Spotlight Photographer of the Week
Week 5: South Carolina
My name is: Gene Ho
Right now I’m sitting at: Command Central. A place where great things happen, LOL. It’s actually a small corner of my kitchen where I dream up great things on my laptop as Carolina Blue Crabs are steaming up for dinner.
My family includes: My amazing partner Nadean. Our children Barry and Ella. My Cockatoo OLI and the Weiner Dog “gangstas” - ISO and BLU.
What inspires me is: My Mom and Dad.
The photographer who most inspires me would be: The photographers on my staff. It’s amazing how good they are.
When hanging out online you will usually find me: Hitting the refresh button to see if anyone has responded to my C2K posts.
The first thing I crave in the morning is: Starbucks. Or any “like form” of caffiene like Red Bull.
Don’t tell anyone that I love: 80’s Hair Band Metal. Poison. Motley Crue. The bigger the hair - the better the music. LOL.
To me “beautiful” is: That $300 retainer check to book that wedding. How sweet is that?
This year’s purchases MUST include: That swimming pool for my back yard.
My guilty pleasure is: Fine and Fresh Atlantic Seafood. Oysters, Lobster, Blue Crabs and Shrimp.
If I had $500 to spend on myself today, I would buy: I’m notoriously cheap. It’s going to end up in a mutual fund, LOL.
I think my best feature: Is probably also my worst. Being a straight shooter. Pretty much, you know where I’m coming from.
I am addicted to: Coffee.
One personal goal I have this year would be: Keep taking great pictures for each client, so that I’ll have a job next year this time.
