I express my passion for life and the world through art.  To me, the creation of an image is personal and emotional, like expressing oneself through music or dance.  Each of my images must move me in some way to be complete.  I don't try to make the technically perfect print but one that conveys the emotions I am feeling about the subject.  I personally print all my timeless black and white, signature color, and artist canvases to achieve the highest quality art work.

My images are shown in art galleries and held in private collections, including The Center for Fine Art Photography Permanent Collection.  I have won numerous awards in juried art shows, including:  

• Two-time First Place Awards for Best of Professional and Best of Division, Orange County Fair
• Best of Show, Orange County Fair
• Kodak Gallery Award for Illustrative Portraiture
• The Fuji Masterpiece Award for the Western United States
• First Place, Echoes and Visions
• First Place, Orange County Fine Arts Competition
• Finalist, Sony International Digital Art Exhibition
• six-Year Exhibitor, Laguna Beach Festival of Arts

I hold a Business and Arts Degree from the Professional
Photographers of California and am a Fellow of the
Professional Photographers of California.
