The first memory I have of photography is a photo of me holding a camera taking a picture of my dad who was taking a picture of me. 

Growing up, my time was split between NY and California, eventually graduating from Syracuse University and having the good fortune of spending a year abroad in London and Madrid, where the love of photography really took hold.

My photo career started in NYC, but after 9/11 I moved west to be closer to family. I love city life, my favorite place to be is the ocean, and I somehow found all things I didn’t know I needed in the desert of the southwest. I met my wife, and together we built and ran a successful restaurant/bar for 18 years while creating a family - always holding space for photography, especially live events. We sold the restaurant/bar to simplify life, so I now have time to take on photo projects when the right ones present themselves.

Thanks for taking a moment to view my work.
