A little bit about me......

I discovered photography at the age of 13 and have not looked back. 
It is my profession, my hobby, my passion and a piece of me that has grown over the past 19 years.

I began photographing architecture, then discovered the enjoyment of photographing the urban music scene.  Throughout my extensive travels, I have taken every opportunity to fulfill my need to capture a moment in time from inanimate objects, landscapes, architecture and portraits of individuals or groups.

I’m a purist when it comes to photography and I still shoot film. I still use the darkroom to process and print, but I am also  shoot digital.  I feel that photography is an amazing art form that is slowly losing out to digital. 
I do recognize that digital images are desired and needed at times. Therefore, I am flexible and am able to produce both.

My style is akin to a photojournalist, I like to document and capture the creation of a moment without having to direct or produce it. 
I prefer capturing images with natural light, but am very comfortable in a lighted studio environment.
Every now and then, I pull out the lights to produce unique interpretations of what I see.

My work is eclectic, and I’m able to adapt to any environment or situation with enjoyment because every snap of the shutter I take,
captures a single moment in time.

Let’s sit down and discuss your needs and desires, as well as show you my portfolio and style.  I do not feel the internet completely represents my work,
however the following pages should give you “a glimpse” into my world and what I can capture.
