A love of photography started early for me, when my father handed down his Yashica Electro 35, just before our summer vacation in Yosemite.

The way the light hit Half Dome at sunset completely entranced me.

I am still chasing that same amazing light today.

There were many other interests as I grew up, but photography was always the mainstay.

Working for the yearbook and being the go-to for high school senior portraits led most people to believe I would be a photographer. They were right.

Honestly, there has never been a moment that I did not think I’d do this for a living, and I am ever grateful that I have been able to have this as a career.

I have worked in commercial photography for twenty five years, taking on editorial, ad campaigns, fashion/apparel, location/lifestyle and tabletop product shoots.

It has been a dream come true to make a living from a childhood hobby that turned into a passion, but it has been the last ten years that I have truly found my stride, by balancing commercial work with personal travel photo projects.

My excursions to Senegal, Nepal, Peru and Mongolia have helped ignite the love for photography once again, and have culminated in numerous gallery shows, with multiple sales of prints.

To be paid for commercial work is a great feeling, but to sell a six foot print of a Mongolian Eagle Hunter to someone’s private art collection is…sublime.

When I am not working on photography, you will most likely find me tinkering with one of my vintage roadsters(one of them is British, so LOTS of tinkering), trying to explain to the ten and eleven year old why Nirvana was the most important band of the last thirty years(they’re not buying it), or continuing my pursuit of perfecting ramen(it’s all about the dashi).

I am Boston area based, with my studio located in Waltham, MA.  I have an amazing team and we all love what we do. This year is looking to be more outside the studio, on location, and I couldn’t be happier.
