About Me...
First thing you must know about me is that I love to have a good time, enjoy what I do, and always put my best foot forward. One of my favorite things is to put a smile on the face of the company I keep. I love my family and friends, music, movies (Stallone being the greatest thespian of our time), ferrets, my pup Luna, a good conspiracy theory, and old Looney Tunes Cartoons. But the biggest satisfaction comes from completing a good honest day's work.
Before finding my way to imaging, the earlier part of my life saw me playing in a few bands, allowing me the chance to see a big part of this wonderful country and to meet so many of my musical idols. Music still holds a significant place in my heart and continues to be a huge influence on my life. It was through music that I started to fall in love with photography, so much so that it took over my love affair with playing it live. I made the choice to jump feet first and was fortunate enough to learn and work with some of the most talented photographers the industry has to offer, as well as with some elite hi-end clients.
My journey has been a vibrant tapestry woven with melodies, images, and a relentless pursuit of excellence.
