Why should you work with me?

Because I am inventive, tenacious, demanding of myself, and easy to work with. Because I have been doing this long enough to know to take the work seriously and myself not too seriously.

Whether the assignment is a portrait, editorial coverage of a complexly felt and not easily visualized story, an architectural study, an advertisement, or for a corporate identity brochure, my goal is to make images that tell the story in a visually compelling manner. My goal is simply to stop the eye of the viewer. In a world flooded with visual messages, mine is simple: “Consider this.”
