I started photography with the seventies equivalent of the brownie box camera, a Kodak instamatic found at a yard sale for two dollars. This was an amazing sum of money for an eight year old, who's primary source of income was from change found in the sofa and the occasional lucky penny on the street.

Those early pictures were very typical of any other eight year old: my dog, a scary looking tree, a blurry picture of my mom, but I was enthralled by it. Photography quickly became one of the many things I loved to do. As I grew, like many kids, my interests came and went, but photography was one that was just always a part of me.

After graduating from The College of William and Mary with a BS Degree in Environmental Science, I slowly started my photographic career by assisting and working with the top photographers in the Washington DC area. I eagerly soaked up the technical and business knowledge they could provide, as well as more than a few tricks of the trade. With ideas and dreams of my own, I took the plunge and started my own business.

For over fifteen years now, I have been producing photography for advertising, corporate and editorial clients. I enjoy the challenge of creating images that communicate ideas and express emotions. Images that tell my client's story.

When not shooting, you can usually find me with my wife and our three children. They too are experiencing the joys of a good yard sale, however, I haven't found another good camera at one since.
