About Seth and Epiglotic Photographic

self with uke


I'm Seth Thompson, owner of Epiglotic Photographic. I am a Grand Rapids, MI-based photographer specializing in portraiture and editorial photography. My ultimate goal on every project: to create images you can FEEL.

I don't subscribe to the notion that "artist" and "photographer" imply different pursuits. I'm an "artist" that works primarily in "photography". Oh, and also a "musician" with albums on iTunes. Search for Seth or the album Capillarious...

Click the Portfolio link above to view samples of my work. Or come over to my Facebook page, take a look and become a fan while you're there.

Interested in working together? Email me at: seth [at] epiglotic dot com

I'm based in Grand Rapids, but will travel anywhere for the right project.


What some clients have said:

"Seth was the photographer I wanted from the get-go and he didn't disappoint.  His input before the the shoot was crucial and his photographs are straight from my dreams!  His easy going manner made it a pleasure for everyone - on all levels.  Highly recommended!"

"Seth Thompson is a phenomenal photographer. One of the things I appreciated about him most is his willingness to (without me having to ask) search around the city for appropriate locations. He probably looked for a couple of weeks to find just the right spot for our shoot. The pictures came out PERFECT. Seth is timely, professional, and most importantly, he thinks outside of the norm to get the best shots. He comes highly recommended."

Taking a break from trying to learn ActionScript 3 and updating my website, I found this series commenting on the ubiquity of Google. Pretty funny.
