I moved to Clear Lake, IA in 2010, I never ventured from the Quad Cities, IL before. Working for Olan Mills gave me numerous photo opportunities, traveling the Midwest, camera always by my side. I have since returned to the Quad Cities and reside in Davenport at the moment.

I grew up with a dark room and a dad that taught me a lot about photography, for him it was just a hobby, for me it is now becoming a business.

I've grown a lot as a photographer, traveling for my job, my camera at my side. Now I just travel around the area and shoot whatever I think is interesting. Some of my best shots are the unexpected ones. I also do weddings, senior pics.. etc.

I'm also a published and award winning poet, I like to integrate lines from my poetry onto my photos as well as take portraits to accompany them.
