ABOUT ME
Biography
“Photography is the story I fail to put into words.” ~ Destin Sparks
Although I do travel to various places from time to time, I am normally located in North Georgia, USA, providing quality, professional portrait, event, wildlife, and landscape photography services. Always somewhat artistic in my youth, drawing, painting etc., my passion for photography was ignited when, just before my freshman year in high school, my father gave me an old Konica 35mm camera and a couple of telephoto lenses. Although it was put on hold for a few years while I served in the US Marines as a KC-130 technician, aircrew member, and instructor, I never lost the love of photography.
“If it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing right, the first time,” my father would say. As an emerging, award winning photographer, I have never forgotten this and apply it, along with my life experiences and lessons learned, to everything that I do.
Not being much of a writer, photography has become my medium for capturing and expressing those precious moments in time. I am a simple man, and enjoy spending time with my wife, of more than 27 years, family, hiking, camping, biking, reading, traditional archery and, well, just about anything involving the outdoors.
I provide services for the following: family sessions, corporate portraits, special occasions, boudoir, as well as some landscape and wildlife. I especially enjoy assignments where I have the opportunity to travel. Please feel free to contact me with all your photography needs.
“To me, photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place… I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.”
~ Elliott Erwitt
