This is my business principle:
"Beautifully composed and lit photographs are magnificent.
They do more than just record the passage of time, of emotion, of place. They tell the story."
Quality Never Goes Out of Style!

I am dynamic and energetic, with an entrepreneurial style; I specializes in creative photography. I love creating images of people and experimenting with different programs on still life photography. Plus, I am an excellent facial retoucher. You will be pleased with my results.

If you are looking for a creative who is fun to work with, and cares about the final image, look no further. My clients trust and believe in my abilities to make a great image.

I have over 30 years of experience, and have focused on advertising, brochures, annual reports, corporate newsletters and editorial photography. I am a hard-charger with the uncanny and intuitive ability to put subjects at ease during photo shoots. Combining the latest in photo technology with an old-fashioned emphasis on quality, my work guarantees customer satisfaction and loyalty. I am also available for commissioned portraits.
