About The Photographer

I began my journey with photography as a kid, armed with small film cameras, (having grown up in the age of film) and a desire to explore. Exploring via photography eventually became a fascination as well as a tool for me to see the world around me and share it with others. Lucky to have a great father who gave me awesome experiences and learning opportunities and who nurtured my budding enthusiasm by sending me to photography classes and letting me explore the great museums as well as the great wild, I was able to expand my tastes and learn where my eye gravitated. Photography to me is more than just capturing a moment, it should - at its very best - evoke emotion. Your face should not be able to contain the smile or grimace an image might pull forth. The perfect landscape should teleport your heart and soul to the place you see, the ideal floral image should let your nose tickle at the smell of the flower before you and an image of a wild animal should make you feel its presence. I currently am a Nikon Professional Services member, use a variety of Nikon digital cameras, Nikon lenses and Lee Filters. I love to talk about these images and hope you will enjoy them if you purchase them or even just look at them from time to time. I look forward to hearing from you.
