Your Photographer!

My name is Shawn D. Culmer, also known as "Gates"; owner of  Black Gates Films & Photography . I am a father, teacher, and a creator. I specialise in photography, videography graphics, writing, technology & arts. I am also very seasoned in project management and rooted heavily in customer service. 

Black Gates Films & Photography  has been an integral part of my life from August 10th, 2010 to present. 

The term "Black Gates' came from an admiration study, where I always imagined  that I would have become , "The Black Bill Gates" of  my home town Nassau, Bahamas. I have sat in many rooms creating projects where I have learnt and have been taught.  Traveling the world, capturing love and beauty, while ensuring that my craft is razor sharp; has become apart of my everyday life.
