My interest in photography started while I was in high school. The small town where I grew up had a studio photographer that also sold cameras and photography supplies. The owner gave me my first training. The high school needed a school photographer for its newspaper and its yearbook, the local newspaper needed someone to chase wrecks and take sports pictures. That is when I became a “Photographer.”

Throughout my life, my interest in photography and art continued with the main interest being landscape and fine art. During 1984 - 1985, I studied with the New York Institute of Photography. The instructors there gave me a whole new insight to lighting and composition.

Most recently, my work is landscape, fine art, portraiture, architectural, and event photography. Turning a photograph, whether it is landscape or people, into a piece of fine art is exciting.
