Deacon Will Johnson: The Guy Behind The Lens
Welcome – I’m Deacon Will Johnson, but you can call me Will (or Deacon). My journey began in 1997 when I began recording my daughter’s basketball games. And so the story goes, that simple fling rapidly pedaled into a thriving career. I’ve been grateful ever since. In 2017, I opened my 750-SF studio. Since that greatly excelled, I decided to open my second brand with my associate, Mutui Gbadegesin: Double-Exposure.
Behind the scenes, you can catch me at my hometown church performing as their media director. In my spare time, I have the immense privilege of volunteering to educate school-age youth about public speaking and video editing techniques. Back in 2015, I was honored by the city of Saint Petersburg and USF-SP with a job teaching students videography and photography skills over a span of eight weeks.
All Photos Considered Photography welcomes people from all phases of life. Our work has been featured in the Power Broker Magazine, where I personally worked as the lead photographer. From weddings, engagements, high school seniors, events, and beyond, we create images to be proud of. We are different – and we like that.
I look forward to creating great things with you. The possibilities are endless. Now, let’s get to work!
stories we loved photographing. As we have always said, images are timeless. We don’t look at these as just ‘photoshoots’, but rather as exciting life experiences. The best part about our job? The everlasting connections we make with clients. Enjoy a few moments and view our collection.
Our Galleries
Aerial Drone
It’s time to go above and beyond. The options of dynamic photography and videography with the use of a drone are endless. Examine, inspect, and collect data with the help of aerial footage. From construction projects to documenting special events, we provide angles that can only be achieved from above. Whether you want to make a film, impress a client, or sell a house, we create masterpieces to fit your needs.
Engagements
Have your story lovingly told. One of our favorite parts about engagement photography is crossing paths with remarkable people and getting to know them. We focus on connections and documenting this pivotal milestone while creating images you can look back on for years to come. Our authentic and creative approach allows you to relax and savor your time during your engagement session. The ultimate goal is to have images that reflect you as a couple and your personalities. Are you ready to say yes again?
Head Shots
Are you an entrepreneur, homemaker, big-wig CEO? Maybe you define yourself as a rolling stone. No matter what you call yourself, there are still great benefits from having superb headshots taken. It’s the first big impression someone has on you. It’s the face to a name, your social media account, your email signature, and all other significant platforms. It’s you in your best form. Don’t settle for fake smiles. Schedule a different headshot experience – one with powerful results.
Events
If you are hosting a corporate event, convention, trade show, auction, fundraiser, or any other relevant gathering, have peace of mind knowing we have your back. With our photography and videography services, we cover all grounds to make sure we capture the entire event. Events require lots of planning, preparation, and work. With so many details that go into a successful occasion, it’s essential to preserve those memories with high-quality video and photography.
School Sr
It’s finally here. Senior Year. You’ve been studying relentlessly, daydreaming of your diploma, and preparing to step into adulthood. With that being said, you’ve also probably wondered about what yearbook photo you will choose or if you might even mail out senior announcements. You’re in luck. With senior portraits, you will have the chance to capture this impactful moment in your life. It’s a great way to commemorate your hard work and celebrate this achievement. Be uniquely you.
Real Estate
Ready to elevate your listing? Look no further. Our superior real estate photography shows your listing in its best form. In this day and age, technology has made massive leaps. Now, you can showcase any property without physically being there, thanks to our attention-grabbing video production services. Let’s take interior and exterior shots of your listing and create a video walk-through on your place. Come sundown, we will capture stellar twilight images of your property’s exterior features. Your potential buyers will feel right at home once they see these. With our state-of-the-art drone services, we rise above the rest and capture still images and video to showcase the entire area. Don’t let your listing go unnoticed – a beautiful presentation of your listing will seal the deal.
Portraits
The amazing part about portrait photography is the fact that it can be of any phase of life. Whether you’re welcoming a little one into your family, celebrating a milestone, or simply needing to refresh outdated images, you’ve come to the right place. That’s what we love about photography – you don’t even need a reason. Images are important to you. This is why we tailor every session to your needs and vision. We create timeless, authentic images that will make your heart sing for decades to come.
Weddings
For the laid back, relaxed couple who need a simple elopement. For the go-getters who want to dance all night long. We are here for it all. Your big day should be seamless. You can think of us as a fly on the wall. You do you, and we will make sure all the special details are thoughtfully captured. After the cake is eaten, vows are promised, and the last speech has been given, one thing remains – visual documentation (of photos and videos) of your wedding day.

I hired All Photos Considered to photograph my wedding and it was the best decision I ever made! Will and his team were an absolutely pleasure to work with. They were so friendly, professional & personable to me and my guests and you can tell that these guys really love what they do and they are ARTISTS! They even got my 4 year old nephew to focus and smile and that is no easy task! Will and his team really stayed true to the candid & artsy style I asked for which was so important to me! I personally hate having my picture taken because I feel like I’m not very photogenic but Will made me feel so calm and comfortable and it really shines through in the photos. I was blown away when I saw the beautiful images that they captured of me and my husband. All my bridesmaids look gorgeous and have all said how me and my husbands photos look like they belong in a high end wedding magazine! You can’t get better feedback then that! My photos are so beautiful, fun & you can see the love captured in each photo. They have amazing attention to detail & really worked to obtain the perfect lightning which really made each photo so colorful, sharp & lively! Most of the photos have brought tears to my eyes (tears of Joy ladies!) I’m so pleased with my decision to hire them! I have some gorgeous memories to look back on now. I’ll definitely be reaching out again for some baby shower photos in the future! If you want a photographer who listens, is a true artist & a professional, while also making you feel comfortable & confident then look no further! Thank you Will & your amazing team for your work! You guys nailed it!

When I hired All Photos Considered, I had no idea what I wanted or needed for my vlog for my new website. Will used his out of the box creative thinking to design and stage some fantasic video footage, and I was super impressed and very pleased with the results. Will has also completed several head shots and captured footage from many of our graduations for our business entrepreneurial CATCH. I would highly recommend All Photos Considered for any of your upcoming photo or video needs.

I had a great experience recently with this company for a Head-shot. THEY WERE ABLE TO DELIVER! I love my picture and even love my photo shop edits. I didn’t have a make up artist available that day but they really enhanced my photo in a natural way. Thank you for all you did to make my photo shoot great.
