Objective
|
|
I've been shooting professionally since 1983. I can shoot just about anything,digital, 35mm up to large format. Most of my career I've shot people in one way or another. From portraits of one person to groups in the hundreds. I've shot a lot of events. From weddings and parties to conventions and marathons. I am a "go to" kind of guy that will get the job done. I'm looking for a career opportunity that is creatively as well as financially rewarding. You can check out some of my recent work at
