The perfect portrait doesn’t stop at the shoot. Post production is essential for all shoots, to make sure that each photo is flawless. Each shoot includes wrinkle reduction, bloodshot eye fixing, teeth whitening, color balancing, crop optimization, vignette effects, advanced contouring and shine/glare removal. If a flaw can be found, it can be fixed.

From script writing to color correction, Ted specializes in designing and executing branded storytelling for TV, Film, Web and Mobile. With 20+ years of experience Ted is a writer, director, steadicam operator, drone pilot and digital surgeon in the edit bay.

Life through the lens

With 20+ years experience in media production, Ted is a director, producer, cinematographer, photographer and editor who tells authentic stories that heighten human connection while pushing the limits of creative cinema.
Ted has experience working as a TV and film producer (FOX, NBC & HBO), art director of motion graphic animations, writer and director of branded commercials, consultant for startup brand marketing and UX UI designer for a variety of websites and apps. As an Executive Producer, Ted has a network of trusted talent that he works with to tell beautiful stories.

Ted is proud to serve clients all over the world, from large corporations to grassroots non-profits. His clients include Salesforce.com, Toyota, Verizon, Google, Interscope, Coachella, Advance.org, Harvard University, Kaiser Permanente, and many more startups and local brands.
Besides running the Tedshots brand, Ted is Founder and Executive Producer of Infinit Studios, a creative media agency.
Growing up Behind a Camera
In every media-related class from middle school through college he was the teachers pet, winning awards for his work, and broadcasting his videos on local television.
After college Teddy moved to LA where he worked for two-time Emmy award winning actor Jeremy Piven (Ari Gold on Entourage), then as the executive assistant to Emmy award winning director and producer Greg Yaitanes on House MD (the #1 drama on TV at the time), where he designed and launched one of the first iPhone apps for a major television drama.
Teddy then left corporate television in 2010 and founded Tedshots Productions to serve LA with quality headshots while also focusing on “shots” such as shooting short films and commercials.
Ted's Life Mission
Enough are the days where humans are brainwashed with scare tactics and propaganda in the media. Teddy’s mission is to show the world that we are all equal and infinitely powerful.
Teddy’s various brands and startups focus on education, collaboration and inspiration towards a more trusting, transparent and truthful “us.” He believes that if we can all be on the same page, then we can write the utopian script of our destiny. This is why a portion of his income is donated to others via Project Dreambox, an organization Teddy founded to help people reach their life goals.

The Headshot Masterclass
Ten years ago, on my last week of unemployment, I had to do something, so I grabbed my camera and went to work. On my journey I figured out how to become one of the top-rated headshot photographers in Los Angeles and today I make thousands of dollars doing what I love by helping people look perfect on camera.
Now I want to teach you how to make a six figure income by creating your own headshot company.
I’ve designed a 15-chapter masterclass video series. These lessons cover everything you need to know to run a headshot photography company from start to finish. This includes how to book clients, facial expressions, body positions, wardrobe, makeup, camera settings, lighting, touchups, contracts, licenses, and beyond.
