Artfully capturing light and shadow - A love affair with people, places and things.
Photography is a strong passion of mine. It's a cherished craft that I have developed for quite some time. I started with the fundamentals of manual photography and darkroom techniques. Back then, I was simply studying the tools and digesting the principals. During the last few years, I have really established a stylistic approach to my shooting that has fueled my desire to try new techniques and processes even further. My goal is to amass a repertoire of photographic disciplines, approaches, and styles that allow me to creatively express how I see my subject.

Today's digital photography boon has really accelerated what is possible, as well as enabling dramatic efficiencies and quality improvements. I am currently shooting with a Canon 5D DSLR; in RAW and editing in the Adobe Photoshop CS3 suite. Both in the camera and in post production, I have amazing control over virtually all aspects of the photographic capture. I'm experienced in shooting in controlled studio settings as well as natural light environments. End
