I began a serious study of photography in the summer of 1998. Although my first few months as a photographer were a struggle, I came to love this art form. Once I understood the tricks of the trade, the mechanics of my camera and the equipment of the darkroom became a beautiful outlet for my creativity. As an artist, I have worked mostly with black and white photography. However, I recently begun using my color photographs as a basis for my other artwork.

The photographs in this collection are ones that I believe can be considered true artworks. Each piece was carefully composed to accentuate the elements of art and the principles of design. I am happy to say that I personally developed each roll of film and printed each print myself. I can only hope that you will enjoy the pieces as much as I enjoyed creating them.
