I lead a fashion photography group which meets regularly in Roswell for a friendly and competitive photo shoot. We collaborate with the Capricious boutique (a high fashion European boutique), several high-style hair salons, and various make-up artists to provide our models with high fashion looks for our photo shoots. Experienced models are encouraged to check my casting calls and contact me for more information.

My photography dates back to high school where I processed  B&W film and prints and mastered the zone system.  Early works included artistic nude and fine art photography.  In college my traditional thinking was challenged by the surrealism influence of Jerry Uelsmann at the University of Florida and guest lecturers including Robert Heineken from UCLA. I've also had the pleasure of learning from and studying under great photographers including David Alan Harvey (documentary), Elizabeth Opalenik (fine art), Perry Dilbeck (fine art documentary), William Albert Allard (documentary) and others. 

My recent work involves glamour, fashion and documentary style photography shot in the studio and on location.  I enjoy photographing people and telling a story with photographs.  In the spirit of great portrait photographers Richard Avedon and Patrick Demarchelier, it is important for me to develop a rapport with my subject so I can capture a personal and intimate moment.  Much of my fine art photography is inspired by Helmut Newton.

Capturing the image is only the first step in creating a unique work of art. Just as film photographers selected particular films, papers and development chemistry for their contrast or color characteristics, I finish my photographs with a distinctive style in the digital darkroom.

I try to keep my "Friends List" manageable so, if you send me a friend request and I don't know you or have not worked with you, you should send me a note to explain your interest.

























Hopefully if you have read this far you are interested in finding out more than if I can make a good pic. I am a professional and I expect those I work with to be professional. If we decide to work together... don't flake out you won't get a second chance.
