The Photographer

PROFESSIONAL AFFILIATIONS  -  DPPA, TPPA, SWPPA

I have been a lover of nature and the outdoors all of my life. Raised a city kid in Arizona, I love the desert, it's fauna and creatures, the distant mountains and the vast reservation lands in the upper northern parts of the state. This beauty appealed to my artistic side. Commercial Art and Fine Art Painting became my majors at Arizona State University.

In 1996, I returned to my roots, film photography. While I transitioned to digital imaging in 2005, I did continue using 35mm and medium format film personally and per client request. I continue to work today out of my studio in Allen, TX.  The images on this site are taken as I travel. I enjoy every opportunity to visit the places which speak to my heart, and endeavor to capture the wonder and beauty of the locations, nature, and critters which I have been so privilaged to see.

The galleries here were created to share some of these images with you. I hope you not only enjoy them, but you are inspired to see these places for yourself, with your children, and that in turn they are inspired to help preserve these treasures for future generations.

Thank you so much for stopping by today.
