Derek Vento Photography

A New York native, turned southern gentleman, I'm the son of flight attendant and pilot. During my sophomore year of high school I found a niche for public speaking and photography. In the pursuit of various passions I had the opportunity to serve my community throughout several volunteer and career endeavors which ultimately led me to become a Firefighter/EMT. In pursuit of furthering my career, I followed in the footsteps of my parents and currently work as an air traffic controller at one of the world's busiest airports. When I'm not working my crazy 9-5, I love to read, travel, and watch Michigan football!

My vision, your day... A relaxed approach to creatively tell your story. Real moments, real smiles, real emotion. I view your wedding as an opportunity to express the beauty I see in your family, and friends while leaving you with a lifetime of memories. So last but not least, enjoy the champagne, celebrate with your loved ones, and most of all...breathe. I forgot to mention...I love a good dance floor so you might see myself and associates join in for the Cha Cha Slide.
