I received my first camera as a gift for my 12th birthday. It was a Kodak Instamatic 104 that used the drop in cartridge film and Flash Cubes. I have been hooked ever since.

In 1996 I was asked to speak about my style of glamour photography at a local camera club meeting. This sparked an interest in training and teaching that I have pursued ever since. I now do workshops and seminars in addition to my photography.

I currently work on producing Fine-Art Portfolios. I prefer working with individuals and models to create images the resonate for them.

I created a workshop back in 2001 (that is still running) called The Arizona Shootout (AZSO). It is a weekend long shooting event for both beginner and amateur photographers to learn to be better shooters as well as for seasoned pros to get new portfolio images.

Personal Stuff

Hobbies Cooking | Grilling | Food I love to cook and I really love to eat. I guess you could cooking a 'Hobby' for me. I love to cook and to grill. After several years of trying I have developed my own dry-rub for beef & pork. I also make a wicked pumpkin cheesecake. Currently, I am working on my pizza dough and pizza sauce recipes. I really enjoy playing with recipes and improvising as I cook. This section of my site will cover some of the recipes that I like and enjoy sharing with friends. There are a few recipes here that involve baking. I am not really much of a baker. However on occasion I do make an attempt to bake. Music I enjoy live music. Concerts, local bands at bars, street-corner musicians, it doesn't matter. Actually being present when someone creates music is both a pleasure and a honor. I have attended many concerts over the years, and each was special in its own way.
