GEN. JUSTIN
JUSTIN WRIGHT

Justin grew up in St. Louis, MO, and lived there until his family moved to South Africa before his freshman year of high school.  Traveling all over the world provided a great reason to get into photography.  Photography was just a hobby until he was asked to do press photography for a Peter Frampton event at the Musician's Hall of Fame.  When the event ended and he was handed an unexpected check, he finally realized he could get paid to do something he loved.  Justin is self-taught, learning what he knows from the wonderful world wide web and experience.  He loves photographing and working with people, which is why he chose to specialize in wedding photography. 

Hard Facts:

- Justin had to repeat Kindergarten because he couldn't color in the lines.  Now he gets rewarded for thinking outside the box.

- In second grade he almost lost his bottom lip to a shih tzu after taunting it with Doritos.  He has the scars to prove it.

- Justin's mom took him to get his first tattoo at the age of 17.

- Justin's name was often called over the intercom at Walmart and shopping malls because he would unknowingly wander away from his family.

- Justin was Prom King which is a pretty amazing feat considering he had 30 people in his graduating class.

- Justin has a slight addiction to candy and married a Registered Dietician to help him with his problem.

- Graduated from Lipscomb University with a degree in "Undecided." aka Oral Communication
