Full time professional photographic artist David A. Gilmour LPPO founded his studio, Lumacraft Photography, in 2004.  Lumacraft Photography has developed a client base situated mainly in Burlington, Oakville, Hamilton, Milton and the Toronto Golden Horseshoe region.  The studio serves both private and commercial clients, and specializes in portrait, wedding, glamour and fine art photography.

David is nationally accredited in portraiture by The Professional Photographers of Canada.  The creation of artistic, distinctive high quality portraits is a speciality of Lumacraft Photography.  Whether you require a business portrait, a family portrait, a glamour portrait or a bridal portrait, David A. Gilmour LPPO treats every portrait commission as an opportunity to apply his experience, creative vision and technical expertise to produce a distinctive high quality portrait.

With a background in traditional drawing and painting, David brings an artist’s eye and hand to his camerawork and image finishing.  David’s passion for his favourite subject, women, is apparent whether he is rendering with charcoal, paint or his camera.  David believes that it is the combination of his broader experience in the graphic arts, and his love for making beautiful images of women, which distinguishes him from other local photographers and is the key to his success as a wedding photographer.  Brides in particular appreciate David’s passion for capturing feminine beauty, and how his experience with glamour, fashion and model photography shapes and elevates his bridal photography.

Bridal couples also love David’s ability to capture both the style and the story of their wedding day, and how he is able to artistically convey those captured moments in their bridal album.  Lumacraft Photography’s signature premium bridal album is a hallmark of its wedding photography business.  Each album contains a series of hand designed artistic photographic collages presented in a highest quality Italian handmade book, featuring thick board pages and gutterless binding, with a cover made of padded leather or other fine materials.

Prior to embarking on his second career as a professional photographer, David A. Gilmour LPPO enjoyed a successful 22 year career in the microelectronics industry. His industrial experience included production, engineering, marketing and management responsibilities.  Lumacraft Photography’s commercial commissions give him the opportunity to draw on all of his business experiences and insights, to help his clients to meet their goals. Having established strong physical resources, including its fully equipped private 1000 square foot studio, and a network of experienced local specialists, Lumacraft Photography is able to handle commercial jobs of up to moderate complexity.  Whether you require executive portraits, photography for your annual report, catalogue content, or creative images for advertising, Lumacraft Photography is well positioned to help.
