A New York City based Storyteller.

I was trained in dark rooms and photo labs using manual SLRs. Today I keep that practice alive by using my manual cameras while I travel, but I don't limit my photographic eye to such gear. I keep the shutter clicking as I take photographs with any device, but I still have a strong preference to manual cameras. Through photography I have experienced great opportunities. I have traveled the world, I have met many inspiring people, and I have photographed talented artist, performers and models. The images I have permanently captured are an extension of my thoughts, and my perception of the world. Photography has also furnished a desire to learn other trades, such as graphic design and video editing which are other tools I use to express my creativity. I have acquired a very large collection of photographs both film and digital, I think it's only right to share them with the world. Feast Your EYES |

I specially love to capture motion in a still photograph. Here is an example of the Las Vegas skyline at dusk. Below the squiggly yellow lines lies the city, gray and condensed. I have captured the electric energy of Las Vegas in an abstract way, but the colors are serene. This was accomplished whilst in the air on a helicopter. It was my first experience with aerial photography and some thing that you will see reoccurring in my work. After this experience I have gone out of my way to photograph the many outlines of the world as I travel through the skies. .
