About Me
I've been a photography enthusiast for over 30 years, only recently translating this into a small commercial side business. Though I still love traveling and capturing images of the wonderful places we've visited, I find it extremely rewarding to photograph people (their reactions are so much more fullfilling than, say, the reaction of a tree or mountain). Taking good portraits is also among the most difficult things I've ever done. I agree with Greg Gorman when he says that it's 50% photography and 50 % psychiatry.

In my commercial work, I focus primarily on fashion and beauty portraiture with some wedding work as well. Almost all my images are photoshopped. I have yet to see a perfect image come straight out of a camera, especially of a person. There's always a bit of tweaking that can be done to help someone look his/her best.
