About
my name is david ruff, and for all intents and purposes, i am ruffmade.
i am a freelance photographer and graphic artist located in the northwest suburgbs of chicago. i am available for custom work as well as my produced work that is available for purchase on my website.
i started drawing and actively participating in art before i could really read or write. i have spent most of my life creating, in one way or anothet, art. i studied art and architecture at clemson university, but left to explore the lucrative field of manual labor. now after years of searching for my voice, i have found it.
i concentrate mostly on photography and vector artwork. i shoot Nikon cameras and do all types of processing from almost straight out of the camera to very heavy hdr and filtered shots. i am available for private shoots, as well as group shoots. most of my time pursuing my own style in photography is spent finding interesting angles for interesting framing.
