My Story


A West Virginia native, born and raised, I caught the photography bug in sixth grade with a Kodak Instamatic Camera. By the time I was a junior in high school, I bought my first all manual SLR film camera. I learned photography the hard way with this camera. To date, I have been into photography for nearly 40 years and have been professional for six years. I have won numerous awards, been published in various publications (including the Wonderful West Virginia magazine), and have recently been accepted as a juried artisan at Tamarck Marketplace. My goal is to turn your ideas into images!
