My over 40 years as a professional photographer was born from a lifelong love of all types of images. From a young age, I would go through newspapers, periodicals, and LIFE magazine to gaze at the beautiful pictures. As I grew older, I continued to observe imagery, visiting museums and studying art and graphic design.

​

Whether I am photographing families in their element, taking headshots for a corporate client, or capturing the exquisiteness in nature – when I am taking pictures, I am using my camera to draw with light and creating art that is useful, even when the sole purpose is simply to express beauty.

​

Being a photographer brings me so much joy and allows me opportunities to meet so many unique people and visit new places. I believe all pictures come from within and that great photography is almost entirely dependent on clear communication. In order for any shoot to be successful, I must be in tune with my subjects, my clients, and my surroundings at all times.

​

Knowing that my work is the highest possible quality and that my clients are happy is of the utmost importance to me.
