About
I have worked as a portrait, wedding and fine art photographer since 2000. I have also taught high school students dark room work (film), digital techniques (Photoshop and in camera), outdoor photography, and the art of studio photography.
For the last few years, I have stepped back from the field to write a novel. I still enjoy teaching occasionally if the student and I are the right fit!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I like to find out his/her short and long term goals; what they hope to learn and what some of their artistic sensibilities are. I also want to learn about their equipment, and what their availability is for sessions.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have taught mini-class sessions for years to junior and high school students. These included studio lighting, Photoshop work, how to take a great photograph, dark room work (back in the film days), and digital photography tips and tricks.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I charge $30/hour plus reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses (like ferry).
How did you get started teaching?
I was asked if I would teach introduction to Photography to some 9th graders in the North Kitsap Options Program.
What types of students have you worked with?
Middle and high school students mostly, although I tutored adults in the “Shoot Wild Kitsap” program a few years back.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I shot Antelope Canyon in northern Arizona early this summer~a true photographer’s dream!
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Be clear going in about what you’d like to learn.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Come with a list of camera equipment as well as software you expect to use. Spend some time looking at photographs you admire and be prepared to share them with the teacher so goals can be created on what to aspire to.
