BEGINNINGS Are HUMBLE
Dean French always had a passion for music and photography, doing something that involved both was an absolute no brainer! French prides himself in being punctual, precise and producing the best content he possibly can so you know you are getting a great service!
French hasn't had any training in either photography or musical production, but it was his passion that made him hungry for knowledge and ways to excel!
The name TNR Protography came from combining Production and Photography, and The Names Rock was the alias that Dean used to release his own music under, thats why TNR. These days French releases his music under his name.

What gear do I use?
Cameras:
Nikon Z6 III - The Z6III is my go-to camera for just about everything. It captures crisp, vibrant photos with beautiful detail, even in tricky lighting, and it really shines when it comes to video. I can shoot high-quality 12-bit RAW video right in-camera, which gives me tons of flexibility to get that cinematic look in your final edit. Whether I'm snapping candid moments or filming your big day, the Z6III helps me deliver sharp, professional results every time.

Nikon Z6 - The Z6 is a solid workhorse and is my backup camera. It captures stunning photos with great color, sharpness, and detail—perfect for all kinds of lighting situations. Whether I’m shooting portraits, action, or low-light moments, the Z6 consistently delivers beautiful results. It’s always in my bag, ready to step in and perform when needed.

Lenses:
Nikon 17-28mm F2.8 - The Nikon lens is my go-to lens when I need wide, sharp, and clean shots. It’s perfect for real estate, capturing entire rooms with beautiful clarity, but it’s just as great for creative portraits and events where I want to include more of the scene. The constant f/2.8 aperture keeps things bright and crisp, even in low light, and the images it produces are always sharp and vibrant. It’s lightweight, fast, and super reliable—definitely a staple in my kit.

Nikon 70-180mm F2.8 - The Nikon lens is my reach-for-it lens when I want to get in close without physically moving. It’s perfect for capturing candid moments at events, intimate portraits with dreamy background blur, or even details from a distance. The f/2.8 aperture gives me beautiful depth and low-light flexibility, and despite the zoom range, it’s surprisingly lightweight. It’s a super versatile lens that delivers sharp, punchy images every time.

Tamron 150-500mm F5-6.7 - This Tamron lens is my go-to lens when I need serious reach. It’s perfect for shooting wildlife, sports, or any fast-paced action from a distance without missing the moment. Even all the way out at 500mm, it delivers sharp, detailed images with great color and contrast. It handles beautifully for such a long lens—compact enough to carry around and fast enough to keep up with the action. Whether I’m tracking a bird in flight or freezing a goal on the field, this lens gets the job done.
Drone:
DJI Air 3s - The DJI Air 3s is my drone of choice when I want to capture stunning aerial shots with style and precision. It features a dual-camera system—one wide-angle and one 3x telephoto—giving me tons of creative flexibility from the sky. It shoots gorgeous 4K video at up to 120fps, perfect for smooth, cinematic footage or crisp slow motion. On the photo side, it delivers sharp, vibrant images that really bring landscapes, events, and properties to life. Whether it’s sweeping views or tight aerial details, the Air 3s helps me capture it all with ease.
