Collaborating with Roland has been nothing short of efficient. His keen understanding of the ideal angles, perfect lighting, and suitable backgrounds effortlessly elevates your pictures. I’ve partnered on campaigns with prominent names like Bayshore Mall, Poly Sleep, and Roland; the process is swift. He quickly captures the perfect shot. His enjoyable work demeanour makes the collaboration seamless and pleasant. Mary C Wardrobe Consultant, TV Personality
