My fascination with photography started at an early age. Actually it was the camera that fascinated me and the image capture part naturally followed. One of the very first cameras I had the pleasure of owning was a little spy/novelty camera. The kind of camera you would win at a local fair as a consolation prize or one you would get from the more pricey ($.25) gumball machines.
It just amazed me that you could actually put film in one of those cameras and produce a real image. From that point on, things just got better. My freshman year of high school I joined the photo club and after saving my pennies, purchased my first SLR camera. A Pentax K1000. I was in heaven. I learned photography the old school way. I took the images, developed the film and made the prints in the dark room. The coolest part was placing a print in the developer and watching the image emerge. Magic!
I photographed anything and everything. It wasn't until the mid 1990's that my fascination turned to photographing people. I photographed my first wedding professionally in 1996. After that I was off and running.....
Since that time I have had the honor of capturing over 300 weddings, various events and countless portraits. I have the best job in the world. Every time I put my camera to my eye, I get to create something new for my clients. How many occupations allow you to do that?
They say every picture tells a story. I invite you to view my images and the stories that they tell...
