I'm just having fun exploring the world around me with my camera. My main thrust in photography has always been landscape, wildlife, sports, product and travel photography. I'm shooting more and more for myself and leaning more toward fine art photography. I have been having fun combining that nature photography with portraiture and glamour over the last few years.

My fine art projects tend to be a little more involved than most normal studio photo sessions. Models aren't likley to be going through a range of poses in front of a seamless background. We'll be working to create the image and concept planned well before we start shooting.

Of course paid work is great; but, I may except TFP/TFCD also on a limited bases. I'm pretty open to almost any ideas and concepts.

	Oh yeah, film you can get really creative with such as creating multiple shadows, duplicates of the same person, etc. Digital cameras, you HAVE to have photoshop for that and takes tons of time versus film and a couple of hours. I would love to...ha ha the closest I'm going is Colorado Springs next month
