My first introduction to photography was when I was a small child growing up in New Jersey. My grandmother would take me on a road trip and let me take pictures with her old Kodak Brownie. I remember the excitement of being able to capture a picture with film and the impatience of waiting for the images to come back from the lab. Ever since I have been hooked! The majority of my life photography was a creative outlet with minimal formal training and tons of hands on experience, which was later perfected through college level classes, apprenticeships, then work experience. Officially my career as a photographer didn’t begin until I finished my field studies in Nepal and India with the University of Wisconsin in 2001. I majored in Anthropology and minored in photography while I spent a year living and traveling through the Himalayas documenting many different aspects of life. Shortly after my diverse interests and zest for life fostered my career by bringing a subject medium to focus as a documentary photographer and I began to hone my craft with the aid of a veteran photographer in Katmandu Valley by the name of Mani Lama. My natural talent as an artist and the varied photographic skills I have acquired over the years combined with my personal approach to how I do business with every client has allowed me to work as a successful freelance artist. I have had the honor of being published several times and have completed a diverse style of imaging work for many clients ranging from; weddings and events, in water shots of surfing and sports, stock and commercial photography, and on-site portraits. Whether you wish to capture a special moment in time or need images for a catalog and advertisement I take pride knowing that I can assist you with my expertise.
