Testimonials

If Robert were a baseball player (as was Honus) he would be the guy you go to the game to see. Not the long ball hitter but a place-hitter who gets the job done and whom you can count on in a clutch. Without a doubt the guy who begins and ends his career on the same team. IMO his photography shows a good conscious e… Read more

If Robert were a baseball player (as was Honus) he would be the guy you go to the game to see. Not the long ball hitter but a place-hitter who gets the job done and whom you can count on in a clutch. Without a doubt the guy who begins and ends his career on the same team. IMO his photography shows a good conscious effort to look at and show the world around him in a straight-forward but well defined way that hints at depth rather than digging it up and throwing it in your face. No sensationalism, no major attempt at creating the most striking image of the year that some would-be photogs seem intent on creating, usually ending up with silly cloned images. I am sure Robert loves the world around him and the people too, the normal people, the real people...people like him. Hats off to Robert and also a personal thanks for his kindness, sympathetic ear and good, objective advice and input when these were asked for. On the testimonials we read: "_Honus_ will have the chance to review this testimonial before it is published, so don't bother with something rude or nasty." Believe me, nobody would want to write something rude or nasty about Robert...

Robert's photography is imbued with the very characteristics I find in him as a person: deeply humanistic, hopeful, courageous, respectful, gently humorous. His Black & White vision is a sanctuary that soothes the senses with discreet attention to detail and subtle emotion. His frames unfold with the pace of meditative breathing while the everyday is disclosed spontaneously in its mystery and poetic beauty. Robert's appreciation for the properties of light, as well as his developing mastery, contribute to a kind of photography that feels luminous and breezy. Yet, even if upbeat in tone, his images do not shy away from the difficult facts of life, and ultimately deliver a message of compassion and profound understanding. I look at his work for inspiration and at him with great admiration.

I've never met Robert in person, but I've seen his world through the lenses of his cameras, and it's a world of compassion, meaning, and subtle beauty. He's one of my favourite contemporary photographers. Although he's an excellent craftsman, he goes beyond craft, showing us our humanity.

Robert produces work that is both technically accomplished and thoughtful. More importantly, his kindness and gentleness is evident in how he sees and captures his world.
