Calvin Hayes’ calm demeanor and quiet presence are a humble front for a talented, artistic and polished professional with an international reputation. He knew photography was his ‘calling’ when he first picked up a camera at age 12. Throughout his whole career, Calvin has shared his gifts by mentoring other young creatives, and continually working to elevate the integrity of the photo industry in every way. 

Calvin’s resume includes: an exhibition at the George Eastman House in Rochester, being featured in The Wall Street Journal, and being a sought after speaker and instructor for Kodak, Hasselblad and numerous photography guild conventions nationwide. He is appreciated by his clients for being consistent and thorough. Equally comfortable with celebrities and novices, Calvin’s easy manner and practiced eye for composition always bring out the best in his subjects, whether the job is an editorial magazine spread, a multi-cultural wedding, a CEO’s branding headshot or a young actor’s first photo session.

Calvin’s residence and studio are in his home city of Baltimore, but he travels nationally and internationally for any project.  His signature specialties are Corporate, Editorial, Weddings & Events, Food and Portraits.
