About
I have been in the photography industry for eighteen years. My work has been recognized both nationally and internationally. As a National, Award-Winning Photographer, I have photographed all over the United States and internationally. My wedding photography has appeared in several national photography magazines and leading online photography websites. I specialize in weddings, portraits, corporate, commercial, pet, executives, products and food photography.
I am passionate about helping others learn how to better understand their camera, the ins and outs of lighting, and how to capture stunning images.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
My first question to my student is "What is the most important thing that you want to learn"?
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have owned my company for eighteen years, and was recognized as one of the top wedding photographers in the country; I have more expereince than most. I have photographed over 1,000 weddings and literally thousands of family portraits. I learned photography shooting film, which was very unforgiving. I am also very experienced with Photoshop.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I charge $125 per hour, or $200 for a two hour session.
How did you get started teaching?
I had been asked for many years to teach photography lessons by my clients. I agreed to teach after a previous bride of mine called me to purchase a gift certificate for her father, who was passionate about photography, but didn't really know where to begin.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with professionals, amatuers and complete newbies.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
When looking for the perfect photography teacher, learn from a true professional. You want to hire a pro that has been in the trenches, someone who truly knows lighting. Lighting is key!
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Every student is different.
