Willson Cummer > Photojournalism:

My images appear in national and local publications.  I also work on my own documentary projects.

I like discovering and telling stories, whether it's with pictures, text, or both.

 I spent five years as a reporter for the Los Angeles Times and the Plain Dealer, of Cleveland. I enjoy working on deadline and understand the importance of fairness and accurate captions.

Willson Cummer > I photograph weddings and events for colleges, companies and individual clients.  I also make portraits on commission and take on sports and photojournalism assignments.
