Photography has been my full time profession since 1972. I am primarily a photographer of people, having done news, editorial, entertainment, advertising, and corporate work. I'm always looking for new ways to express my artistic vision. I have a studio in an old warehouse in Detroit, which offers lots of interesting shooting possibilities, and I love shooting on location. I also teach photography at a community college near Detroit. I love what I do. I love to shoot and I have a lot of fun at it, but I also take my work very seriously. Part of the reason my career has lasted this long is because of the quality of my work. Another reason is that I deliver on my word and I treat people with respect and a professional attitude. I expect the same from the people I work with.
If you like what you see here I hope you'll contact me. I'm certain that I can offer high quality work that will enhance your portfolio. I will do TFCD, but very selectively.
