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, my favorite place to be is the ocean, and yet 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. We sold the restaurant/bar to focus on simplifying life, spending more time just being.
I love the moments that connect and reflect life, when (aware or unaware) a subject connects with my lens, and for a brief moment, everything seems as it should be.
The diversity of my work in music, advertising, beauty, fashion, and documentary has allowed me to witness and many of the different forms life can pulsate.
Thanks for taking a moment to view my work.
