Thanks for perusing and visiting my port.  I shoot from mild to wild, classy to trashy, sexy to sassy, and timeless to tasteless.  I don't stick to any one style.  My port is a variety show, without uniformity.  Whatever pleases my eyes and inspires me, that's what I'll shoot. 

Many of my photos require advanced planning; I'm not able to pick up the camera and just shoot.  From the outfit/costume, to communicating with the model, location selection, to the actual shoot, then a lot of work after the shoot.  In the process, I try to have fun.  I always greet you with a sunny smile and try to make my models laugh and shoot in a very relaxed environment and atmosphere.

My background is accounting and cinema-television from the University of Southern California (USC).  I am a member of the Screen Actors Guild/American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) for many years.  I am also a radio personality here in L.A.

Thanks for taking the time to read the written part of my port. 

Lastly, I leave you with this: 

We don't make a photograph just with a camera; we bring to the act of photography all the books we have read, the movies we have seen, the music we have heard, and the people we have loved.
