About HuthPhoto, LLC

Who’s HuthPhoto & why should I care?

Ken & Colin Huth (plus our team of awesome local photographers!) do PR, drone stills & video, publications, and more.

Our hearts are with organizations making a difference in the world.

We’re Bull City Proud, based in Durham, NC.

And, you know… we love a good theatre show, as well as the challenge of coming up with creative ideas for cover stories/PR campaigns, and flying high getting cool drone views of the Triangle.

Our promise:

— Great Photos | No Stress —

You have no idea how much of a relief it was to work with you.

I didn’t worry about the photos at all (and how great they turned out is the proof of the whole thing!!!)

I knew our photography was in good hands, and could focus on my event!

Director of Alumni Relations | Duke University School of Nursing, (see our Duke Reunion photos HERE)

Ken Huth is an amazing photographer.

Not only is he extremely talented, but he works quickly, offers reasonable rates, and is a photographer that truly “gets” the Y.

In addition to all that, he happens to be a really great guy who is extremely easy to work with.

Director of Regional Collaborations, YMCA of the USA (see our YMCA photos HERE)

How we’re different:

We love to create much more than the few images you expect, but something you didn’t even know you needed, like our photo stories show. We’re always up to something new, like our FAA certified Drone service.

Want to do a creative shoot?

We have tons of experience with top national brands, so we can brainstorm some really awesome coverage for you, as well as creating unique, social and interactive uses for your photos.

Hate getting caught without a photographer?

With Ken, Colin, and access to our PhotoTeam, you will always have someone great to cover your project, with a range of specialities and price levels.

What we’re known for:

Universities | Drone Views | Med/Tech | Theatre

Colleges like Duke & Carolina have us cover lead stories in medical and donor publications for Duke School of Nursing, Duke’s Surgery Department, as well as BOTH Duke & UNC Law.

We also LOVE theatre photography. Ken had over 23 seasons at the largest NY regional theatre outside of NYC, Geva Theatre Center before moving south. Ken & Colin both now have over 5 years with PlayMakers Rep in Chapel Hill, NC.

We’re the house photographers (doing the key PR images, cast parties like for Hamilton, and Broadway touring shows like School of Rock) for one of the top 5 largest theater in the country, the Durham Performing Arts Center (DPAC).

These are all SO great! Exactly what we were looking for, once again. We‘re excited to get started using them.

I really appreciate you guys and all you did— it has been great to work with you both these past couple years. I’ll most definitely reach out for another show next year!

Our staff and board really enjoyed working with you —

I received several calls immediately after from the team saying how much they love you & Colin. 🙂

Thanks for the extra social media image ideas too…The staff loves them.

Can’t wait to see the final video — SO excited!

Why should you care?

We hear from so many clients that photo shoots & dealing with photographers is just plain stressful. They want to work with someone fun, comfortable…and that they can trust to just show up and nail the job.

We’re told that working with us is very different, and I guess the proof is that the majority of our clients have been loyally with us for over ten years— we’ve even had multiple clients with us for over 20 years!

Sweet story…

Sweet story… When we announce we were moving south, Geva theatre actually named a photo gallery in honor of our 23 seasons with them.

They filled it with enlargements of our best theatre work — We totally miss them!

Those are the kind of relationships we want to have with our clients.

The work we do together is truly fun… and meaningful.

TOGETHER, we’re making a difference every day — by making everyone at a Y camp feel special, or by telling the world about the amazing things your organization is up to…

We look forward to being a part of your story.

Please contact us & let's chat about what cool stuff we can create together.
