist is expertly trained and qualified in our house portrait style, which is inspired by the cinematic close-up and applies the conventions of headshots for actors and models to all professions. However, if you have a different vision, we are more than capable of adjusting to match other styles of portraits or replicating a business’s internal guidelines.
Furthermore, everyone who works at our studio has been where you are — seeking transformative change and striving for something new.
