ABOUT THE ARTIST

Photography has expanded my awareness and Beingness and my appreciation for being alive. I love capturing the beauty of people, nature and life. I am in constant fascination. Photography is my passion. 

My photography has taken me around the world from across the United States to the People's Republic of China, Hong Kong, Japan, down to Australia, and across to Spain.

Photography has given me an acute awareness and insightfulness into people and situations. I shoot with the eye of a hunter. Patient, quick, accurate to capture the moment the subject reveals its unique beauty.

I strive to capture the life, the beauty, the art, and the truth in people and situations. I’m friendly and professional. I like to bring out and capture the best in people. Get them to express themselves and bring out their ability to look at themselves with respect.

Parts of my portfolio contain vintage photos of Classic Rock and Roll Bands including the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, The Eagles, Jethro Tull and others.

My photography portfolio and experience also includes celebrities on the red carpet, landscapes, sunsets, classic cars and more.

Here are some of the celebrity events I have been credentialed to photograph:

In addition to being a professional photographer, I am a retired multiple, board-certified foot surgeon, Podiatrist.  My biography has been included in prestigious records such as The American Biographical Institute; National Registry of Who's Who; Who's Who Among Outstanding American Personalities of the West and Midwest; Certificate of Merit for Distinguished Service to the Community, Vol XVI; Dictionary of International Biography - Cambridge, England, Leadership and Achievement Award, Strathmore's Who's Who; Outstanding Community Service Award by the National Health Education Fitness Program; University of Madrid, Spain, Book of Honor; Certificate of Merit for Distinguished Service, International Biographical Centre, Cambridge, England.
